The player from Rossington was Mick Smith who on April 13th 1968 scored six tries for Featherstone against the Dons. One of the tries he scored for Fev in the Challenge Cup Final used to be shown in the opening introduction to BBC Grandstand.

Clive Sullivan was seen on the programme about Eddie Waring the three former Dons coaches appeared in the film that followed it The Game That Got Away. Scunny Trev as correctly identified Laurie Gant as one of the Dons former coaches, who were the other two who featured in this film?

I think I saw Clive Sullivan running about at the start of the program.

I know he played for us but I'm not sure if he coached

Was he player/coach ?

I don,t remember Clive playing for the Dons, his brother Brian certainly did.
