The Rugby Football League have decided how they are going to replace the fixtures lost by the absence of Featherstone Rovers in the new-style Championship.
Barrow were one of those and in the rearranged fixtures they will play Doncaster home and away.
It was agreed that the 12 teams who have Featherstone down to play this season would play each other twice to give them 24 games for the season.
The other new fixtures are: Goole v Widnes; London v Hunslet; Swinton v Halifax; North Wales v Salford; Batley v Oldham.
Barrow, who started the Championship season yesterday with a 40-0 home win against Workington Town, will have noted that Doncaster began their campaign with a very good 19-12 home win over Halifax Panthers.
No dates have been issued for the Featherstone replacement games.
