Quote: Dux "Are people not confusing de-registration with contract termination? Surely even while de-registered he is still under contract at HKR.'"

It might be the reality, but the reports are he's had his contract terminated, but they could be wrong

I should imagine they are. HKR would have to be bat-tits crazy to take a risk like that.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

Those were my initial thoughts, but Nigel Wood on Radio Manchester last night said that Dobson could now be signed by any club obviously subject to salary cap and quota regulations.

[quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that. [/quote] Another classic: [quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban. Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player. Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666 0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match". Therefore ZERO.[/quote] Give the girl her dummy back.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_18821.jpg



Im sure there's been a nod and a wink between Dobson and the exiles,he'll be going nowhere.

More than likely as it seems a hell of a risk to take.

I would think we have some kind of agreement with Dobson that he isn't talking to anyone or anything.

It seems Mason entered the country on his NZ passport, still awaiting the return of his Tongan passport I'd assume, and therefore has to be registered with said NZ passport.

Dobson isn't any good to anyone for 2 months, and as others have said we would be foolish to take this risk.

I reckon that "by the book" Rovers have had to indeed "terminate his contract" and will "re-sign" him when Mason comes off the quota.

I don't rate DObson as highly as some, but he is the sort of scrum half our team needs - a general/organiser/kicker.
I like to think our quota spots ar for Superstars, but it would probably work out pretty well for us.

I have followed the LONDON CLUB since I was in my teensl even though born in St Helens and still live nearby and went to the first game at Fulham, also Big West Ham Supporter:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1649.jpg



I am sure HKR have this boxed off! whatever the media may say, you are sounding more and more like Vultures! that is what has ruined Premiership Football with the likes of Chelsea, pity help our game if the only answer to any problem is to raid other clubs!
