I am talking in respect of other players who have left and improved as in Bateman . Whitehead and Kopout in how they have improved since leaving the bulls . Also please don't get me wrong Hull kr are in a much better position to develop Donaldson than us at the moment . It was simply a comparison to previous academy players who have left . Don't take anything in bitterness Donaldson is a great guy and wish him all the luck and as far as the robins are concerned I hope you have a great season next year .

Disappointed Donno is going, but realise that we would loose some players.. Thought his defence was superb and found him to be a decent young fellow... Wish him all the best for his future. None of us know what the Championship will bring yet it has got to be a difficult choice for a player, we do not know what happens behind the scenes.

I watched him a little bit at 18s and 21s and he had a nice short passing game. Now he's a willing defender who's not big enough. A smashing lad, good luck to him.

Donno is nothing more than a good defender,good luck to him at Hull KR though but sadly i can't see his career progressing any further than where he is at present tbh

We signed him when we were about as good as Hull KR are now, like an average team.

Can understand why he wanted to stay in Super League now we've been relegated but average will probably be as good as it ever gets for Donno.

As others have said he is a willing defender and that is it. No go forward or handling ability whatsoever. Poor lad has a lack of size holding him back too.

If we get Langley back in replacement Id be happy and Im really pleased we have kept Addy, would have been tough to take losing him, Donno not so much.

Langley is Donaldson but bigger. Peterson Walker and Addy are all in the LF frame, all with different strengths and weaknesses. Langley back would be nice but not sure it will happen.
