Danny Bravo in the centres with Sam Smeaton on the wing.
From the squad sheet on Twitter York is on the bench.
Douglas and Wilkinson starting at prop.

We seem to have stacked our right defence there. All of our backrowers are capable as centres (I'd have gone for Johnson under this system). Very strong pack. To me this is a statement of intent and I think it could be effective.

Got the laptop connected to the tv today too - happy Sunday

I think the changes are tactical rather than forced. Looking forward to it too.
Streaming it through my old PS4. PS5 doesn't allow streaming through a browser for some reason. Anyway watching it on big screen regardless

Is Ricketts injured ?

Ollies dad suggested Ollie hadnt been selected . The post was quickly removed ! Not sure about Sam could be something to do with wife and/or baby.
If we are not told , you are bound to speculate .

Richard has done great with the squad after Keighley game but cannot agree with the secrecy aspect !

Anyway good luck to the 17 chosen !

Missing Ollie IMO no disrespect to Tom but he brings the ball out of defence better.

HT Barrow 12 Dons 0

Pretty even for half an hour before Barrow scored twice in a five minute spell.

Dallimore red carded just before HT for a hit on Tali gives us hope of a second half recovery.

Yeah I did, I’d known all week he wouldn’t be in team due to Covid contact tracing, but waited until the team was announced but didn’t realise RH had left him in the team, which was probably to make barrow think he’d be going with the same line up, so I removed the post once I realised.

Barrow are much the better side, we have to face up to that.
