Captain Rob Jones is a major doubt for Doncaster ahead of Bournemouth's visit to the Keepmoat Stadium.

Jones was taken to hospital with a badly swollen forehead on Tuesday night following a clash of heads with a Crewe player midway through the first half of Rovers' 2-0 home defeat.

The defender suffered concussion and will continue to be monitored but it is likely that Shelton Martis, who came on as Jones' replacement at centre-half against Alex, will return to the starting line-up.

The same can also be said of David Cotterill who has recovered from his recent calf complaint.

However, fellow winger Kyle Bennett will remain on the sidelines with a knee injury and is not expected to be fit until the end of the month.
