| Steve Snitch had a great game and gave us some go forward when we very much needed it.
Richard Wilkinson is developing into a very good player. He was an excellent find for us.
The team stuck at it very well again today. Great credit to everyone involved.
Hopefully, this should give us the momentum and added self-belief to have a good crack at coming second behind Leigh.
Great to see so many Leigh fans at the game. The atmosphere was excellent.
I feel sorry for all the poor Donny folk who don't get down to the Keepmoat to watch. Rugby is such a fantastic sport to watch live!!

| Best team won, well done to you. Probably the best Dons turnout I've seen at the Keepmoat as well and certainly the loudest - made a nice change to have a bit of a singing contest!

Cheers mate. I thought we rode our luck at times but our effort was first class.
The atmosphere was really good and it was great to see so many Leigh fans make the trip. Many of our games have had next to no away fans. A bit of friendly banter adds certainly adds to the atmosphere.
Good luck for the rest of the season. You've got a cracking side and fully deserve your place at the top.

| Leigh top class side.
We got what i didn't really expect today.
But we just deserved it on that last 15 minute effort we put in to keep leigh out who pressed really hard.
Good luck for the rest of the season to leigh i also thought there supporters were fantastic. A great atmosphere just slightly better than castle park

| Superb battling performance today. Never stopped in the last 15 minutes. What was Emmett thinking at the death though?! We thought that was it then the luck we have had closing games out over the years then Crookesy going full length gives you one of those celebrations that lasts long in the memory!
Everyone has mentioned Snitch and Wilko and they were the ones who stood out but all 17 were excellent today especially in the second half.
Also well done to Jacob Miller.Thought he played well today. With him I think its just a confidence thing and a performance like that today will do him no harm at all.
Also as a foot note it was good to get a good choir turnout today. Its the first time in a while we have all been there at the same match.Well done lads!

| What a win superb second half. I did say get the ball to crookes,Hodson 2 apiece no substitute for pace! Snitch was outstanding,as we're the other 16.wilko was as shocked as me that he got MOM. But well done,Miller was good today!

| Well done lads
Cant fault the effort.
TBH I think we could have made it more comfortable had we had a bit more ideas around the try line, just looked a bit unsure.
Wilko has flashes of brilliance and flashes of what the hell.... I think time spent on his mental state may be worthwhile. He needs to crack on if things don't go right, seems to dwell on it a bit, likewise have the confidence to back himself because when he does he is devastating.
All played well, Snitch, Kez and Robbo had massive games, and despite the usually silly things from Mike, he did get under Leigh's skin.
Finally I have been critical of Miller and TBH I don't think he was anything special today but he did improve and certainly put body on line.... but for Christ sake lad get some proper studs and ditch the pointless flash boots which have soles of glass...
I just think we looked that bit keener and surprisingly fitter in the last 20 mins....
I hope the guys get a bonus if we finish 2nd because even at 2k a piece it still pays for itself 10 times over...
Well done all a bl**dy great day out..
And well done Leigh for their part and decent banter..

| Well done Donny, if it had to be anyone im glad it was the Dons, you have upset my Sunday night beers but well deserved and all credit to you as a club.
Make sure you nail second now please as the Championship needs a strong Doncaster.
Bring back Audley Pennant!

thanks.
i think you should win top spot and deservedly so.
As for us finishing 2nd it will take some luck from other games i think, plus we need to win all our remaining games i think to have a chance.
