Doncaster 0 Siddal 26: Doncaster are left humiliated by Siddal

Siddal are there after clinching a convincing victory over Championship One strugglers Doncaster.

The Conference champions ran in five tries without reply to inflict one of the most humiliating defeats in Doncaster's history.

Siddal coach Lee Greenwood said: "To be honest, it's not really a shock result because everyone around Halifax was expecting us to win.

"Doncaster have been through a bad time and there was a lot of pressure on us because all our fans were expecting a victory."

But even the most hardened Siddal supporter could not have anticipated the margin of the win.

Siddal's defence was the key to keeping Doncaster quiet and the home team fiished the match looking completely demoralised at their failure to make headway.

It was an excellent all-round team display by Siddal who were recording their first win over a League club in their history after going close to beating Swinton last year.

The writing was on the wall as early as the first minute when Scott Caley sprinted through out wide to touch down and Siddal never looked back.

Impressive full-back Brad Attwood scored a 37th-minute try to make it 10-0 at the intervcal and further scores from Gareth Blackburn, Atwood and Caley sealed the win over a ramshackle Doncaster outfit.
