After a break for the Challenge Cup Final, the next two games will decide where the Dons finish the regular season. My forecast would be fifth, though to ensure that I feel that this needs to be a home win.



Tom Halliday is available for selection although doubts remain over Matty Beharrell (unavailable at Oldham) and Rangi Chase (injured at Oldham).



Last Season: Doncaster 29 Keighley 20 (Sunday 10 June 201icon_cool.gif.

Dons Tries: Jack Sanderson, Charlie Martin, Sam Doherty, Keiran Cross.

Dons Conversions: Jordie Hedges 4.

Dons Penalties: Jordie Hedges, Jordan Howden.

Dons Field Goal: Jordan Howden.

If Hunslet beat Workington this weekend (at Hunslet), we can't catch Hunslet. If we beat Keighley, Workington can't catch us if they lose to Hunslet.



So, do we want to twist or stick?



Do we want to risk our 5th place spot by hoping Worky win at Hunslet giving us a chance of catching Hunslet, or do we want to stick and hope Hunslet win that game so Worky can't catch us?



Whichever way we look at it, we certainly need two points against Keighley!



In the play-offs, 5th is at home to 6th. The loser is eliminated.



Team 4 is away at Team 3. The losers gets a second chance at home to the winner of 5 v 6.

Squad for Sunday:



Matty Beharrell, Watson Boas (Loan), Connor Bower, Ryan Boyle, Rangi Chase, Sam Doherty, Brandon Douglas, Brad Foster, Tom Halliday, Jordie Hedges, Evan Hodgson (Loan), Jordan Howden, Kyle Kesik, Frankie Mariano, Levy Nzoungou (D/R), Connor Scott, Russ Spiers, Jason Tali, Brandan Wilkinson.



Jordie's in the squad but won't be playing. That just leaves one other to miss out.

Looks like Wilkinson will be playing. On that basis I'd have to say Hodgson SHOULD be the man to miss out.

So



Howden

Doherty

Tali

Bower

Halliday

Chase

Beharrell

Boyle

Kesik

Spiers

Mariano

Foster

Nzongou



Boas

Wilkinson

Scott

Douglas



Good pack?

Yes Rob,..Those four coming off the bench after 20 mins could really put the cat amongst the flying rats...Well worth the entrance fee.

Just three more possible games to go for me, but probably two.

Today vs Keighley, at home to Worky in the playoffs and the final away, should we get there.

Then I will not attend next year, if we are stuck in this division pretending we are any good again, any games were we aren't top of the league.

So that is probably ... none.

Call myself a supporter?

Yes, for 33 years. But a fed up one.

Well good riddance then, the Cleggbook will be a better place!



I don't need a 5 year plan ... I have a 1 year plan.

COYD

That's more than me. I'm going today one last time to remind myself why I'm not bothering going forward and that's it. This is a decision I've been coming to for a long while, I'm guessing I'm not unlike yourself in that regard.

Sad times mate ...

Too many false dawns.

Dons -16 10/11 with Bet365.

-12 10/11 with Skybet.

Im with you all the way S/O struggling to build up any enthusiasm for today,,, we may have 1 more game at home after today,, may not,,,not bothered either way.. Its good to see the "SUPER DOOPER D/R DEAL" has come good in the end....we have ONE d/r player in the squad and thats a player Hull have dumped ??? yes you certainly pulled of a brilliant deal there Mr Hall we the fans are falling at your feet . next year I will be finding something else to do on Sundays,,,UNLESS Mr Hall pulls of a fantastic deal that will attract the fans back in their thousands...weekends away it is then. Good luck to all our players today it may be the last time we see most of them at home wish them all the best for the future where ever they are playing.
