We are quickly into banana skin territory with this tie.
Surely we will win?

The fallout from a defeat would blot out the sun and lead to a mini ice-age!

How's it gonna pan out?

Expecting a win, and that is about it given the Coaches more thoughtful appraisal of last Sundays game. The performance that we are longing too see may have to wait a while.

Seeing that North Wales lost by 50-8 at Keighley last weekend, anything short of a win will be extremely disappointing.

It's one of those games where we've got plenty to lose and not much to gain. If we win well, it's what we'd expect; if we scrape home or lose, it'll be hard to see how we could be considered to be one of the best two teams in the league.

We need a comfortable win for the players' sake and for our sake too.

Still expecting a win but depends who plays the smarter rugby in what I'm sure will be dire conditions.
how much time do our lads spend together compared to a full time team so they can work on set plays using dummy runners or kicks to the wingers on the last tackle?
We may see exciting rugby when the weather gets better

The best chance for Donny to go up was last season. This season will be tougher imo with a top 6 place a real struggle with the likes of the Canadians, the Cumbrians, York, Hunslet, London & Keighley. Sounds like an exciting and interesting season ahead......

Noticed that Spiers scored a goal after Carr kicked a couple.
I hope Carr is not injured.
Anybody know?

That is a good first half score irrespective of the opposition.

Tom Carr has taken all the conversions according to Twitter.

Agree just need to build on that now in 2nd half and get ourselves some confidence

Gloucester drawing with keighley and coventry beating Barrow at the moment!
gloucester now 16-10 up

It looks like 8 - 44 not a bad days work away from home. Well done to all.

FT Dons win 44-8.

Well Spiers and Kesik have scored and Carr only two out of nine tries.
Something is up!

You get some twits on Twitter.

So 10 points (potentially) not obtained after Carr stopped kicking. That is an even better afternoons work. Glass half full

WOW Gloucester 40 points v keighley could be some game next week.

Yes has the making of a really good game and well done to the All Golds, 44-22 at 79mins.

Tom missed 5. Jordan missed 1 and kesik kicked one.

Thanks for the update so 12 points

'Twas exactly what I thought.
I was more concerned Carr might have got crocked.
