Our forms not too shabby plus we're at home. If the 17 is what I hope it is then I'd back us without a doubt.

So would I Rob, my point about Hunslet was made with the hard nosed bookies hat on. They did not see the effort last week when we where 3 mins from beating Keighley, who now find themselves as the favourites for the second promotion spot in some quarters.

Workington didn't have anything to play for last week against Hunslet after Barrow had won the league the day before. The Hunslet win probably flatters them, as does the Keighley win against us. The bookies seem to have overlooked this evidence in their calculations.

Bookies odds are not set on form alone, they also take in to account betting trends, if more money is put on hunslet then the odds will be shorter

Looking forward to the game this afty and after brining Ollies granddad last week there’s a big family turnout for today’s game ans we will all be cheering on donny.
I went to the hunslet away game ans didn’t see anything from them that made me think they were any better than Doncaster, missed the home game but that was in the middle of a bit of a Covid crisis in the camp so won’t read much in to that result.
Just need to have good line speed and shut down brambini ans that should prevent hunslet from too many opportunities.
Then (but I say this every week) let the backs get the ball in the oppositions half and the scores will come
Seen you all around 4

Well I'll put my money where my mouth is and 10 quid for a Dons win at 6/5. If we win I'll put the winnings on a win at North Wales.

Happy with that side. Very strong. Good to see Ben starting at 9. Gone for mobility on the bench but all 3 can take it down middle if needed. Strong side as I say.

Great result. Hope Zac's ok. Didn't look good. Just want to compliment a huge effort from Brandon Douglas and a very composed performance from Ben Cockayne. Great team effort though. Really proud.

If you keep putting your money on, Rob, we'll be okay... that's the secret!

Brandon Douglas had more bandage than leg today! I wonder what he'll look like next week?!

I agree Ben Cockayne made some good contributions too. He wasn't afraid to take the ball to the line with some late off-loads, risking getting whacked.

I hope Zac and Ollie are both okay.

Good to see Matty back and in good form.

All we need to do now is to win at N Wales, Keighley and Workington (not necessarily in that order) and the job's sorted.

Did anyone hear the attendance?

Saw Ollie at end. He seems ok. Don't know about Zac but we've potentially got Boyle, Peltier and Mudoti available so who knows.

I actually think we can do it Mike. Today was possibly the most difficult but we came through with flying colours. We can do this.

Great team performance today in which Ben Cockayne was outstanding . The coach had to shuffle his players due to injuries .
