Salford are going to need two balls.

Dobson only had a year to run with us and he would have been off-contract for the start of next season and could then have signed for you if he wanted. He didn't have to go to the NRL to engineer a move to Salford (if that is what you are implying), because if that was his intention he could have stayed with us and you would have still got him when he came off-contract. Had his Newcastle experience been a success I find it very unlikely he would have been back in Super League, handshake with the Marwan or not!

Dobbo was a great player and servant to this club and one I wish every success to. I would say that on paper Chase and Dobson should compliment each other well, but as Barham alluded to he played alongside a few good 6's at the club and his success was at times at a detriment to those players qualities - the challenge will be to use Dobbo's organisation skills to enhance Chase's game rather than stunt it.

Not wanting to sound like I'm knocking dobbo but I fail to see how dobbo and chase will work, as someone who saw every game he played for rovers the fact is dobbo can only play on the left side of the field (he's very good there mind) he simply struggles to pass left to right, now maybe the Salford fans can tell me different but I've never seen any evidence that rangi has the self discipline to stick to the right hand side of the field for 80mins, I guess time will tell

You can see why the fans stay away. The new ground is soulless and in a bad location.
For all it's faults, I preferred Salfords old ground.

Why do people put comments on a topic that has nothing to do with the subject?
But while I am on Dobbo and Chase will never ever be a good pairing same as Smith Chase all players named want to be the the conducter they are born leaders, none want to play second fiddle If Harris can get Chase to play off Dobbo and let Dobbo do the leading they will be lethal. If not they will disappear up each other's booty

That's the thing Chase doesn't lead the team around the park like a normal half back, he will set players up and put them through space through riggling his way through gaps and fooling players with the ball, we need a normal no nonsense straight forward half back like dobbo, we missed a player who could take his team around the field and with a good kicking game, Chase is brilliant at what he does its just he can't keep doing the same thing play after play, we need variety and that's mainly why we signed Dobbo.

Welcome to the board. Are you pro or anti Allardyce?
