We will need to show better discipline tonight than was the case last Thursday, that is for sure.

Hope Sanderson is back tonight , give Dennis a rest tonight, Spiers & Edwards also should return. BUT I have never been a sports coach.

Tonight's Eagles game at Featherstone as been featured on every sports bulletin on Radio Sheffield today, there as been no mention of the Dons v York game.

Dunno but i hav the same feeling lol

Having the bottom club do the double over you while previously having great wins at Fev, Batley and a draw at Fax, would sort of sum Donny up.
But surely we can sort this one out?
We are inferior without Kay though.
But a win surely?

Dons generally asked to concede 12 points on the Handicap Betting. Skybet continue to embarrass themselves by dangling a carrot of only -10 but then have a ceiling of a £27.50 stake

There will be a terrible storm and one set of posts will fall down.
Someone will ask the crowd if anyone has an hacksaw.
HT 4-4
Dons go on to win narrowly.

Dreadful start.

0-10 after 10 mins



Make that 14.

6-14 after 24 - Butts
12-14
12-20


18-20

- Dennis
24-20

- Carbutt

presumably all converted by Dave Scott?

30-20 . York presumably running out of steam - Cookey

34-20 Game over. Phew.

38-20 FT

Rocket up backsides needed, that could easily have gone pear-shaped.
BUT ... the lads dug in and did the business.
Was enjoying it at the end.
Felt sorry for York a bit and their fans, they put up a great fight.

Well, 0-14 , not in the game , York playing well. Spear tackle on Kes seemed to change the game .
In the end we ran out clear winners , Lee Waterman had his best game for a while when he came on.

As did Tuffour I'm normally not his biggest fan due to defensive frailties and don't think he consistently offers enough with his attack, but today I thought he had the best game I've seen him play all season and IMO unlucky not to get M.O.T.M. Still agree with it going to Scott though, thought it was a 50-50 call between the two of them.

They put him right onto his broken nose and the tissues were passed to mop up the claret.
Kes is a proper man.

Yes Dennis did play better & Kes was inspirational when he came on & was clearly targeted by York & no10 in the spear tackle incident , seemed to bring us to life .

In the end it was a good result but it is a pity it took a spear tackle on poor Keswick's broken nose to get us going. But once we are going we are difficult to stop. Another top performance by Scott with Danny Cowling right up there too.

Poor start, but credit York for that, picked up the pace and started to look half decent, ended up a lot more comfortable than looked likely .

Agree York deserve some credit for their early efforts built on the foundation of the kicking game of Simon Brown. Jack Lee also looked useful.

did they announce attendance don't recall hearing it.

Attendance 580 , average this season dips just below 700.

Thanks , disappointing

a very good response to a very poor first 20 minutes, but after that we played some very good rugby and scored some very good tries. Waterman was just a different player and the pleasing factor for me was his improved discipline. Dennis was sensational tonight in all aspects of the game and that last run where he burst through 2 or 3 tacklers and run 50 metres to create a try from the next play was awesome. Play-offs unbelievable achievement considering where we were 9 games ago, Credit to all at the club and will be there on Sunday for Tony's last home League game

Video of the game will be online this evening once I get in from work.

Well done Donny.

Best kicking game Ive seen this season from their 6. Thought he had a good game.
York downfall was deciding to try and knock Kes' head off as soon as he came on the pitch.He was clearly targetted and that revved us up and got us going.That was it after that.

Also I dont know what caused the red card incident. Did something go off earlier to cause him to start wading in like that.

Top marks as well to the winger who did what looked like a scorpion kick to keep the ball in from the penalty!!

We have to be on the game straight from the kick off against Eagles as I dont think we would get back from 14 points down against them.

Cant wait for Sunday.
