HULL KINGSTON ROVERS is my religion, Craven Park is my church and Jordan Abdull is my God:



Cooke is far more productive than Dobson?

Quote: Gordon Gekko "IMO Cooke is far more productive than Dobson and yet doesn't see anywhere near as much ball.'"


icon_confused.gif: Creative? yes, but productive? Don't think so. Subtle difference between the 2.

I would imagine that if someone went thru the games and worked out a try assist/creation to possession received ratio then Cooke would indeed be streets ahead of Dobson. Dobson gets every scrap of ball yet our attacking stats are very poor....and thats without just the mechanics of getting the team to a good field position...

As i see it Cooke has the superior vision/game reading/handling and , Dobson is the superior attacking kicker and "zippier" player, cannot see why a coach would not try to maximise both players strengths(and try to minimise some major flaws..) for the benefit of the team.....but then again we know why...

And if JM persists with Dobson defending alongside Welham, then teams are going to just flood thru that area every week (and Jason Netherton and Galea when hes back are going to be cream crackered every week..)

Quote: PHOTO FINISH "[iThe sooner Paul Cooke leaves the Hull area the better.

He needs a new challenge and most of all he needs to get away from a City that clearly gets him in trouble.

In my opinion Paul is a class act on the field and I feel it's a shame that things are not the same off the paddock.

Quote: Captain Charisma "Cookes had a raw deal at the start of this year. He's been playing loose man, not stand off where he should be playing. If he had been playing there last night instead of I'Anson then we would have done no worse and probably better.

I have nothing against I'Anson but I don't think he did anything amazing, and Rovers for some reason dont use their stand off as much as they use their scrum half, in a playmaking sense. Everything revolves around Dobson in attack, Paul Cooke should be allowed to get more involved but seems to have been marginalised.

I think he's done well for us but he clearly isn't wanted in the team by Morgan, for whatever reason. So I'd have nothing against him leaving to better his career and take him off our salary cap. Same with Mills, he isn't gonna get in the side so loan him out/release him.'"

Thank you Adam Pearson for giving the faithful hope:



Quote: rover49 "If he is so $hite, why were you lot up in arms with us and him when he signed for us, surely you would have been thanking us for taking him away from the KC.'"


Morgan has a habit of signing poor players and turning them into good players.
In Cookes case he has done the opposite

Way wide of the mark there friar. Cooke is by no means a poor player. The trick is in utilizing him correctly.

Genuine question.
Do you believe Justin Morgan wanted Cooke in the first place,or was it a case of the chairman says "Yes"
As was the case at Chelsea when Abramovitch wanted Chevchenko,but Mourinho didn`t.

Thats because Morgan doesnt sign poor players. He has though got a good record of getting the best out of the players that he signs.
