After last weeks hammering at relegated Bradford Bulls, next up are the other ex-Super League club, London Broncos. This time a 'home' fixture at Castle Park - not forgetting this one is a 3.00pm kick off.

The Dons had a real go in the away fixture in February and having got behind early, eventually fought back to lose just 26-22.

London played in midweek winning 28-22 at Batley having trailed 18-6 at Half Time.

The referee appointed is well known to the Dons ... Dave Merrick.

I'm up in gods county for this one,may be a bit bleary eyed as I'm doing a rail tour to skegvegas the day before which will involve a lot of beer!!

I've been saying to my dad and I'm still going to say it that we're going to win this one!! I don't know why but I have a feeling!

Maybe their game midweek could be a leveler,we can hope, I'm going to be an optimistic numpty again and say we are going to get our first win.

Have to go with that, it has to end one day does ABS Part2.

London being full time can't use the two games in a week stuff. Its not as if they had to be up this morning at 6ish to go onto the building site etc. They will drive to training in their sponsored cars, have sponsored light training session,sponsored lunch and then a sponsored kip.

(just kidding) Oh to be a full time sports person thingy

Was watching Cas beat Leeds tonight.
We had Luke Gale AND Kyle Briggs with him when we were really good.

How the hell did we then think that we could compete with AN Other and the terribly slow Niklas?
Wilko is not included in AN Other.

Seriously what were we thinking?






We went backwards!

Hope to see Mennell & Wilkinson playing together in the halves .

Has Dave Scott been dropped ?

Interesting to see we've got the use of Curtis Naughton and Josh Bowden from Hull, as well as Snitch and Leaf returning.

The bookies are generally offering either 16 points (Betfred, Hills, Ladbrokes, Stan James) or 18 points start (Bet365, BetVictor, Coral, Paddy Power).

Skybet are a stand-out +22 points at 10/11. However, for those punters who have had a winner or two with them you'll be lucky to get much more than a tenner on.



They are also best priced (8/1) about a Dons win.

I wasn't far wrong, offered a maximum bet of £11.00 ... call themselves bookmakers ... trades description act springs to mind!

Very disappointing.
I thought we could beat London.
Unfortunately, the players didn't.

More like Sky's a limit

I've had the last laugh as it's cost [uthem[/u money.

At half-time, I thought we could win the game if we applied ourselves well in the second half.

We were left to regret the missed chances we had in the first half when we were near their line but didn't score. London were able to break our line much more easily when they had their chances.

As always, things don't seem to go your way when you're down and the lucky breaks didn't go our way. The way things are at the moment, we need other teams to be below par, and we've got to be near to our best to win, and it's not happening.

We're not getting enough fast play the balls to trouble the opposition when attacking which is contributing to everything looking laboured and slow. Until we can make some headway in that department, I can't see us scoring many points.

In defence, when we get under pressure we look disorganised. Some of the holes we leave makes life easy for the other side.

I really felt sorry for Shaun Leaf. He has so much bad luck with injuries. I hope he's okay.

It was good to see Lee Waterman at the game. Pity he was in the stands and not on the pitch!

Plenty of effort today but not much of a cutting edge !

Yes plenty of effort, not enough creativity, as has been the case all season, and a few errors that were punished. Agree that defensively we looked disorganised, as was shown with a few words said amongst the players . Still plenty of points to be had, but we look incapable of getting enough.

The second half sadly was poor.

The last 3 London tries all came from our errors and as has been stated, defensively we looked very disorganised.

No lack of effort for the most part but seriously lacking in confidence and belief.

I also thought you were on top in the first half. We were trying too hard and could not complete sets.
Second half we had a few bits of luck and took advantage of defensive errors to run away with the game.
You looked better than the last time I saw you against Fev.
Good luck for the rest of the season. I am sure you will get a result or two from somewhere.
I know what it feels like, we were in your position last year.

I walked out with ten minutes left
First of the season.
Trying to catch a bus actually, it passed me ten yards from the stop.
Bad me.
Glad I walked out though ... losers!
Looking forward to a year off!
Might watch Toll Bar instead.
I ain't watching the Dons next year come what may, but good luck to all of you that do!

Sadly, I'm sure you won't be alone.

hi peeps, I went to the game on sunday (as l always do, as a loyal fan) To say Im not suprised we got beat is an understatement even though to be fair we were as good as them in the first half. This time last year we would have come out in the second half and kicked on and probably beat them, why we cant do it this year is the million dollar question. I full understand why SO. and a few more fans are threatening to stay away, there have been times this year when l have felt just the same, But as a fan I will do my best to get through this and regardless of how bad the results are we have to get behind the team and the coaches. One possitive from Sunday was that it was obvious to me that some players were putting their bodies and soul into the game. So while ever we have a team turning out l will turn up to cheer them on. Hope shaun leafe is fit for the next game does anyone know how he is, ?. Can someone tell me how the play off works do all the teams start on zero points or do your points carry on nobody seems to know. Anyway another poor result and a lot to moan about but hey ho, onwards and upwards, COYDs hope fev play crap Friday and we play better (Ive got my fingers crossed)

points carried over in our 8.

Only the middle eight start on zero points ... and, when you think about it for a moment, they have to.
Otherwise such as Wakey would have no chance .....

Leafy has said on Facebook he cant play on Friday due to the concussion rule that the RFL impose.

I know some people may stay away next season but the hardcore wont I don't think. You only had to listen to the support we gave to the lads on Sunday to see that. There are teams at the top end of the league who don't get cheered on like the dons do and weve lost 18 on the turn.
