The Dons started the New Year off in winning fashion thanks to a convincing 44-16 victory over a Featherstone Rovers U20's side at a foggy Post Office Road.
Stewart Sanderson got the Dons off to a good start scoring in the fourth minute and further tries from new signing Dennis Tuffour, Mike Emmett and Mike Kelly gave the blue and gold's a 22-6 half-time lead. Sanderson kicked the extras with three out of four successes.
The Dons went on to score another 22 points in the second forty with further tries from Sanderson and Tuffour. Chris Spurr and Craig Fawcett also crossed the whitewash and Sanderson landed another three conversions to make it six out of eight successes to bag a personal 20 points haul.
