think most teams would struggle if they had a fish coaching them

A few more dream team appearances than any of our halves.

Even Longy?

Both Leigh halfs did more on 15 mins against Leeds than ours did in 80mins.

He never did it when playing for us though.

Cooke, Horne have been in the dream team in the halfs also iirc.

Still been 1 of our pivots.

Horne must have been in 2006.

He wasn't.

Cooke made it in 2005 though.

Richard Horne was 2004

Seriously who cares who's been in the dream team.

I'd take Dobson without a doubt, Seb is an idiot. Leuluai will be good but he's not got the attributes that were really looking for and need.

The attributes I'm looking for in a half back is that they are better than we have and they will improve us as a team. Leuluai, Campese and Dobson all tick those boxes.

Typical FC fan. Ill take him as hes better without any thought of long term progress. Will Dobson take us to top eight - yes. Top four - no! Challenging for either Grand final or CC - No!

Has to be Campese for me. Don't want to see that rovers reject/lower sl journeyman who cant get a game in the nrl anywhere near us

Thurston won't come.

Campese would be great for the development of HTW. He is who we need to think of long term, and he will learn a lot more from Campese than he will from Dobson.

Dobson: Rovers reject and journeyman are not too words I would associate with him.

How the hell is Dobson a Rovers reject ffs?

Apparently the definition of reject is a player who Rovers desperately wanted to keep, but said player chose to return home and play in a superior competition.

See there was me thinking reject would mean someone who was too bang average even for Rovers to want to keep. Say.. Liam Colbon for example

So Mason isn't a Rovers reject then?

Technically he doesnt fit the description I used as he left to go and play for Toulon, which isnt his home country nor a superior sport let alone competition

Journeyman - still only 28 and has played at Catalan, Wigan and HKR in Sl plus Canberra and Newcastle in the NRL. Has never won a thing, has never played in any champion or even great sides. Can do some of the basics to a high standard but nothing special in the big picture. We need a Walsh and not a Dobson if were gonna take the massive step from being the we are to a proper team.

dobson would be much better than what we've had but he needs a goo player alongside him. He never helped rovers rise above mid table mediocrity so there is no reason to believe him and, say, rankin would do any better for us. Academic as we won't sign him

Who do you lot think you are? Newsflash: Thurston, Cronk and Cherry-Evans arent coming. Every clubs fans want to sign top, top players, but some of you are expecting to sign the calibre of player that just isnt going to happen. Therefore its open season on anyone you are linked too because they arent good enough for whatever reason. Youre 10th in SL, Dobson would be a good signing for you. Take the blinkers off just cos he wore the red n white for 5 years.

Not all FC fans think Dobson isnt good enough, he has already proven to be a very good player in SL and one of the top 3 halfs when he was here.

Don't listen to some of the dipsticks that think we are a top 2 club and should by right be signing Cronk.

What people are failing to realise is that a 7 does not make a team. All the other players, plus a 7 make the team. Dobson would be good in our current team. Our total team though does not play together. Put any 7 in our current team and expect instant results and it will simply not happen.
