Being pragmatic, I think Swinton deserved the win over all, it was just frustrating to have the chances to do a smash and grab and not take it.
One hint on how to avoid not having a boat load of penalties against you however, is it stop fouling

| Were there no opportunities for drop goals?
I remember Wayne Parker dropping about 4 or 5 in the second half of one game to secure a win.
Being camped out on Swinton's line suggests there were lots of chances.

| Not so much the penalties as much as those 50/50 decisions like the breakaway and pass that was adjudged forward and Smiths little kick which led to several knocks ons and a possible offside but ended in a try!
I honestly dont think you were half as good as us,not trying to be smart. What Donny are good at it ball control,completing sets and doing the simple stuff well. You did lack flair apart from Kesik who is a class above and our defence was incredible. A donny win simply would not have been a true reflection of the game,and yes I know Im biased!

Come on Donny you were well beaten and the scoreline in no way reflects the game,just Mr Laughtons incompetence.

 2 points between us at the end of the game, this post makes me laugh. Great Saturday morning comedy.

| Well how the hell, if our attack was so ineffective, did we get 5 tries?
How the hell did a forward not score?
We are scoring tries with flair players, yet we have little creative half-back talent. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to see that needs sorting does it?
If we are to progress, why are we playing players that don't fit the job description?

Arrogant pillock. You are deservedly top of the table and for the first time in a good while Swinton have a decent side, no one can deny that but the arrogance of some Swinton fans postings are breathtaking.

| Potts showed some blistering pace but was defemsively niaive. Was great to see him take their winger on on the wing.
Did anyone notice the number of stewards at the Donny end? Are they not used to vocal supporters?

[size=150Marshy1[/size obviously did (i believe a Swinton Fan) and he states in his post---- [size=150Best of luck in your remaining games and playing like you did you will win the playoff final[/size.
A more honest and true reflection of the game than yours i would suggest.
Mr Laughtons incompetence probably equals the incompetence you yourself have in reporting a game.

| I'm not particularly interested in arguments between supporters.
Swinton won both matches, they have the bragging rights.
It doesn't matter about Ronnie Laughton either.
There are more fundamental questions to be answered, regarding things that ARE under our control and lessons to be learned.
I want to know, apart from the fact that Swinton scored more points than us, why we lost.
I want to know who performed well in that side and what can be done to improve our chances of creating more tries.
Was that side that was put out last night the strongest side from the available players?
I need someone to convince me that it was.
Any takers?

| Quote Marshy1="Marshy1"Just rtead all your comments and I would like to say unlucky to Doncaster your team played really well and gave us a good game.
However none of you have mentioned the fact that in both games a certain Mr laughton officiated and gave the two worst displays of refereeing I have seen in years.Now this isn't sour grapes as of course we won but even the most biased Donny fan must agree that he kept you firmly cammped out on Swinton's line, It was only virtue of the fact we stood resolute that you didn't get over and win it.
Best of luck in your remaining games and playing like you did you will win the playoff final.'"
Thanks Marshy for a more unbiased opinion of the game.
