Correct Carl had held the record 5 tries for the previous 13 years.

| Previous Dons players tries in a match record holders
4 Venon Grace Dons v Rochdale 4th October 1952
4 Brian Tasker Leeds v Dons 26th October 1963
4 John Buckton Dons v Rochdale 30th August 1981
5 Carl Hall Dons v Mysons 31st October 1993
Can anyone name the Dons player who holds the record for kicking the longest drop goal at Tattersfield & which team did he kick the goal against?

No Richard its wasn't David "Marra" Towle.
I give you a clue if you find the old the vehicle registration letters that cars registered in Huddersfield use to carry before they changed the system you will find the players initials.

Geoff do you still have all the club records. i wouldnt mind doing a similar site to the breathing fire special we had to mark the 50 year anniversary. unfortunatley i havent got any of that data saved.
But the club definately needs a website charting all the results of every season, one i wouldnt mind working on.
Do you still have a lot of the info you provided me with last time? feel free to email me robbyboy74@gmail.com

web.archive.org/web/200302051608 ... lcome.html now this is how i fondly remember breathing fire looking. love the line we had FIFTY YEARS OF DONCASTER RUGBY LEAGUE 1951-2002 FIVE YEARS OF BREATHING FIRE 1997-2002 . 1997 when i started breathing fire and which was the clubs first ever official website. only seems like two minutes ago does that. shame the video lounge link doesnt work anymore.
More good news - this link contains all the league tables web.archive.org/web/200304050015 ... e1951.html
looks like we might be able to retrieve some lost information from the bf days. Does anybody remember what the url was we used for the special 50 year history website we did. if we remember the url we may be able to pull out the information

Rob I have never had any club records all the information I have about the Dons is from my memory of supporting the Dons home & away since 1960 i also get a lot of information from my massive collection of Dons home & away programmes starting with the clubs very first programme for the match against Wakefield Trinity at the York Rd Greyhound stadium.

I'm currently trying to get all of the League tables collated together at the moment, but am missing a fair few from the last 10 years, and 1986. If my maths is right, we're not far away from our 500th League win.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc ... zREZk5QQWc
Also updated a few of the above stats bits and pieces.
Also, if I've got everything correct, Lee Waterman equalled Tony Zelei's record of points in a game on Saturday, as well as the Tries in a game record.
Simon Irvings record of goals in a game is 13, as he kicked 13 out of 14 against York in the 82-4 win on May 6th 2001. [url=http://web.archive.org/web/20010713095559/http://www.doncasterdragons.org.uk/Reports/060501.htmlRob Claytons Match Report[/url

Record Attendance at Keepmoat (for a Dons Game)
