Southend boss Phil Brown pondering changes
Southend boss Phil Brown is likely to change his starting line-up for the first time in four games when Doncaster visit Roots Hall on Saturday.
Monday's 4-0 humbling by Millwall was the Shrimpers' heaviest home defeat in nine years and leaves them outside the Sky Bet League One play-off places on goal difference.
On-loan striker Joe Pigott, who came off the bench against the Lions, is set to return to parent club Charlton after the match against Rovers but is vying to make his first start in 10 games.
Gary Deegan and Stephen McLaughlin are also pushing for recalls while Michael Timlin (heel) is nearing a return to fitness.
Doncaster boss Darren Ferguson has some selection issues.
Everton defender Felipe Mattioni has a hamstring injury which could threaten his impending loan extension until the end of the season while Andy Butler broke his nose in Monday's win at Oldham.
Cameron Stewart and Curtis Main are sidelined by back injuries while Gary MacKenzie (ankle) is a long-term absentee.
Harry Forrester has a bout of tonsillitis but he is unlikely to feature anyway amid reports of a move to Rangers.
