Just out of interest, what would you regard as a reasonable wage for a scrum half of Dobson's ability and importance to the team?

When you put it that way I think Dobson would have strong case for being our top earner!

He is our main player and as such should be on top money, he should be comparible to any other top overseas player, such as Berrigan, Riddell.

I agree, he's turned out well for you lot, but you still paid over the odds for him and you will do again.

If we're under the cap, why does it matter? I couldn't care less about player's salaries or how much money it took to get them over here. If they all fit under the cap then it isn't a fan's concern IMO.

| If Dobson is getting more than he is worth and we are under the cap, we've got some incredible bargains elsewhere in the squad. His value does seem to fluctuate according to how likely he is to leave, for certain posters. Not me though...
I'll wait until he is actually gone before I decide he was rubbish.

So, we paid "over the odds" but you have no idea how much he earns? I would wager a small amount that he is on less than Berrigan and look at the impact he is having on your shower.

How can you agree he is worth every penny, then say we paid over the odds?

I didn't agree he's worth every penny, but i'll admit he's looking more like a £100k + player now then when you 1st signed him. FWIW i think you should pay him what he wants, decent SH's are few and far between at the moment. From our point of view, i'd be quite happy to see the club splash out up to £200k for the likes of Orford.

So whats Dobbo on now and what is he going to be on. Answers on a postcard if you know the answer. No wild guesses now.

| Dobson in his own words is playing the best rugby of his career, therefor will be pushing for a decent wage as will his agent, and to deny he is already on a decent wedge is silly.
Worth it if his form continues, could be a pain in the arris if he drops off the radar.

This isn't a wild guess because my mates auntie, who has cousin who works at a place where he knows someone who knows someone who cleans at the KC and they overheard James Tool say Dobbo had turned down 20k a season to sign for Hull and we were welcome to him at those prices.

| It's quite ironic that the 2 teams who didn't think Dobbo was worth the money were also the 2 teams that made Shaun Briscoe a victim of the salary cap.

Don't know about that, Briscoe came back to the table but was told too late, very poor decision by Hull.
