Doncaster RLFC • Re: League One Results Grid 2022
Weekend Results:
Cornwall 24, Hunslet 36. Hunslet were 12-0 down and looked very unconvincing for much of the first half.
N Wales 30, London 16. N Wales were leading 16-12 at half-time. They're clearly not in the same form as they were.
Keighley 86, W Wales 0. Keighley took another step to being crowned champions.
Midlands 34, Rochdale 42. Rochdale were 28-10 up at half-time but conceding 34 can't be pleasing for them.
Swinton 12, Dons 26. A great come back from the Dons after being 12-0 down.
Two points separate second to fifth with all to play for in the battle for second. The Dons have beaten all teams now except Keighley and Rochdale. We've got to play both at home.
I've watched most of the Cornwall games on Our League and it's been apparent from those games that all teams except Keighley look vulnerable this season.
The door is certainly open for the Dons to press on and get second place. The results grid becomes more interesting now as we can see which teams sides have got left to play. The 'toughies' for the Dons are the two home games against Keighley and Rochdale and the away game at Hunslet. If we can beat Rochdale and Hunslet and avoid any banana skins elsewhere (possibly at Midlands and Oldham), we'll have 30 points.
We need to boost our points difference or else that could come back to haunt us. We're 98 points adrift of Rochdale, 121 behind N Wales and 181 behind Swinton. Unless we beat Keighley, there's a fair chance points difference could determine our finishing position. We've got some good opportunites to give our points difference a boost with Cornwall, N Wales, and Skolars to come.
Next Weekend:
Saturday: Cornwall v Dons (free to watch on Our League - kick-off 1pm)
London v Keighley
Midlands v N Wales. We could do with the Midlands winning this.
Sunday: Hunslet v West Wales. An opportunity for Hunslet to improve their points difference.
Oldham v Rochdale. The best outcome for the Dons would be an Oldham win.
It's all getting quite interesting now...
