You say that, but the only time anyone notices you're there is when you walk out with 30 minutes to go



(Although you are right, I wish we had more gobby gets...I've ranted before about the lack of noisy young blood. We need an academy system)

Cut out the needless penalties

Well, here we are again peeps, last league match of the season and may l say this has got to have been one of the best in my 30 odd yrs of supporting the "dons". l think regardless of todays result (obviously we want to win ) to finish poss, second maybe third and at least fourth is more than we hoped for at the start of the season. l want to say a very big well done to all the players and staff and us the supporters for the many good results this year (leigh at home was prob, the best, will be in my memory bank forever) looking forward to today and then the play offs. so see you there good luck to the lads and come on you DONS !

Agree with Harworthdon. We've exceeded expectations by a wide margin and the club deserve enormous credit for what they've achieved.

This season has seen a progression from last season which will hopefully be carried on into next season. As each season passes, the challenge to progress gets even harder, but with increased funding for next season, we've got even more reason to think we should be able to improve the squad and do well again.

I'm sad the league season is ending. The off-season will be a long one but we're not done yet with this season. Really looking forward to today's game. I like Batley and John Kear. I hope they don't go down but we need to win this game too!

It should be be an open, entertaining game. The Dons tactics perhaps ought to be to make sure we boss the forwards and slow their play the balls down, keep them under pressure and force them to push the game. If we do a good job and pressure them into making mistakes, we can get them on the back foot and score a few points.

We can't afford them to get on a roll (like Swinton) or else we could be on the back foot.

From our point of view, it's probably important we don't get any injuries today, although I'm sure the players won't be looking beyond today and will see this as a must win game.

I hope the season ticket sales go really well today. It's a great offer and again the club need to be given credit for keeping prices down and helping to make rugby in Doncaster affordable for us.

i've gone for that but added Cas at -14 for 24.36/1

eagles now -18

Cheers Karlos and good luck.

Could be a few ex dons players playing for Batley today.

Alex Rowe being one i have always rated. We will need to wrap him up.

Handicap Betting;

Bet365 have moved the line and now ask the Dons to concede 6 points (was

.

I'm on!

Yes, Ayden Faal, Wayne Reittie & Josh Johnson are all at Batley.

It's their cup final, they are going to give it everything .... they ought to bring a few fans on that basis.
We are playing for a possible third place and avoid Leigh or second with more dosh.
I am not sure we will have as much desire, but we ought to be more relaxed and play some rugby.

Well I am sure they will have the desire !

Absolute garbage.
If can't get up for £150K you need shafting.

They wanted it a damn sight more than us; that's 6 points we gave them in the last two weeks.

But the worst thing today was the Donny walk outs; we've finished fourth in a season we were aiming to get in the top eight. And all that deserves was a trudge for the exits with 5 minutes to go. I wouldn't want to put my body on the line for us lot either
