Maybe get to see Wilson and Starling? Won't be seeing Arundel or Pitts as in Hull squad.

Pitfalls of dual reg, made my feelings known many times, don't like it, but the club have entered into it so we make of it what we can, unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the parent club, they are after all their players. Tough game today against decent opposition, should give us an indication of where we are at. Hoping for a good game, Dons for a narrow win, and hopefully a bigger crowd. Could do without it being a cup final day.

I have it as DONS 24 Dewsbury 20.



But we will have to be at our very best, if we're not 110% we could be well

beaten.



if we win we will be 2nd if we lose with a bonus point we will be no less than 5th.



at the start of season we would have jumped at the chance to be 5th from first 3 games IMO.



My predictions for other results



Sheff 58 Barrow 10

NWC 16 Fev 28

Halifax 28 Batley 20

Leigh 60 Whitehaven 6 [ could be nilled!

Rochdale 18 Keighley 26

Workington 18 Swinton 16 [ could go either way i think

Lets get behind the lads today.

We seemed abit quiet in the stands last week.



LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE COYDs

Dons generally getting a 6-point start on the Handicap Betting.

How ironic is it that the Same ref who blatantly robbed us in the play offs last season was in charge again today! Some of his decisions today baffled me. All game Dewsbury were offside and holding down and he didnt give us a thing but in the second half when we were starting to get on top he awarded Dewsbury penalty after penalty. A few new people were there today and they said not coming again to watch a game of rugby ruined by inconsistent officiating and THAT is the reason why crowds are down. Can anyone explain how a Dewsbury knock on led to a penalty for Dewsbury baffling decision.

What hull lads played and how did they get on? Didn't manage to get to the game today.

Hadley started, played half an hour or so, before leaving the pitch with what looked like a head injury.

Dewsbury better side for me. Too many silly penalties & dropped ball by the Dons .



We will be better when we get some players back from injury & suspension !



COYD

In sport, you have to control the controllable. We have to look at what we did wrong as a team, not what the ref did wrong as a referee. If we'd got our bit right, we would have won today.



Too many handling errors and an inability to deal with kick-offs were two of the reasons for our downfall. We went 10-4 up, dropped the ball from the kick off, then conceded a try in the next set of six. That was the significant turning point in the game, and that was nothing to do with the referee.



I would also question why all our kick-offs went in the same place every time, to a guy who looked very good at collecting them?



I felt we missed the up-front go forward from Russ Spiers and Brett Waller, and no Kyle Kesik didn't help either.



Credit to Dewsbury because they kept going and came back when many others teams wouldn't have done.

I agree, Dewsbury deservedly shaded it.

How did new signings starling and Wilson do?
