Good atmosphere at the racecourse ground on a very hot day-the two sides looked evenly matched in the first half as the score line suggested-but the Dons improved their performance all-round in the second-half and fully deserved the win.
Robinson,Spiers and Fawcett oustanding for me.

Mathematically speaking:

We need to win 6 our last 8 games, and that is assuming Oldham win all 9 of theirs. In the case we would be tied on points (give or take bonus points/points difference).

6 wins and a bonus point for us, seals the deal.

Put it another way, Oldham need to win 3 more games than us over the second half of the season

As already mentioned on other posts, not much between the teams in the first half. Dropped balls and penalties were the order of the first half. Second half the guys came out and played more open flowing rugby and this showed by the result. I had to laugh because i shouted for the drop goal a few minutes from time and Supporters bus MOTM Fawcett calmly slotted over the drop goal to snatch the bonus point of them.

Well done

The way in which they set up for the drop was impressive as well, they seemed to get all of the big men either side of Powley, and his pass to Fawcett gave him more than enough time to hit it.

Is there anyone on here who over-hypes the team and how the heck would that have any bearing on how they play anyway? The simply fact of the matter is that teams like Oldham and Rochdale have too much to do to overtake the Dons.
We have Gateshead at home next....sorted.
Then soon we have Barrow and Workington at home and we want to stuff them , and will.
We could well lose at Oldham and Whitehaven. But it won't matter.
We will be promoted, or I will show my booty at half time in the first play-off game.

Yes ive thought all season it would be nice to put some faces to names, but that might be a bridge too far

Agree there.

it would be worth the fare from France to Donny just to see that...
