2026 Release List

Doncaster Rugby League can confirm the release status of the playing squad ahead of the 2027 season.

Released: Loui McConnell, Alex Sutcliffe, Andre Savilo, Pauli Pauli, Gadwin Springer, Bureta Faraimo

Retiring: Connor Robinson, Reece Lyne, Luke Briscoe

Speaking on the departures, Doncaster Rugby League Chief Executive Carl Hall said: “I want to thank every player leaving the club for what they have given during their time here. Each of them leaves this club in a better place than they found it, and that is all we ask.

“The plan was to finish in the top four in 2026 and the top two in 2027. We’ve jumped a year and finished in the top two. Three years ago we were in League One, and this year we reached the Championship final. It’s been a wonderful year for us, and the plan now is to reach Super League next year.

“These players all wanted to leave us going up. They have left us very close, and now we need to do the rest. That will be our motivation going forward, as we continue the good work they started.  The boys we sign will take us to the next level. 

“On behalf of Doncaster Rugby League and Club Doncaster, we wish them the best of luck for the future and every success in the next chapter of their careers.”
