Dont know what all the fuss is about, Dobson's nothing startling. In fact, hes very ordinary and a typical reserve grade NRL player.

Now, Cooper Cronk, theres a [igood [/ihalf if ever i saw one.

not agree with anyone here but the fact is ,and i quote Brian Noble "we offered michael a choclate bar rovers offered him the whole choclate factory" suggests HKR offered him a lot more money than hull or wigan where prepared to offer or could under the salary cap ,if all clubs had offered the same terms i would have thought he would have gone back to wigan with him knowing the place and the players ,if we lost out due to been greedy then we and wigan lost a great signing ,but i would have thought it was more to do with cap restrictions ,thats why they introduced it tbf

Exactly! Until he wins rovers a trophy I don't think we've missed out on something special

Course you have. He's a young fit scrum half who is injury free, has a few off games but will grow in stature.
Meanwhile you have signed a 33 year old who thinks his best days are behind him by producing a book with quotes that would see him banned for all manner of things.
PS wheres this house you bought him? and you think Dobson was expensive.

Its likely to be a house the club own that they are allowing him to move into for a small rent.
Rovers had several in the 80's which the overseas players used to get.

He's still old and injury prone.

ps is the house near a bookies?

Dobson's agent advised him not to sign for hull, after a previous client of his was treat like garbage by hull. THIS IS FACT

I think if you read back it was hinted at mate

To be honest pal, couldn't be bothered to read through 13 pages of total nonsense lol

Your on the wrong site with that outlook fella

not the attitude to be on rlfans

You would have released Dykes or Sing who were both jiggered by that point.
His agent and Hull's offer meant he chose Rovers.
We have laboured it too long now.
Move on.
Dobbo did.

Do keep up. The irrefutable proof Hull FC wanted and could accomodate him in 2008 is that we signed James Webster. On a deal for 7 games max. And subject to getting a British passport. That's the same as Dobson's chocolate factory deal for 15 rounds at Rovers as an overseas player

Speaking of labouring points


Right on queue.

Once you missed out on Dobbo who else was available.
Hard for you to accept i know but come on its been over a year now and it did enable you to go out and snare Thorman.
So every cloud and all that.

"At that point" was 7th May. So you are saying that we could accomodate under the cap a pay-off for either one of those players (our highest paid players apart from Berro) for the remaining 15 rounds, and give Dobson the chocolate factory deal? Sing was not "jiggered" at that point. In fact he played 14 out of the last 15 rounds and won us the CC quarter final at Odsal.

im not gonna say it again.......

Which beggars the point why did Kath and co actually went to Oz to sign a half back...apart from visiting her family.

Thankyou Hull fans

In April? Doubt it somehow. Is that dykes and sing who were both instrumental in getting us to wembley last year? You really are clutching at straws now aren't you
