You would think behind closed doors. Early start.

Fixture congestion due to a late start may mean we have to play at the same time as Stock Cars. What a rush that would be.

Just a thought is the new north stand going to be all standing or partial?

Well, no chance of lenagan signing up to the new deal. Remember how much fuss he made about having been rushed into signing the last one? Given that this one's half the size he'd look a total bell end were he to put pen to paper

We’ve lost quite a lot of props recently; Paul Clough, Adam Walne, Ukuma Taai and Suaia Matagi.

We’ve signed Jack Ashworth and will be announcing the signing of Luke Yates soon.

I’d imagine Jones and Kenny Edwards will be our starting 2nd row with Joe Greenwood off the bench. McQueen will be used as a utility forward. I don’t see him making our strongest 17.

We’ve also been trying to get rid of James Gavet but heard he’s staying for now.

I’m quite looking forward to seeing James Cunningham in a Giants shirt. Читать дальше...

The RL ITK guy on Twitter thinks Catalan have put more money down for Tetevano. Seems to be indicating we may lose out here

But I think the Season Ticket holders did get to stream the games for free (rather then having to pay)

This is my understanding of how the academies are funded - I'm happy to be corrected if someone knows more.
The RFL is in charge of academies - funding them, assessing them, licensing them. But, the funding the RFL doles out comes from SL TV contract money which is transferred over from SL, rebadged and handed over to the clubs which have academies. Mainly SL, but now down to 3 non-SL clubs.

A couple of questions. Only licensed academies can receive central funding. Is there anything to... Читать дальше...

I think the number of teams is unlikely to change, certainly in the short term.

The sole reason behind my comment is that the TV money is equally shared between the teams, so to add in 2 more teams, means less money for the remaining 12. It would equate to approx 250k per team per year, on the current deal that they would need to drop. Can you realistically see many (if any) of the existing club chairmen voting to increase the number of teams, whilst accepting reduced share of the TV money. Читать дальше...

10 team League 1 , 18 league games .

I get the impression from this that Rads has made it clear that it’s get fully fit or bust. It also confirms he will be with us in 2021. I do really hope it gets sorted and we get a fully fit GB starting and playing well for us. He’s a real asset if he can get that sorted, if not he needs to do the right thing by himself and retire.

It's been a very strange year and many people's plans for the festive period will be very different to normal. So I just wanted to wish everyone connected to the Dons ...

Coaching and backroom staff
Players
Club Doncaster representatives involved with the Dons
Matchday staff
Sponsors
and of course those hardy souls who follow the rugby, the Dons Supporters

... the best possible time over the coming days in the unusual and difficult circumstances ...

Warrington isn't really a rugby league town the same way Wigan and St Helens are.

It's a town that has a rugby league club in it, but its not the same.

But also, you have to take your hat off to the culture in Wigan for its young players. Considering they play for the 'biggest club', the Wigan juniors seem to be serious-minded and don't tend to have big egos. Shaun Wane's squads always had a large contingent of young players who had fantastic attitudes. Wigan seems to have a way of... Читать дальше...

Could easily see no Championship in 2021. If we are in Tier 4 still or worse come April/May you start to run out of weeks to fit in all the games taking player welfare into account. I suppose you could divide Championship into East & West to reduce fixtures with the 2 top teams playing off for the promotion spot but still can't see most Championship clubs wanting to play any games behind closed doors.

But you never know, things may improve but i wouldn't bet on it.

Rovers will be well below the cap and one of the lowest spending teams. Money has been spent wisely though and I expect us to improve.

Judging by the last couple of comments, sounds like we’re well rid.

Wouldn’t get in our back row now anyway after the form of Cator, Savelio and Mau.

Giants are welcome to him.

Some of the incompetent people foisted on us by the RFL turned out to be nobheads who stiffed their creditors. And what point is that making?
