| Quote: Moonlight "I will second that. The pleasure that was taken from that performance will last a long time. Have to say that the decision taken by the Chief Exec and the Coach to get Cooky to the Keepmoat was priceless. The bloke was everywhere and If he missed I tackle I didn't witness it. His leadership is exactly what has been missing in previous seasons and watching him organize out on the park is a joy to watch.
Was talking to a guy in the Australian Media this morning, who watched the game on TV, he said it seemed strange that Cooke and Calderwood were down at this level, but the desire and effort from the Dons was what won through. He also said that Cookes attitude to the game has shone through, and having someone of his experience on the training ground is a great help.

| It was a good defensive effort from Doncaster but the reality is that in the end it was only 3 tries to 1. If their winger (Miller) had taken a pass just after Donny had scored and Calderwood had been allowed to play on when the ball was knocked to him by a Donny player that could so easily have been two scores. Then at the end they had an overlap of 4 to 2 and Calderwood dropped the ball. So, yes, enjoy the win but even as poorly as Workington played they could still have pinched something from the game.

Workington didn't play poorly, they were outplayed ... there is a difference.

They dont like it as Thackray was put on report for his offence.

| I don't think it was our best performance per se, however it was the best defence I have seen for a long time and a very attacking defence (if that's not too much of an oxymoron) that Workington just couldn't handle and had no plan B. As has been said, we didn't let them play but it was through no lack of their effort.
Also, it's the best memory I have of us ever out "game planning" someone, we didn't play our normal game for me, but we adjusted to another plan that we knew would win us the game.
Excellent stuff

It's amusing isn't it, they used to be a reasonably knowledgeable bunch but now they're just coming across as another graceless bunch of "we lost and it must be someone else's fault"
