Doncaster have signed Oliver Greensmith on a season long known; I don’t know a lot about him other than he’s a centre

Big lad at 6”4 17stone very good looking takes after his dad



Should have been given a chance last year but for whatever reasons didn’t.

He’s been ripping it up at donny in training, been there 2 weeks

Cheers

Hope Oli goes well. Be great experience for him.

Tbh I think it’s good for him, let’s just pray he doesn’t get injured like Croft. Hope he rips it up

Being a little cynical now, this might happen soon on a permanent basis, ie, if we loose the academy & have no A team, how would we

Play him/train him/learn him ready for first team ability? We cannot play everyone ready for the first team ! Happy days to come ?

Can only be of benefit to the lad and the club. It’s a tough enough sport to break through in without spending another year just training and not getting match time

Totally agree, not so sure the cannonball tackles are as well policed in lower leagues...not that I'm saying that's what happened to Jack Croft as I wasn't there and haven't heard how his injury happened

He had a very good debut, scored two and got man of the match

I think that proves he can play against the “misters” needed to stand out in a league one game and certainly did, played well made plenty of post contact metres, quick plays of the ball scored a couple of try’s, made a couple of crucial tackles and got donny out of trouble a couple of times. Topped off with MOM from Paul Cooke who couldn’t stop talking about him all game

Not sure if hes ready for sl but i got some other week for saying he should be given a chance although not a winger he could be better than 2 currently playing (can play reece on wing) so im glad hes gone well thought he looked good v dewsbury and how does any one know hes ready without getting a chance

played out of position in a team he's trained with the 4 times and was a stand out performer in his first game in over 14 months (with the exception of half an hour against Dewsbury in a pre-season friendly) I think he's answered that question for sure.
