Richard wood

[big fat yorkshire pudding]

Sorry but I'm struggling to see what he offers at all, he has looked rubbish in all the games I've seen so far.

[glosterred]

What’s he good for, absolutely fook all. Disappointing to say the least of what I’ve seen of him so far. Slow, cumbersome to say the least

While i agree , he has made far less mistakes than olowu who has been shocking

[Fal]

How on earth did he play in the championship last season??? He is shockingly bad

The back four are nothing to write home about that’s for sure

I wonder if it has owt to do with the players around him?

Cart horse!

Tend to agree though I thought oluwu was excellent first half he was terrible the second. He's just not consistent.

Nothing to lose giving Faulkner a run.

[glosterred]

Is he only playing because Anderson is injured. Might be a reason and it might be a good idea to give Faulkner or Long a start. Don’t think at the moment they could be much worse

Over the course of a season olowu is going to cost you a lot of goals, no matter what level he’s playing at it. His concentration is awful and he makes so many howlers

[TonySoprano]

Absolutely awful cart horse who should be out on his ear

[Copps is Magic]

Tides turned here... I was ridiculed  pre-season for suggesting this was a daft signing.

[roversdude]

Was pleased when we signed Wood but not impressed so far very slow

[Prez]

Been poor so far, which is frustrating because he came with such high praise from Millers and journalists. Olowu however has been an absolute car crash in the league games. Defending and distribution, just awful.

[Copps is Magic]

Agreed. The sad thing is the one who should be dropped is Olowu. His best option is Anderson-Wood with Faulkner as back up.

[TonySoprano]

Olowu and faulkner for me

[jamesrover17]

Anderson Faulkner I think, current partnership clearly doesn’t work

[sedwardsdrfc]

Butler was our best defender dropped a league to scunny and they were rubbish. Think he struggled that season too. This looks familiar

Just a coincidence that the only competive game we have won so far this season he wasn't playing then?

[Deeping Red]

Wood makes Anderson  look like prime Virgil Van Dijk

[Barmby Rover]

Doncaster Rovers, the place where old footballers retire and die (as footballers). How many over the last three/four seasons? 4? 5? Do we count Tommy Rowe amongst them?

What on earth has that got to do with what I said?

[DonnyBazR0ver]

He's been poor and he certainly doesn't seem to have that positive influence we hoped for, particularly on Olowu.

There's no hiding the fact Joe's all over the place at the mo but neither of them seem to pick up players on crosses and just ball watch.

Then to add to that, when you need your keeper to relieve some pressure by taking some high balls, he's not there which just adds to all the uncertainty in the box.

It's not a good recipe.

It is an answer to your question. The best defensive performance so far this season has come in the only game Richard Wood wasn't playing.

[DRFCTom]

Wood and Anderson for me (slow maybe) but anyone remember a certain pairing of McCombe and Jones

[StocksArmy]

Leader? Pfffft the difference between him and when we signed Rob Jones is chalk and cheese. Its the problem weve had at the club since that era. Theres a voice in the dressing room and a bas@rd on the pitch demanding better from his mates. And then theres Wood who cant have a voice because he doesnt lead by that example. Olowu is purely there for pace because he is not a footballer otherwise. GM is massively to blame for all of this. He hasnt identified how poor they are and i dint know how.

The game has moved on. Even at this level.

[Branton Red]

When people claimed Wood to be another 'Corporal' Jones type figure I presumed they meant Rob Jones.

A strong leader, winner of headers, rugged centre half, threat in the opposition box.

Sadly they appear to have mean the actual Corporal Jones.

Volunteering for tasks he's clearly not up to anymore, slow on his feet, slow reactions with many farcical and shambolic implications (in Rovers penalty area).

Don't panic Mr Olowu! Don't panic! Oh you already have.

[GazLaz]

He’s been part of a shocking team. I think Jaap Stam would look poor in this team.

[Rovers91]

I think the non existent midfield is the massive problem.
