Quote: PTB "Tony Rea found a way of integrating Dorn into a very exciting and productive back line.'"


Yes, he had a second stand-off playing at full-back. Dorn's very left-sided, McLinden was very right-sided, which is why McLinden-Dorn-Leuluai worked.

I like Dorn, he creates tries, he scores tries - though he is a bit of a flat-track bully.

In the absence of anyone new arriving, I would like to see Gale-Dorn-Orr together with Dorn or Gale at 1. Dorn needs to be hidden in defence and playing full-back would take him out of the defensive line. Then again, Gale looks like he would go better at 1 and is probably braver under the ball and a better kick returner.

Thing is McLinden was the only one out of the three who could control a game, take him away and the other two always looked a bit ordinary.

Marty could see the bigger picture, the other two were individuals who played in a team, and were given licence to have that individual role, because it worked for the team. Wigan and New Zealand have worked him out that you can't make him play like a regimented traditional 7 and Wigan actually use him to good effect. Dorn looked poor at Salford as he was reigned in, scored alot of tries at Cas, but still looked a little out of sorts, pretty similar to us last season, bag full of tries, but when we needed and experienced head, he didn't put his hand up.

So we try and move heaven and earth to lure Marty back? I'd love to see him playing for us again!

This does not surprise me, he was a quality player not only with ball in hand but in his ability to read the game, pure class.

Hmmm he was defensively suspect at times, and his form dipped in the latter stages of his time with us.

Quote: PTB "Jamie Thackrey – this is the player who moved from Leeds to Hull and then back to Leeds citing “homesickness”.

And people are suggesting we sign him?'"


I don't think he would like the price off a pint down in London icon_wink.gif If you guys sign him, just pay his wages in beer and he will be more than happy!!! icon_biggrin.gif

I think he had a fall out NBQ as the pair never seemd to talk, pass or anything after about the first third of their last season together. Smith's end with the club was all rather odd.

But like Zeb he gave it everything, more than could be said fo some in the last three months.

Quote: Darthchris "He was a class act when he was here. If he's available and we can afford him would be useful having more options (which him and bridge would add).... that said I wouldn't want to block the route of any of the youngsters into the first team (if any are ready)'"


sorry, talk me through this one. where has this come from. interesting if true, as will be a good signing for you, but seems to be getting himself sorted out and established at the wire now.

It's just speculation, we need a centre/standoff to add some class to our back line, it looks like Wire need to make some space next season to accomodate their signings and Bridge is one of those who looks out of place.
