Yes he had a knock which kept him out

Waller my MOM to be honest he must have played over 60mins?
I think Adam was a great ball carrier and off loader but he stopped doing it and just became another forward, I would encourage Waller to keep doing it, that's what helps overlap, especially as they were putting 3 men into tackle each time.
I know he didn't play for long, but we always seem to step up a gear when Grant comes on...excellent try and some lovely passes in last 15 mins.

First Dons game for me for 2 years (I'm someone who went to most matches 2001-2009). Whilst i'll always be a Dons fan the team of course are new to me. First impressions are very good. The effort they put in yesterday must have been the same effort that won them promotion (and the title last year). I was critical of Miller on his reappointment however the team spirit he has built up is evidently a winning one.

I enjoyed the game itself, the first 20 minutes I actually thought Workington were slightly the better side and could took a hold on the game during this period, however after we got the first try we were the better side and well deserved victors.

Less than 700 is a bit disappointing, but that should start to build over the season. It is understandable the 40% drop (my guesstimate) in att over the last 10 years, but this should start moving back towards the 1,000 mark I feel.

Again nice team effort, Chris Spurrs break for the 2nd try was enjoyable, the pack seem strong. Attacking seemed like it was based on a solid foundation and George seems to have developed mini cult status already!!

All in all good day, I shall be back for the Batley game

UP THE DONS

Thats strange, because I swear he was carted backwards over the line for Wallers try with 10 minutes left, having given away both penalties just prior to that...

rlrl

No...

Definitely my imagination then...

Bloody hell that looks like a scene from the Serengeti. Pack of Hyenas onto a Buffalo.

Wallers try showed how devastating he can be if he runs hard and straight. Like the try he scored against Keighley, this is when he is at his most effective. I'd like to see more of this in his game.

I also think that fawcett and goulding shouldn't be on pitch together. I think they should be spelled, or Fawcett tried at hooker.

Right..

Some stuff..

A cracking piece of video Donny.
Many thanks.

Cheers Rob

I just think having fawcett goulding and cooke all in the team seems pointless and a waste of a substitute if you have one of the bench to rotate. Fawcett at hooker wouldnt work either. Especially when we have an hooker currently not getting game time anyway. Also good video rob.

I for one like Fawcett and think he takes the line on alot which is rare with halfs now, but agree that coming off the bench might be better for him as i think Cookey and Junior offer a better kicking game.
Big well done to our pack on sunday even without Castle i thought we were taking them back and winning every collision which is not often done against any Cumbrian forward line.

The same video as before, just this time on the Dons official YT Channel. More to come in future weeks
