| What is worrying also is some of the players are on 2 year contracts . Thought it was a good idea at the time , mind you I admit I thought GT would be a good coach, with his experience, at this level .
We will do well to make the top 8 at this rate .

| No more for me until there is a proper change of direction at the Club and fresh people running it. Carl Hall is simply taking this club no where.

| London looked very sluggish in the first half. Thank goodness we got that try on the half-time hooter to give us the lead we had or else things could have been even more embarrassing.
I think it was Feka's influence that made the difference in the first half as he was the one who made the line breaks and gave us some go forward. It was noticeable that he didn't come back on in the second half.
We were very poor with our execution going forwards. Our discipline was very poor and the back-chatting that led to us being moved back another 10 metres could have lost us the game near the end. Luckily the London kicker wasn't very good and missed.
This results probably confirms what we already suspected - we're about at the same level as London Skolars. Are London likely to feature in the promotion play-offs? No. Are we? No.
We have no spine to the team even though GT said he thought that was critical at the start of the season. I'm afraid the sad fact is that most of the players aren't of the required calibre to get us out of this league. If they're being well-coached it's not coming through on the pitch. Our Keith Senior impersonator certainly didn't seem to be bringing any pearls of wisdom out with him. We got worse after each of his pep talks behind the sticks.
I gives me no pleasure at all to say that I fear our season is going to get worse, not better from here on in.

| Another request to the club: can we go back to announcing substitutions please?
I wanted to see how Jordie Hedges performed today (not been convinced by him yet) and didn't even realise that he'd come off the bench.
Any opinions from out there?

In my opinion the weather and surroundings here in Skiathos are marvellous.
Vote with your feet ...I did and never buy a season ticket.
Can't wait for the three Cumbrian encounters.

| Difficult to see how CH can justify keeping this coach. Today was the day the final nail was knocked in the coffin.
The players have proved they are decent going by the second half performance at Headingley so a big problem has to be motivation. If there is unrest in the dressing room, and i'm sure there is then this will transmit on to the pitch.
Change is needed asap to enable the club to have some chance of the play-offs.
Do the right thing Carl and make the changes.
I'm sure someone like Lee Greenwood would appreciate a new challenge...

My guess is barry chuckle! From beating leeds in the 2nd half to getting beat 6-24 in the 2nd half by the skolars that's just unreal, the club reeks from top to bottom.

| Coaching staff have input but the final decision is made by GT according to CH ITD.
Today he left Zac Braham out, who had a good game v Leeds , yet he played another prop, a big lad ,who cannot break a tackle .

| Did anyone speak to Carl after the game, I was to upset to approach him, I would really like to know his thoughts on the situation. If he doesn't act soon we won't have a club.

I've sent a question to baz for in the dugout which is pretty probing and very to the point so keep your eyes peeled for Thursday. (no doubt the question will be binned and the usual selected questions will be asked).

This is mentioned on the Facebook page by someone that spoke to one of the players. The extra 10 wasn't for backchat. It was because of refs incompetence. He took them an extra 10 from the offence because he said that's what happens with offside. Even though the original penalty wasn't for offside.

| So we had an incompetent referee yesterday, and we've still got an incompetent coach today, I don't want to make this personal, I believe Gary is a decent man, however surely it's time for a change, in 12 months we've gone backwards even though we have spent more than before according to Carl.

| great game to watch though as a casual rl fan . but the dons should have put London away , they looked shattered at times and would expect Doncaster to be fitter going into the latter stages - is it coaching or fitness that's costing Donny ? maybe both
