Sods law dictates certain things....

Take them down to the game with you! They're never too young to get a dose of rugby!

Hoping we can get a few more Dons fans there this week to watch such an important game.
The turnout v Leigh was a big shock .

COYD

You would think in this kind of weather that crowds would be a lot better. I thought there was more than 595 at the Leigh game, was surprised when it was announced . Big game in the Dons season tomorrow , hopefully a big crowd to go with it.

I think people will be taking advantage of the good weather while it is here, and going out to the coast for the day

Not good news for the dons, would be a better attendance if we had warm cloudy day IMO

But i will be there COYD
hoping for a cracking win

Forecast not quite as hot for tomorrow !

Dons v Hawks BIG Match Preview

Doncaster Rugby League Club continue their run of home games this weekend and will go up against Hunslet Hawks on Sunday 14th July at the Keepmoat Stadium (3pm kick-off).

This Kingstone Press Championship clash is a must win game for both clubs who currently find themselves at the wrong end of the table. The Dons will be looking to set the record straight after the Hawks beat them 42-22 earlier in the season.

Doncaster head coach Tony Miller is likely to have Paul Cooke, Kyle Kesik and Dennis Tuffour available for this crucial game. Club captain Kesik has missed the last five games with a knee injury, a hamstring injury has kept Tuffour out of action for three games and Cooke missed last week's 36-30 defeat against Leigh Centurions.

Danny Cowling, Liam Kay and Kyle Trout of Wakefield have been included in Miller's squad. Kay put in a tremendous performance at stand off last week in the absence of Cooke and caused Leigh's defence problems with his direct running scoring two tries in the process.

Centre Matty Dawson, who recently joined the Dons on loan from Huddersfield Giants, is available for selection after impressing on his debut last week.

Some very optimistic people on here thinking you are going to turn over Hunslet today. Have you seen the team news?

Never mind saying you are going to score 30 points I wouldn't be surprised if you were beat by 30 today. Watch this space.

I assume you are talking about the Hunslet team .

I for one donot think it will be one sided , someone mentioned try feast , but didn't suggest they would all be scored by the Dons .

We scored 30 v Leigh & finished strongly in last Sundays sun.

......and that was without about Paul Cooke. We are always a better side at home.

What about Kyle Kesik , we look a better team with him in the 17 also .

got the sunblock on now on my way to watch Donny v hunslet rhinos

What a struggle.
We won, but could have thrown it away at the death.
Pretty poor really.
More later.

Difficult game in difficult conditions , agree could have lost it, but didn't , that's what matters .

First half very poor , much improved 2nd half . The Liam Kay try was the game breaker for me.
