Rovers at full-strength for opener

Doncaster boss Paul Dickov will select his side for the 2015-16 Sky Bet League One opener against Bury from a fully-fit squad.

Rovers have had a productive pre-season and have a clean bill of health, with all the squad taking part in training this week.

Six players are in the hunt for a debut, with summer signings Thorsten Stuckmann, Gary MacKenzie, Richard Chaplow, Andy Williams, Dany N'Guessan and Aaron Taylor-Sinclair all hoping to get the nod.

Youngster Mitchell Lund will start at right-back, with no senior option for Dickov to choose.

The promoted Shakers are likely to field at least four of their six summer signings at the Keepmoat Stadium.

Leon Clarke and Tom Pope are set to form a new strike force with Peter Clarke slotting into central defence and goalkeeper Christian Walton, on loan from Brighton, also poised to play.

Another new recruit, midfielder Jacob Mellis, is fit after a minor niggle in pre-season while Andrew Tutte and forward Daniel Nardiello have also overcome slight problems.

Striker Ryan Lowe will miss out with an ankle injury but defender Danny Pugh is another potential debutant.
