Kwadwo Baah could cause them some problems if he gets in a one v one situation with their right back
Doncaster Key Players
#DRFC Squad is full of very talented L1 & above standard players.
The 3 players I feel are key to Doncaster are:
Taylor Richards
Fejiri Okenabirhie
Ellery Balcombe
2 other special mention are their 2 CB Tom Anderson & Andy Butler

A video of him again showing his ability to run with the ball & showing he has a strike in him to
Definitely a player to watch out for in the future. In the meantime Dale will have to make sure he is not given too much space to be allowed to carry the ball up the pitch. https://twitter.com/questtv/status/1340371320408662023

To conclude the thread ...
It’s 2 of the highest scoring teams coming up against each other but 1 team can defend the other can’t - Guess the one that can’t defend?
Doncaster are on good form & are looking serious promotion contenders.
Dale have a injury crisis in defence ...

Dale have a injury crisis in defence ...
which is going to make a tricky game already even trickier.
I would snatch a point of your hand right now if it was offered!
I’m expecting Dale to put up a fight but feel Doncaster will just edge it - - win! - Hopefully I’m wrong (It is a Tuesday night)
