Location: Somewhere in Bonny Donny (Twinned with Krakatoa in 1883).
Them or others......Ben Cockayne came from 'nowhere' to become a great player in a matter of matches at the Dons and then on to HKR inside a year.
There are countless better players out there in the amateur ranks than what are currently playing for the Dons.
The problem is their cicumstances dictate that in practical terms they are can't come and play for Doncaster.
However if someone suggests that there are not better lads out there available, compared with some of the ones in our side that will NOT make it however much some people want to wish it to come true, I find that astonishing.
Do we have to stick with some of this sorry bunch..really?
There are gems among them like Aaron Henry....but half this team need to be told they are not good enough.....and replacements found.....quick.
I'd sooner watch young enthusiastic kids than blokes who clearly are not fit and are overweight.

BUT I have changed my mind and will be at the Sunday game....if only to supply some income to the club....and a ghoulish fascination as to how bad this outfit can really become.
I do however expect us to come out fighting and to really have a go at South Wales.....who let's face it are there for the taking in normal circumstances...and if we get some early joy will lift our confidence and help us kick on to victory.
I am not sure that we have enough skill or fitness to do that though..

Scott MacDonald impressed me during the time he was at the Club (now back at Oulton as is Matty Handforth) and from the list above there are certainly some who could freshen up the current squad.

I find it difficult to believe they are no amateur Doncaster Rugby League players able to step up to the cause who are or have been playing at a reasonably high level, but we can give a union player a chance, who I hope can do us a job, providing he s not already left.






Not thyself but the cause

The problem with amateur rugby in Doncaster is you dont have enough quality teams so you dont produce the players. Which local players would be good enough now or in the future? players from last year are playing at Oulton who are bottom of their league this is not a good enough standard for proffesional rugby.
A first step would be to get a team in the national conferce league and build from that.

China played about 6 weeks ago, i did not go last week due the Dons playing but am sure he has not played since that game weeks ago.
