Tuesday’s clash against Lincoln City in the Papa Johns Trophy saw Rovers snap a three-game losing streak after making nine changes from last weekend’s 1-0 defeat to Swindon Town.
Several players caught the eye that match, which served in part as an audition for this weekend.
Doncaster also finished the game with two strikers on the pitch, having made a tactical switch with 30 minutes to play that helped swing the game in their favour.
Could that be the key to unlocking their malaise in front of goal?

6. CB - Joseph Olowu
Solid upon his return to the side on Tuesday and looked to be building a good partnership with Ro-Shaun prior to his injury, which is what Doncaster could do with in defence. Photo: HOWARD ROE, Howard Roe/AHPIX LTD

A big opportunity for the skipper to strike up a partnership with Ben Close, who could compliment him well in the middle. Photo: HOWARD ROE, Howard Roe/AHPIX LTD

Made an impressive long-awaited return in midweek. Rovers can't afford to keep him back any longer. Photo: Howard Roe/ahpix.com
