Cheap option, should have gone for Dobson

If we'd paid what he asked and what Rovers ended up paying, we would have been over the salary cap.

the board went to aus to buy a racing car and came home with a speedboat! surely crockers money would cover dobsons salery. you have options in the back row and fook all at 7!

Ive said at the start of the season we shouldn't have signed him ,just look at Myler today every time they had the ball he was involved in every set ,Thorman just stayed in the right centre watching what was going on . Thats his defensive position so why doesn't he move around and dictate play like all other scrum halves that play against us .

I suspect they thought he wasn't worth what Rovers were willing to offer and had the chance of Crocker at the same time. Looks like their judgement of what Dobson could offer was wrong.

Back on topic, thorman is rubbish. Always has been, always will. Drop him and play whiting on Friday. At least the kid cares

Not a bad shout about whiting, always gives us something in attack.

Dobson went to you LAST season so counted on LAST seasons salary cap. Crocker is (hopefully) coming THIS season so counts on THIS seasons salary cap. So your point is completely wrong.

correct me if i'm wrong but they did go to sign dobson, surely if the offer was right he would have finished the season in the nrl and started here this season.
