| I thought I would snatch back the initiative before Jemmo jinxes the Dons again.
So we will win in Wrexham.
Forget the Worky game.
It's a banana skin is this one.
What do we need to do to regroup and get our confidence back?

| Just the determination to put it right by the players and coaching staff. They know they let themselves down, as i said on the workington thread after the game, we will see what tha Dons are made of now. I'm expecting a very different performance, if we don't get one, then i will start to worry. At the moment im hoping it was a blip

It might be a sore point after two disasters for the coach crew in Cumbria, but it's not quite as far is it?

| Sunday will show the strength of the team, hoping the boys will channel their frustration from yesterday and put in a better performance.
Yes, will be there,

I think North Wales may well face a bit of a backlash, lets hope so anyway. Have a good holiday. ps. unless i dreamt it i think i read somewhere on line that cowling would be out for around 12 weeks

| I think we will put another 40 points on the board. There is no stigma attached to visiting Wrexham yet

| Quote ="Stand-Offish"So will Sanderson be full back?'" I was wondering who would fill in at full back, irs not a position where you can see an obvious replacement. Tom Hodson has played there before but didn't look too confident in that position, and with him playing well om the wing, linking with Lee Waterman, i wouldn't have thought theyd move him. You could well be right stand offish

| With China set to return, either he or Sando could play full back with the other operating on the wing.

| Sando has dropped into full back before on occasion, and I think he's slightly better under the high ball than the other guys.

| Match Preview
Doncaster Rugby League are back on the road again and make the journey to Wrexham to face North Wales Crusaders at their Racecourse Ground on Sunday 27th May - please note the earlier kick-off time of 2.30pm.
The Dons will be looking to get back to winning after they suffered a heavy defeat against fellow promotion chasers Workington Town last Sunday.
They looked good value for money and raced into an 18 nil lead before former Great Britain forward Jamie Thackray came off the bench and changed the game in favour of the hosts.
The second placed Dons will be without dual registration Danny Cowling, who suffered a compound fracture of an index finger last weekend, for around 6 weeks. Both Dean Colton (knee) and Craig Lawton (illness) are available for selection whilst full back Mick Butterfield will undergo a late fitness test.
Dons' head coach Tony Miller said: "We've got quite a long break after this fixture and it will give some of the lads some much needed rest time and we'll hopefully have a few players back from injury by the time we play Gateshead at the Keepmoat (Sunday 24th June).
"Last week was obviously disappointing and we've draw a line under that performance. It's important we bounce back against North Wales and we've got the personnel and the character to do just that.
"We're expecting a tough game against the Crusaders and they've picked up some decent wins especially the recent one at Oldham.
"Nobody was more disappointed than the players last week and they'll be doing their best to bring the points home."
North Wales Crusaders have signed the experienced back row forward Andy Gorski on loan from Championship club Swinton Lions and is expected to go straight into their squad for this weekend.
Danny Hulme faces a late fitness test on a calf injury before their head coach Clive Griffiths can finalise his squad. However, Jono Smith still remains up to three weeks away from a return to first team action.
Griffiths said: "Having last week off gave us a bit of a break, but I'm not keen on missing too many games.
"However, we did some extra training and we've been able to stretch things out over a full week, which was good for us.
"Doncaster are going to be hurt by their loss at Workington. They'll be favourites on Sunday, obviously - but Oldham were favourites against us too.
"I just hope we can continue to show that we'll be competitive week in, week out. That was the aim coming into this division, and we're gradually getting there."
He added: "Doncaster are a very potent side. Paul Cooke is a great talisman, and with Craig Fawcett and Kyle Kesik they've got a good triangle in the middle."
