We all know you have an agenda mate and in this instance you are trying to steer people towards the view that Rovers recruitment, specifically in the front row, has not been a success.
I would call that propoganda.

so James Graham aint coming any more then???

I'd call it my opinion. Ive never and never will have an agenda. Definite paranoia!!



Out of interest i'd be keen to hear what my agenda is? Youve not answered my previous point when i asked for proof. No need for the personal attack on me and knocker either!!

you do spend a lot of time in Dobins posts stirring things up.......

Doesnt mean i have an agenda. I like the banter and the debates. RBA similarly spends a fair bit of time of the FC forum. Does he have an agenda too?

im not bothered about anyones agendas, but its fair to say if you look down the last 10 Dobin posts that the majority are very quickly hijacked by the other side, where as if you look through Dulls last 10 posts not very many have been hijacked at all. which to me says that too many of you Dull fans are just looking to argue and drag down, of course Dobins fans do it too, but at least the majority do it in our own pages.

I dont think anyone has even sang theres only one Garrett Crossman as far as I can remember

thank god there is only 1

Its a dodgy gay bar in town

Wouldnt know!

See its your own fans hijacking this thread, ive asked a serious question.

Whooooah...its only what i've heard

If you can be bothered to come with a list of possibles, I'll rank them from 'thrilled to bits' (I dunno, Jeff Lima, maybe?) through to 'disappointed' (Paul King, for example).

Hannant, Canterbury Bulldogs
White, Melbourne Storm
Shillington, Canberra Raiders
Civoniceva, Penrith Panthers

Lima, Melbourne Storm
Moi Moi, Parramatta
Blair, Melbourne Storm
Nuuausala, Sydney Roosters
Harrison, Canberra Raiders

Thats the props from boths squads and, imo, in order of playing ability.

Recruitment will be judged at the end of next season just like yours.
Thorman was thought to be a good recruit this time last year dont forget.

Quite a tidy bunch. Any 2 from those will see Rovers right - good work.

With only one quota space available ????

Without taking this thread very seriously, our quota situation is unclear.

Fitzhenry, Webster, Newton, Galea, and Dobson might have been our 5 last season. However Crossman and Dobson overlapped, so 1 of those 6 may not be quota. If the 1 who isn't, isn't Crossman or Fitzhenry, it must be one of JW, CN, BG or MD - leaving us with just 3 quota players and [ipossibly[/i 2 spaces.

So on to the overseas trained. We can have six. The 3 quota players count. Assuming Dobson is one of them (ie isn't the mystery non-quota antipodean), that leaves 3 spaces - as all our other overseas players were here before Feb 2008. So, if that is right, and it is a big if, then we could, in theory sign two quota players and a Kolpak.

Ever heard of the dispensation rule?




Ah oh to be Wiganesque.eh

I wouldnt know who was available mate. I was just wondering what Rovers fans expectations would be. Obviously we have King, Thacks and Cordoba looking for new clubs. Im pretty sure most Rovers fans would be disappointed with any of those 3.

There were rumours a while ago Ryan Bailey was been ditched, what about him?

Overseas, for any announcement to be put back til after the 4 nations could be positive for Rovers fans if it means its a first choice international player. On the flip side it might just be that no ones available.

Indeed. Wouldnt stop immediate feeling one way or the other though. Guess my original question was trying to gauge what Rovers fans expectations are as to what level the new signing/s will be?

Not by me he wasn't

No, because our primary targets are not playing in the 4 nations so end of thread.
