And incidentally, how can Hunslet assemble such a decent side on such a crap crowd?


I don't know the answer but it is a fair question.

5 players from Featherstones 2009 squad, 3 PNG Internationals, the March Brothers etc etc, somebody is paying for that???

Assuming that there were 25 - 30 Dons supporters there, that still makes Hunslet's home support at least twice ours.

Don't think no 5 should be on the team sheet on Monday.Poor in attack poor in defence and missed the chance to gather there kick through that gifted a try.As SO said the other day "tackle the man with the ball"
That said one or two others didn't perform today.
Not one grubber kick on last tackle just an easy lob through to there defence.Was this player choice or coaches instruction?

We desparately need Edwards back as Brown aint no stand off.

What's the point of having a forum if you can't be honest and say what you really think?

Yes.
In summing up a good headline might be.....
'Hunslet have got the March brothers...and Doncaster have got the Marx brothers'.

Happy days.....roll on Sunday.

Yet again our weaknesses outwide were exploited, neither Collins or King are upto this standard, hopefully Henry and Osbourne are available for selection on Monday.

But above all, when i come away from a game questioning our players passion and pride in wearing a Dons shirt, i wonder whats wrong.
Is it too much to asking for some consistancy? the hunger and desire shown against York was not there today. Why?

I wasnt expecting a win today, but i did expect us to compete, but sadly we didnt!!!!

MOM for dons - Craig Lawton great work rate

Yes....I thought Craig worked his butt of....well certainly in the first half....I didn't watch the second half.
I said so to Wanderer.....he wasn't so impressed.
But I thought Craig tackled like a demon.

Hunslet must have been laughing though, particularly Marchy.....he could have chipped quite happily to Price all day long knowing there was virtually nobody at home.

I thought we had bad luck for their first try with all the tip-tapping that fell perfectly for March and the one that bounced badly under the sticks for Collins and perfectly for Kain.
But having said that...you make your own luck and Hunslet did just that.

Thought both these wingers had decent games against York in attack, but as already been said the defence outside has been poor for sometime now, Don't think its just down to the wingers though IMO Gomersall carrys the ball up strong but his defence is dire at times and teams have exposed his flank in almost every game so far.
