where's uncle tom cobley

Is James Clare available for us ?

with Lee Smith injured now cannot see Cowling being released for the Dewsbury game either.

At least they are going to field a weaker side against us............

A bit dissapointing seeing Goulding for them, and I think Cowlig will be a Waley player all season.

must admit at this point I don't see us getting any help from either Cas or Wakey

I don't really see it as a surprise or a problem. They are wakefield/ cas players and they want to assess them in their own team in a friendly, there was always a chance that they would return at any point during the season anyway. I do think we will see these players in a Dons shirt this season, not sure how many times that's all. As I've said before , it's great to have these youngsters here, but as with any dual reg player, the parent club will always come first. I would rather see it as a season long loan, not dual reg ,but we have what we have.

Clare is on a season long loan so I understand , we may have an agreement about pre season !

Must admit not a fan of Dual Reg.

I know that the snow is due to start melting, but will an attempt be made to clear the pitch?
The Rovers aren't playing, so will they be bothered?

That thought occurred to me as well, hopefully our scepticism is unfounded

Didn't the Rovers fans go and dig the snow off...We could ask them to come do it for us to

Yes they did.
I would suspect that they wouldn't give a toss about the Dons.
Perhaps someone from the Dons could let us know what is happening please.

They've just tweeted asking for help tomorrow 7am

i read on dons website that james clare is available and will play
for us as is paul cooke

That is correct , looking forward to the game. Can Goulding do 40 mins for them & 40 mins for the Dons, sounds like Dual Reg to me .

so much for Clare being available

Dons 4 Wakey 44
Crowd 810
Pointless.
James Clare?
Pointless.
Does he actually exist?

They were too fast too strong and had the benefit of one or two questionable decisions . on the positive side we never gave up and won't come up against a super league side every week. Im sure we'll learn from it. Bring on the real stuff.

James Clare ?
Cannot see too many positives to come out of today . Paul Cooke got some game time but we lost Leaf & Edwards with injuries, we never gave up .

Wakefield got more out of todays game for sure !

We're the flood lights broken today or have Rovers not paid the electric bil?!

Thought we were pretty poor today. I expected that we'd at least be competitive.

The main one that annoyed me was the disallowed try...

Yea saw your picture on twitter rob, wasn't sure at the time but i am now

The officials today were [size=200SHOITE[/size,
I think this sport is dying thanks to such as them.
