West Wales V Dons Sat 23rd April 3pm : Thu Apr 21, 2022 12:51 pm  

Ben Johnson received a 5 match suspension this week for his outburst to the touch judge at the Swinton home game. Cover I imagine via either of Ben Cockayne or Ben Howe. I see Kobe Poching, son of the legendary Willie ( coach at Wakefield) is named in the Dons initial 21 man squad. I can't find his official attachment to the Dons as yet so I presume its been this week some time. Hope that this game gives a decent run out for some of the squad and a little more together time on field ahead of two important home games. Edit. I see the official site now have announced the signing of Kobe Poching, who it appears has been signed as cover for the stand off berth. https://www.doncasterrugbyleague.co.uk/ ... ns-on-loan

Probably a blow for you points difference wise as you could have probably ton-upped them again.

It looks like West Wales did all they could to get medical cover according to their Twitter statement.

This begs the question why the RFL haven't got a back-up plan to provide cover themselves in such circumstances.

Rochdale are the only other team to have played at W Wales in the league this season. They won by 40. Maybe the 48-0 scoreline is about right?

Look on the brightside - we've won a game and got no injuries! I feel sorry for the Donny fans who had arranged to go though.
