dont know wot anybody else thinks but for me hyde is looking like a go to player in his own right, easing the pressure off cooky ,and giving us left and right options,everytime we went left today i thought we would score, i also like the team spirit when a try is scored high fives and handshakes all round. bring on london and the easter eggs, coyd

good team performance and a deserved man of the match for tom hodson. when he set off from one wing to the other for that try saver i thought there was no way he was gona get there,great effort. tackling seems to be improving week on week. all in all good performance, great result

Very well deserved Man of the Match performance, outstanding effort that wing to wing tackle. Can't remember too many Dons players that would have been quicker either. I just love having two class half backs at the club and two up and coming and excellent young centres. Good stuff all round.

Got home and looked at the league table and we are FOURTH!
Top point scorers, second least conceded but because of the ridiculous bonus point system we are below two teams who have inferior points differences.
The RFL really couldn't run a fookin bath!

This is an athletes game, get fit or ship out Kesik! I wouldn't play him until he gets in shape, much as I like him. I didn't realise how much he had let himself go. What do you think, am I wrong? In fact there are two or three fatties in the Dons side and the side would be even better if they got in shape! Miller, ban the pies!

Not sure i agree. Yes hes carrying a bit of extra weight but there isnt many who arent on that team. I would say his fitness cant be doubted. Did you fail to notice the size of ely and how unfit he was?

Re: Dons v South Wales Sunday 1/4/12 : Mon Apr 02, 2012 5:21 am  

yes there are some carrying a bit of weight, yes they could trim a bit. No i wouldn't ship out kesik, he added a spark when he came on, the pace from dummy half picked up. As for Jack Ely,i was surprised to see him, weighman called that spot on, don't think we saw enough of him to make an argument either way, needs more game time for that.
