Brian Barry-Murphy says Joel Colwill can score more goals for Cardiff after finding the net during his first Championship start. The 21-year-old's header ensured Cardiff avoided three consecutive defeats as they came from behind to draw 1-1 with Stoke City. Colwill, who scored seven goals last season, was central to Cardiff's improvement after the break, and could have snatched a winner had it not been for the post.
