Back to League action , interesting to see who will be in the 19 named on Friday.
I'm sure the fans will get behind the team and hope we can cheer them onto a victory , there is much soul searching going on at the moment by fans and no doubt players , coaches & I hope management.

The quality of players we are getting from Hull has dropped.
We need Feka and Abdul, the rest are just bodies to fill holes.
No disrespect, but they are too junior at the moment for a place in a very unsettled side like ours.
Our organisation has gone, three young lads will find it hard to put that right.
Similarly the Delaneys and their donkey will also find it hard.
They will be playing behind a beaten pack, one of the most ordinary and ineffective in this league, a league I might add is once again a lot harder than we envisaged.
There is little they can do if the forwards can't bash up the opposition first.

London marmalised us in this sector. They had big guys at least four and we had? Aizue and a match unfit Cas.
Hardly a contest was it.

NWC are in a bad place at the moment, but if they are half ORGANISED and got some size, we are toast.

We have ballsed up two areas ... the forwards and the halfbacks.
Coupled with injuries and lack of talent and enthusiasm, it is hardly surprising Shoitesville Arizona has come to Doncaster.

I hope the Dons can put some real effort into this game and win.
I doubt it will make good viewing though.

Doubt we will get Feka he seems to be a further up the pecking order at the moment !

Sherrif a must at full back for me .

COYD

Think you will get both Feka and Abdul dont know who else.
Feka in the HFC 19 but wont play on Friday unless we have an injury during training tomorrow.

The fans, Carl, coaches, and players could all do with a win this weekend to lift our spirits.

North Wales aren't in a great place at the moment either.

Even the top sides struggle when they can't get their better players on the pitch. Let's hope we can find enough to win this one.

No news of Mason Tonks this week , hope he is fit , a good signing .

Squads for Sunday:

Dean 1 Johnson
Sheriff 2 Massam
Tali 3 Hurst
L. Welham 4 Oakden
Doherty 5 S. Turner
B. Delaney 6 S. Turner
Carr 7 Smith
Aizue 8 Hansen
Kesik 9 Walker
Braham 10 Hudson
Kelly 11 Holland
Tonks 12 Thompson
Picketts 13 Wild
Castle 14 Warburton
Nicholson 15 Davies
J. Delaney 16 Joy
Cross 17 Liku
Scott 18 Millington
Walton. 19 Baker.

Interesting to see that only Reece Dean has made it from Hull.

It looks like we might only be three players short of what could perhaps be described as our best starting 17?

Carr, Kesik, Nicholson, Doherty & Scott back from injury , Zac recalled .

Stronger squad .

COYD

Wow, this is more like a squad.
I might go now.

Dons - 20 @ 10/11 with Bet365.

hiya peeps, for the first time in many years Im not "buzzin" about going to watch the team I have followed for more years than I can remember. For me to have a good day today I need to see a team of entirely DONS players , playing good open rugby, passing the ball, being creative, defending as a team good discipline, showing the fans that they are proud to be wearing the Donny shirt, A good win, players giving everything 100% effort 100% of the time. Nothing else will do. Maybe then I will have something to smile about. COYDs
