Thomas put through over the top but the keeper is out very quick and blocks it. Thomas couldnt manage to get a touch to put it round him.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

We are having a go. Pleased about that!

 

[Nick]

Thomas and Hiwula have swapped now.

 

[Esoterica]

Their already booked number 5 is so slow. He's in for a torturous rest of the afternoon.

He's a bit of a mountain, we need to be hassling him. Chaplin / Thomas etc. He won't be able to get close so likely to foul again.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Don't go backwards with free kicks. Put them under pressure, not ourselves!

 

[shmmeee]

Playing well Thomas is on fire.

 

[Nick]

Back to them knocking it around now.

 

[Nick]

Their 10 tries the most obvious nutmegs on Brown but he shuts his legs.

Keeping tabs on the game while on holiday. It's 30C here and not a cloud in the sky. What's the weather like at the game?

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Doncaster losing at home to Wimbledon. If they don't pull that back, I predict a sacking.

 

[Nick]

Grimmer is really struggling against their left winger.

 

[shmmeee]

Great save from Burge

 

[Nick]

Very good one handed save from Burge, brown looks stranded on his own at left back. Their player cuts in and gets a shot and saved. Rebound deflected over.

 

[Nick]

Doyle booked for a late tackle, hopefully doesn't take him massively out of the game like it has in the past.

Surprised it’s only his second yellownof the season.

Edit: of course that's from CWR so god knows if it’s true!

 

[shmmeee]

Theyre getting back into this.

 

[Nick]

Theyre getting back into this.

Both wingers look dangerous

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Need to get on the front foot again.

 

[Esoterica]

Burge is so solid these days. Don't think I've ever seen such a big positive transformation in a Cov player.

 

[cc84cov]

JUST give Thomas the Foooking ball !!!

 

[Nick]

Good counter, Bayliss puts Hiwula through but not much support up for him on the left and the pass goes to them.

 

[Nick]

We can't get the ball off them, when we do we just end up giving it back to them too easily.

 

[Nick]

Another good save from Burge with his leg.

Their wingers are hammering our full backs. Running straight through every time.

 

[shmmeee]

Another top save from Burge

 

[Nick]

Can see Doyle ending up being sent off today.

So far him and JCH anonymous, he is just fouling a lot. Bayliss only doing stuff to attack and a bit shaky defensively, they are just running throuhg us.

Anyone on the bench that could change it up?

Are you Nick in disguise?

 

[Nick]

Quite lucky then, shot for them looked very close to going top corner but their corner blocked it.

JCH gets the ball but absolutely no support to lay it off. Chaplin was there but had about 3 players in between him and JCH.

 

[shmmeee]

Be lucky to reach half time at 0-0 at this rate.

 

[covcity4life]

Hiwula been poor. And brown still looks likely to make a bad mistake

Thomas only one attacking really. And bayliss

 

[Nick]

Grimmer doing the most he has done this half with a 2 handed push in the back to their player.

 

[covcity4life]

Burge sensational saves
