I've always liked Dorn, agree with the earlier posts that Salford were stupid to replace Andrew Dunneman with the very individually minded Luke Dorn.

Brian Mac played Dorn at 7, and he looked real good there, free of responsibility and ran around like a crazy person.

Now Hill seems to run all of our wider running plays, and Dorn would fit the bill as a 6 there.

He would be a popular return to London, not exactly gonna make headlines, but he appears to be one of the best and most realistic players we have been linked with.

It appears we are going to go Australian, and Dorny already playing for us and in England for many years knows the difference between the European game and the NRL.

Dorn has shirt no. 1 at Cas and that's where he started the season. But Matterson soon realised that it wasn't a good idea at all and moved him to the halves where he belongs. It was about as successful as TR's experiment in playing Dennis Moran at full back a few seasons ago.

Wouldn't touch him with Wigans barge pole!

poplar panther must be getting excited about a possible return for this world class forward who can tackle well.

Oh he'd be more than welcome. Sign for us and then get an offer to play in the NRL, can't believe we didn't ask for something in return for him from North Queensland, he plays every week out there

Not sure what to make of this. Part of me thinks that second spells are rarely as productive as their first and I don't honestly think he's developed as a player [ithat[/i much since leaving us. On the other hand, we're plainly unable to compete for the big australian players, so maybe its a case of making the best of what we've got.

Can we stop pretending that either HP or Scott Hill are 'organisers'. Neither is or has ever been a first receiver. So we don't necessarily require a first receiver to replace either of them.

HP isn't as such but Hill is the main organiser of he whole side. He dictates play.

You are utterly, utterly wrong. All his career Hill has played outside an organiser - Kimmorley, Cronk, now Orr. Hill doesn't guide the team around the pitch, he chooses when to inject himself at second receiver. He will touch the ball around 3 times less than Danny Orr does and around 5 times less than Chad Randall.

Yer exactly, he organises the ATTACK, hence injecting himself at second reciever. Attacking kicks, passing movement etc.

HP and Hill are key decision makers and they do organise the side by choosing which direction our attacking play will go. It doesn't really matter if they don't play at first receiver, they are players who team mates look to pass to when a decision needs to be taken.

Dorn is a running standoff, it's very nice watching him intercept and run in long range tries, but he's not going to guide the side around the field. As a player he is not as good as HP or Hill, no matter how much fans like him (and I do like him), so he's not going to replace the undoubted talents those players bring to the side.
