Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg



Quote: Remarkable_Rhinos "I agree with the principle.

That said, there are many players that can't get a gig in the NRL but that can easily cut it over here. Michael Dobson for example?'"


Dobson is a pretty average half back - look at where Hull KR are in the table - you have to judge his performances against the top 4 not the rest. Good sides have little difficulty in containing him.

I'd go the other way, and say that it's the club he's at. If he were at a bigger club, with a stronger pack etc then I think he'd be up there with the best (in the SL, still not a patch on NRL!).

Look at Rangi Chase too. I'm not saying Dobson/Chase are world class players, I'm just saying, these are players that couldn't succeed in the NRL, yet are "stand out" over here.

The same COULD (<- Key word!!) apply to Seu Seu.

Sal makes some good points but i can see where RR is coming from but for me the 9 should go to Macca and then give the kid the season there.
I can also see what Smokey is saying re-adding quality along with Moore but i still wouldn't of signed Moore or retained Kirke tbh.

This is always a tricky conundrum. Some players make the jump to a top 4 club (which I hope we are aiming to be again in the not-too distant future) well and look like top players there, having done well at a previous club. Others never make the transition well enough and prove more adept at being modestly-large fish in a fairly small and slightly eutrophied pond.

Like you, I suspect Dobson may be the latter to be honest. Hard to be certain without seeing them in the big games.
