Quote: bringbackbuck "On this season's evidence I'd swap Long for Dobson, but I wouldn't if I was guaranteed Long would play every week.

Dobson is a decent player, but has failed in the nRL, he's a decent SL player but by no means top draw.'"


Dobson never failed in the NRL so don't see where your coming from. He came over to England because he wasn't getting the necessary game time which he needed to develop his game and his career. He will definitely head back to the NRL at some time in the future. If he isn't top drawer then who else is a better kicker, organiser and general in SL who is actually fit and on the pitch every week.

If you are not part of the solution then you are more likely part of the problem...:

I suspect his poor defence is a bigger issue across in the NRL so as you say he has a bit to work on before going back there and being a success IMO.

His injury record is second to none and the guy cant half kick a ball.

If we do sign Blake Green it will be a cracking young partnership.

Dobsons a good player and would of improved us simply by offering stability and a great kicking game. We didnt sign him because he needed a contract from the season he came or his visa would of expired and we could only offer one from the season after due to visa restirctions. Nothing more to it than that.

I don't see it as a job. It is a passion and love that we all share. Neil Hudgell:30566.jpg

So what if Dobson never quite hit the standard needed over in the NRL, he has been more than decent at Catalan, Wigan and now us.

We signed Berro, a SOO and Test player, you signed Dobbo, an non-fancied 7 with no honours. Dobbo's been a SL smash and Berro has dissapointed.

So I'm with you - what went before is irrelevant if they do a job here.

Thankfully Fitz and Ogre packed their international class and brought it with them when they came.

The visa issue is a fact, believing that Matty Head or anyone else for that matter had anything to do with it is pure speculation.
Now if you'd like to explain to me how we could of fitted Dobson on our quota in 2008 I'd be happy to listen.

I think Dobson is a cracking little player and the reason he never got much of a chance in the NRL was because of his age in a team with 2 seasoned NRL pros ahead of him in the pecking order.He decided to take a gamble of returning to the UK rather than waiting for his chance.His gamble has paid off and no doubt in the future he would walk stright into most NRL teams.

Easily enough, we all know which one would have made way and was very willing too at the time.

But it never happened and everyone is happy with how things turned out

Yeah, I gathered that.
It's just BS. I really don't see the point in all this tbh, I'm happy with Matt Sing's version of events.
