An opportunity to return to winning ways with the visit of the Crusaders who have just one league win this season, that coming against West Wales Raiders 70-8 on Good Friday.



There has been a suggestion that Matty Beharrell may be available for the game and new signing Watson Boas is another half back option.



Last Season: Doncaster 28 North Wales Crusaders 20 (Sunday 8 April 201icon_cool.gif.



Dons Tries: Brandon Wilkinson, Connor Scott, Jason Tali, Richard Owen, Brad England.

Dons Conversions: Hakim Miloudi 4.

An opportunity to return to winning ways from whinging ways for me.

Needs a solid performance against a decent outfit.

Squad



Matty Beharrell, Watson Boas (Loan), Ryan Boyle, Kieran Buchanan (D/R), Matty Chrimes, Jordan Cox, Brandon Douglas, Brad Foster, Jordie Hedges, Jordan Howden, Kyle Kesik, Callum Ogden, Richard Owen, Connor Scott, Russ Spiers, Jason Tali, Jordan Thompson (D/R), Brandan Wilkinson, Menzie Yere (Loan).



Jordan thompson is a second row/loose forward

Good to see Brandan named in there. Welcome back to the squad young man.

Yes good to have him back, been a long injury for him.

Trying to put together a 17, my best guess sees Ogden and Wilkinson not making it.

Where does Howden fit in ?



I think it could be Howden & Foster .

I agree.



Howden is the obvious one to drop for me

Of the back row options Cox gives us an offload game Jordie has been playing well, Thompson should be a class above at this level if he is who I am thinking of, and we will want Wilkinson on the bench to bring him back so foster makes the most sense to drop.



Ogden to maintain his place to give Kes a breather unless Hedges is intended for this in which case Foster stays.

I assumed Beryl and Howden at 6/7. We don’t have many options for backs so would be brave to not have one on the bench whether it’s Howden or Boas.



I’d like to see Wilkinson get some game time, thought he might have had a run out with Hull reserves first



Either way, the fact we all have different ideas shows we have options, which has to be a good thing

My feeling is we've named 3 halves in case Matty isn't fit. May be wrong. Rich Owen is nailed on for wing if available. If not Tali to wing maybe? Forwards. It's a straight choice between Foster and Wilkinson depending on fitness. Wed agree strong squad?

In summary. Either Howden or Ogden for 1 spot. Foster or Wilkinson for other.
