G.T. must have a "dream 17" in mind and I would guess it would include the following...
Front row..Aizue,Kesick,Castle.
Halves..Hedges,Howden.
Centre..Tali,Welham.
Full bck..Carr.
We have not been anywhere near this lineup yet,and I wonder if we ever will.
Yes,Hedges hasn't shown up too well,but for a half to have any influence the team has got to keep the ball for a reasonable length of time.
Regarding the adverse comments on Joe PO'D the coach will go up 100% in my estimation if he can keep him on the pitch for the full 80
It is players with passion,aggression and go forward that we need
I would make him captain,a bit like England Union did with Dylan Hartley.
In the context of what has been promised by Club Doncaster and those representing the Dons, yesterday has to go down as one of the darkest days in the Club's history for many a year.
Losing to London Skolars, who, let's not look for excuses were the better team, would have been bad enough away, but this is Fortress Keepmoat we are talking about (not my phrase, the Coaches).
And talking of excuses, If injuries are to be referenced again, I have an observation and a question ...
London lost their full back and stand off in the first half, the latter being their player-coach.
Why do we have a squad where constantly any number of them are reported as injured. Is this really bad luck when we have been promised the fittest squad in the division?
367 mainly unlucky souls saw the Dons create another record at the Sheepgoat Stadium.
It was the first time London Dollars had beaten the Dons away from home.
I say beaten, I really mean humiliated, since they also did without a fullback and stand-off just like us to even any disadvantage up.
They,unlike us, didn't know this in advance but still managed to rejig and still embarrass us
If someone can explain just how we intend to win games when we can't even get out of our own twenty for most of recent games I would be grateful.
This means little forward power, little creativity and clueless formations with a shoite kicking game is what you come to watch when you walk through the turnstiles as a Dons supporter lately.
How is this any different to last season?????
It really is dreadful to watch.
Next up is the battle of two beleaguered clubs Dons vs a club they have already beaten, they may win since NWC are as fed up as our players seem to be.
I shan't be watching, it hardly qualifies as entertainment and although I only have to pay £11 it's just not worth watching a group of individuals toss it off and feel sorry for themselves.
Hardly their fault anyway, they aren't up to it.
I couldn't help but watch the London Skolars stand in fullback and admire his commitment and professionalism.
Barking out instructions and organising his side's defence.
A real pro.
We had Aizue another real pro and that was it.
I watched those two for the second half. The rest of our players apart from a few were bit players, they could have been a bunch of lads larking about on the beach for all the good they were actually doing in attack.
I see a club in crisis with absolutely no idea or money to turn it around.
Sad times for the Dons.
Only season ticket holders will bother to watch this kind of fare.
It's boring.
A lot of what both Gary & S-O say has a lot of merit . Another player to escape criticism should be Louis Sherrif , who when he moved to FB put in a good stint .
Leave him there please , I think Reece Dean is best of another poor lot from Hull exc Feka. Play Dean at 6 or 7 , as Hedges looked in a bad way .
I think GT like PC has been dealt a bad hand by Club Doncaster .
