Rovers vs Barrow

[Peebles Rover]

Okay half.  Rovers competing and battling well, but keeping waiting for us to properly click into a gear

[RugbyRover]

I thought that was poor.

[KingKendrick]

Solid half that. Could be a bit sharper in the final 3rd but look solid at the back. Brown and maxwell both putting a shift in tonight

[Wiltshire Exile]

I thought that was poor.

Enlighten us, please: why was it so poor?

[Silkscarf]

We look like a team now. It doesn't work perfectly all the time, but 1-11 we look pretty good.

What a player Tommy Rowe is to have as cover for every position.

[Canadian Rover]

I thought that was poor.

Surely that was decent? Not real Madrid or Man City like...but we are Doncaster Rovers. Lots of good passing, shots and creative play. I'll take another half like that!

[goalkick]

Is I follow ok tonight

[normal rules]

Ok for me fingers crossed

[adamtherover]

Some cracking interplay with triangles very sod esque!!!

[ncRover]

The lads are getting stuck in more as well.

[Filo]

Can someone get Mitchell a chair please

[normal rules]

Olowu looks solid.
Hurst busy.
Molly lively.
Brown and close linking up.
Another rovers goal early on should seal this

I think we're a bit away from that, but its getting better.  We look better in defence. We don't dominate though like some SOD performances

[RugbyRover]

I thought that was poor.

Enlighten us, please.

I thought we were supposed to be a possession based team. Instead we just hit the channels were Miller can't hold the ball up. Back three are too slow moving the ball. Too many risky passes played by JO and Nelson into the middle. Losing headers Hurst taking bad options. If we weren't winning there would be more not satisfied.

[Thorney]

Look comfortable. Olowu had some erratic moments early on.
Hurst has frustrated me with delaying getting a shot away and then losing the chance.

But all in all, ok for first half. Let's keep pushing for a 2nd and put this to bed. Barrow don't look to have much.

Would get miller off for lavery early in this half. He has played alot of minutes and looks tired to me. It wouldn't weaken the side.

[NickDRFC]

Bit of a funny half. Thought at times we played some really good stuff but equally we were pretty sloppy a fair bit. The defence looked a bit shaky early on (particularly Olowu) but then not really threatened much afterwards. Would like to see us kick on a bit second half as I think there’s an opportunity for a couple more goals but would be quite happy with more of the same and a 1-0 win.

If we get the win so will I

[Peebles Rover]

Why are our throw ins so shite??

Fair enough, RR.

[Peebles Rover]

Don't like the way this half is going.  Wewseem to have stopped playing

Who’s Wewseem?   

[Dutch Uncle]

Olowu seems to be having a good game

[Peebles Rover]

We need to change things or we'll lose this lead

[Barmby Rover]

Interesting that Lavery might be coming on, keep George on with him.

[normal rules]

Miller off. He is such an enigma. Loads of effort. No goals. His first touch ability is poor for me.

[normal rules]

Olowu seems to be having a good game

He’s been solid.

[ScillyRover]

I can see us conceding a late goal at this rate.

[normal rules]

Oh dear. Ten bob needed for meter

[ScillyRover]

Someone’s pulled the plug on the lights!!

[Peebles Rover]

This better not be postponed
