Knights centurion Alex Dolly re-signs for 2026/27

16th April 2026

Doncaster Knights are delighted to confirm that Alex Dolly will remain with the club for the upcoming season.

Heading into his sixth season with the Knights, the Australian-born scrum-half has firmly established Doncaster as his home, becoming a key figure both on and off the field.

Dolly reached the milestone of 100 appearances this season, underlining his importance to the club and cementing his place as a core member of the squad. A natural leader, he continues to play a vital role within the group, driving standards and supporting those around him.

Despite facing a long-term injury at the start of the season, Dolly remained ever-present within the squad environment, continuing to lead, analyse, and support his teammates off the field during his time on the sidelines.

Speaking on his decision to re-sign, Dolly said:

“I’m really glad to have re-signed with the club. It’s a club that means a lot to myself and has given me so much. So as we move into a new chapter, I look forward to giving it a good crack and hopefully producing the results the group and everyone around the club wants.”

Head Coach Darren Fearn added:

“The first word that comes to mind with Dolly is competitor, a bloke who says it how it is. We’ve missed him for large parts of this season, which has been a big loss for us. Having him back fit and competing with Foxy is exactly what the squad needs. Let’s not forget he’s a top class goal kicker, as we saw at the weekend, that will be key for us in putting points on the board moving forward.”
