| Well here we go with the next game thread.
Firstly, it looks like it will be different weather to the weather we enjoyed last Sunday.
Secondly, I can't remember us winning much at Barrow.
So the elements and history are against us.
Last Sunday I was very confident that we would beat Whitehaven, but this time I think we are underdogs.
I would settle for a bonus point.
As I have previously said, If we can win there I think we would be pretty much unstoppable.
What do we think?

| Obviously this will be a very tough encounter but if we don't win it will not be the end of the world as i think all of the promtion contenders will suffer a few ups and downs throughout the year. The main thing is that we go out and give a competitive performance, what ever the outcome. Having said that i feel that we are capable of beating anyone in this division.

| Hardest game of the season for me, if we win we should have all the confidence in the world for the rest of the campaign. If we're competitive for large portions and get anything it will not be a bad sign.

| Match Preview
Doncaster RLFC make the long journey to Cumbria on Sunday to face Barrow Raiders in the Co-operative Championship One clash at Craven Park (3pm kick-off).
The Dons enjoyed a winning start to their league campaign last weekend with an impressive 48-16 victory over much fancied Whitehaven. The Raiders have also been tipped for promotion in 2012 and secured their opening day points with a hard fought 26-24 away win over North Wales Crusaders.
The big blow for the Dons is that second rower Carl Hughes will be out of action for at least three months after badly dislocating his shoulder last weekend. However, Grant Edwards (knee) and Liam Cunningham (shin) are both expected to be available for selection.
Dons' head coach Tony Miller said to view match day ticket information and prices.

| Is Burnett fit , no mention of him in early news this week. Would be an ideal replacement for Carl Hughes.

| I agree with others that this will be a much tougher test than whitehaven though am not convvinced these will be our toughest of season - personally I think that could be workington but I could be wrong. I think these guys will be very strong and I will settle for a bonus point, but with a bit of luck the win is not beyond us.

| BetVictor, Paddy Power, Ladbrokes and William Hill all Dons +8 at 10/11.
As olddon says just +6.5 on Betfair. The best option remains the +8 at Evens with Bet365.
BetVictor and William Hill are best-priced for a Dons win at 5/2.
