| What a load of crock.., Dobson and Green are happy because they cannot believe the money Rovers are thowing at them.., e.g. Green was on $20,000 in Aussie, on £75,000 here..., why..??????????????
The messiah Newton is gone.., as some probably know he really does not need his rugby income, daddy looks after him in a big way.., Newcastle next year is the preferred option..
We have paid a very average player £45,000 when he was happy with £25,000...why..????
Without revealing some real truths ( i hope the chairman does in time..).. Mr JM has rammed Rovers right up the jacksy and we have to suffer a couple of poor seasons accordingly.., i am sure if some of the disciples knew the truth the perception would be a universe different...
And Mr Gentle has said no....

Always so positive Larry,
What your saying is JM has shafted us by handing out OTT contracts that we've been stuck with yet surely the extended Dobson an Green contracts have nothing to do with JM. They were announced within days of Morgan being announced as leaving. So if what your saying is true it must be Hudgell who is shafting the club and I for one dont think he is.

Interesting. Why has gentle turned you down? Surely cas or wakey can't match your financial offer or salary cap spend?
To be fair, £75k is an average SL salary so I doubt you'd get much better that green for the same amount would you? And I reckon the 2 cost less than sean long and richard horne have cost Hull this year

| Why does anyone listen to anything Larry says? A member if an NRL first team squad getting paid less than £13,000 a year? The things he says are laughable.
You will also notice everything he ever says is unfounded. Proving him wrong is like trying to nail water to the ceiling!

Really..??? The $20,000 is indeed incorrect , he was a minimum wage squad player in Oz, $50,000 rather than $20,000 , my error, which is still less than half of what Rovers have chosen to pay him....my question is why Rovers feel the need to reward a season of failure.., Green has had some good moments no doubt , he has a good show and go against the poorer teams but his failure to get involved against the Sts, Wigans and Warringtons (even the weakened Huddersfield team ) of this world tells it own story for me..
I know its against the grain for most supporters but a team built around Dobson and Green is not going to frighten the big boys....there is a reason they cant get a gig on decent money in Australia...

He's admitted it was an error and pretty much everything else he's ever posted on here has come true

I understand were larry is coming from as dobbo and green have put some magic in for rovers, I do think they wouldn't get into nil as it is now but I don't think rovers would get any better than these two, we nearly beat wire, we beat Leeds it's just the top four teams are freakishly good and have been established for a long time in super league, I think with s different coach and good ideas and a few more signings in pivotal areas we will do better than this season it's not gonna be an over night jobby and Tompkins is our next signing

| last night bradford were poor in the second half but we still needed to get the ball accross the line, dobson and green showed that given the room to play they can hurt teams. they had a lot more time and freedom in the second half to produce a pass or kick of quality. we need some big go-foward players and a better defence next year if we are to troble the playoffs.

| Larry makes some good points at times but his pinpointing of Dobson and Green not being good enough is IMO wrong. We could have Lockyer at 6 and Thurston at 7 in our team and they'd struggle behind our current pack. Very few players (especially half backs) will shine behind an outmuscled beaten pack.

Unfortunaley some posters can pinpoint the problems but will never put forward any solutions.

You must watch a very different game to me and others including some very knowledgable professional players who think he is a very good player.
With regards not always been as effective against St Helens etc, thats probably because the pack he has been playing behind has often come of second best against many of the top teams this season.
If you've ever played a game yourself in the backs then you would know that no matter how good you are, you usualy find it very tough to make your mark and stamp your authority if the pack in front of you is been rolled over.
