Say what you mean and mean what you say because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.: |

What was our team last year when we won. I seem to remember Cookie didn't play. Just wondered how many of that side could be available this time?

12 of the 17 are available, but I think it may be a bit too early for Rich Wilkinsons return. |

You have me worried now  You are not my Doctor are you  ?Or you know something other folk don't, it's a pity this game was not a couple of weeks later ,the Donny Lincoln week- end ,I would have stayed over.
Anyway with bit of decent weather hopefully and a decent pitch I think it will be a good game ,I forecast a close game last season and look what happened,I'm going for a score of Donny 16 V Leigh 30 ,and maybe a decent crowd. |

As it stands, Wilkinson and Wilson are the only 2 of those 12 not to play for the club this season in the league. Wilkinson has had an operation, and I believe Wilson picked up a knock in preseason.

I would like to see Walton have a run out, thought he played well in the pre-season.

Crooks. Cowling
Hodson. Doherty
Miller. Cookie
Starling. Dunn
Wilson if unfit Clarke
Wilkinson and Spaven not so easy to replace without DR but should be able to give a good account albeit against an improved Leigh side. |

Write for a few rugby league websites, mainly about the Kingstone Press Championship.
Usually found in Sunderland, sometimes in Sheffield.

Few bits and pieces.
Doncaster and Leigh have met 48 times altogether, 2 in the John Player Trophy, 4 in the Challenge Cup, 41 times in the league, and 1 time in Playoffs. In that time, Doncaster have won 7 matches, with Leigh winning all the others.
The first meeting between the two teams took place on 12/2/1955, with Leigh winning 19-6 in the first round of the Challenge Cup. It wasn't until the 7th fixture between the two that the Dons won, with a 14-7 victory at Leigh on 21/9/1968. The double was completed when the Dons ran out 13-4 winners in the return fixture at Tattersfield on 8th March 1969, the 45th anniversary of which is this coming Sunday.
Since that time, the Dons have only won 5 fixtures against Leigh, with memorable occasions such as Johnny Woodcocks last minute winner in 2001, and last seasons victory being amongst the highlights for the Dons.
The biggest winning margins in the fixtures are 11 points for Doncaster (29-18 victory, 25/06/2000, Wayne Parker with 4 DG and Steve Booth with 1 DG) and 72 points for Leigh (3-75, 28/03/1976)

I'm trying to think back to which of those game would have been the first one I would have seen!
Maybe the 12-2 defeat on 30th March 1975.
