9 Tries.........Ok it doesn`t make Dorn Darren Lockyer, but nevertheless you cannot fail to see that he is making a positive contribution.

It`s not as though we have a wealth of attacking talent, but Howell and Dorn are equal top try scorers in the club and both in the top ten of scorers in the league.

You are entitled to your opinion. You may not rate him and want to see players with a higher profile..............but we all know we do not have the financial clout to go that route and quite frankly not all of our past `Marquee` signings have been a success.

Let`s take stock at the end of the season and see how Dorn`s try tally compares with others in SL.

imo, that is a stupid comparision.
Hill is very influential when he was in the Quins side, Clubb has no where near that sort of influence that the team lacked when Hill was not avaliable due to injury.

Yeah, fair point.

Hill was in and out the team like a yo-yo, when he was on the field very few players (aside from maybe McLinden and Paul) seemed to know what he was doing and he had the occasional mad moment when he'd try and make a play that was never really on (flashbacks to seeing the ball bouncing slowly along our own 5 metre line after a Hill bullet pass).

I'd like to see minutes played -Dorn v Hill. That would tell a very different story to the “missed 6 games” statistic.

Just look at the results - don't think we've been this high up in the league at this stage of the season in a very long time and we still have our game in hand.

Hill was a great player, but Dorn's overall contribution is significant and valuable.

I think the Hill - Dorn comparison is a such a waste of time when talking about who is the better option for the quins. Hill was in his prime was one of my favourite players, but unfortunately his prime was over before he joined the quins. Hill as far as class goes is hands down a better player than Dorn but I dont think we got enough of that class when he was here.
Dotn this year has scored tries, has try assists and defence has been pretty good, combining well with Danny and is providing a good link to the outside backs
For me the main comparison should be on Orr & Hill Vs Orr & Dorn and in my opinion I think that Orr & Dorn are a much better combination and are better for the team.

As for Finch I am not sure that he would add that much value here especially if he replaced Dorn cause I cant see that he would combine that well with Orr and dont think that we should be wasting a quota spot on someone that is not going to make that much difference. I would like to see us chase a class frontrower or centre as I think that would add much more value
