Good stuff. Rob. Glad you enjoyed it. I'd like to think we've got a better chance than the numbers suggest but I think the numbers do put the challenge into some sort of perspective. Not having a 'second chance' is crucial. All you need is another incident like the sending off last Sunday and that could scupper everything.

It could be wide open Mike. I've got a weird feeling that if we can do this one then who knows....

Dons +4 10/11 with Skybet.

A Dons win is 5/4.

I'll wait to see the 17. That said I'm a bit surprised with that. Why would we not be favourites?

Hunslets current form Rob which includes the big win at Worky last week.

Dons +2 10/11 with Bet365.

Tight, but both have Hunslet as slight favourites.

Our forms not too shabby plus we're at home. If the 17 is what I hope it is then I'd back us without a doubt.

To add. Workington have dropped off badly. A trip there holds no fear. Also has anyone else done the double on them this year?

So would I Rob, my point about Hunslet was made with the hard nosed bookies hat on. They did not see the effort last week when we where 3 mins from beating Keighley, who now find themselves as the favourites for the second promotion spot in some quarters.

Workington didn't have anything to play for last week against Hunslet after Barrow had won the league the day before. The Hunslet win probably flatters them, as does the Keighley win against us. The bookies seem to have overlooked this evidence in their calculations.

Bookies odds are not set on form alone, they also take in to account betting trends, if more money is put on hunslet then the odds will be shorter



Looking forward to the game this afty and after brining Ollies granddad last week there’s a big family turnout for today’s game ans we will all be cheering on donny.
I went to the hunslet away game ans didn’t see anything from them that made me think they were any better than Doncaster, missed the home game but that was in the middle of a bit of a Covid crisis in the camp so won’t read much in to that result.
Just need to have good line speed and shut down brambini ans that should prevent hunslet from too many opportunities.
Then (but I say this every week) let the backs get the ball in the oppositions half and the scores will come


Seen you all around 4

Well I'll put my money where my mouth is and 10 quid for a Dons win at 6/5. If we win I'll put the winnings on a win at North Wales.
