TEAM NEWS: Knights travel London Scottish away

28th March 2025

Doncaster Knights set out for revenge as they travel down to London Scottish this weekend. The chosen team for the test is as follows:

There are no changes to the forwards pack that defeated Ealing Trailfinders. Our props Logovi’i Mulipola and Joe Jones join hooker George Roberts after a Stella scrummaging show last week. Captain Ben Murphy and Josh Williams remain in the second row. With Adam Hopkinson, Rhys Tait and Morgan Strong in the back row again. 

There are no changes to the forward replacements either, props Conor Davidson and Lewis Thiede line up with hooker Ben Chapman. Cory Teague and Archie Smeaton are also on the bench. 

Our starting half back pairing is the same, Alex Dolly and 9 and Morgan Bunting at 10. With the same duo on the bench, Ollie Fox and Russell Bennett. George Wacokecoke comes into the centres to partner Zach Kerr. 

Telusa Veainu keeps his spot at full back, with Maliq Holden on one wing. However, our newly announced loan signing Obi Ene slots into the other wing. Ene has joined us from Sale Sharks. 

Loan player Will Parry, who has returned from his Premiership Cup stint in Bath, comes onto the bench.
