In fairness, the quality of rugby served up by one of teams isn't going to attract many more.

On current form, I expect us to finish 6th or 7th.

We were very poor both in attack and defence.
No attacking structure or organisation from the half backs and no aggression from the forwards.

Time to face facts ,we are a mid-table side who were dominated by a physical Oldham pack ,that showed more desire to carry the ball and muscle up in defence.

Oldham played basic down the middle rugby which the Dons failed to match .

With Keighley , Workington and Bradford on the horizon, and after the performance served up yesterday, I envisage our rapid descent down the Championship 1 table to another season of mid table mediocrity.

Drastic times call for drastic measures and Club Doncaster need to conduct a full review of how another season of hope has turned in to another year of hopeless.
If the Dons are ever going to see the Championship never mind Super league then changes are needed.

How many more false promises can be served up by CH, only for the rug to be pulled out from under us mid season with p1ss poor displays from a so called promotion challenging squad of players.

The only thing I can see us challenging for is to see if we can finish just ahead of Coventry or Hemel.

One thing not mentioned, or maybe more accurately not commented on, was Owen getting sinbinned for dissent.

That has no place in a team, it happened at a pivotal time, and he has history of moaning at the ref.

Another thing not sorted then!

I did comment on it saying he was becoming a liability.
no place for sinbinning for dissent more so from experienced players.

Sorry if I did not read it ... but you are absolutely right.

Opposition players are gonna wind you up verbally and physically abuse you in the hope you will crack.

Team players should curb their temper and not fall into the trap.
