Love to see Dobson back at Wigan.

Tomkins at 6 and Dobson at 7. His kicking, passing, quick runs and organisation is just what we need.

He's still a young man but now has enough experience to lead, just as he is at KR.

Argeed, espeshially his kicking is needed. With Smith and Tommy our long kicking game has not been up to strach.

IMO Dobson's kicking game is better than Barrett's.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

That is a bold statement but thinking about it, its true. I would take Dobson on a long term contract at Wigan, he is someone who will only get better, he is already a leader at 22, what will he be like when he is 28.

Dobson is tied down at Hull KR though.

I agree we need someone of Dobson's caliber and I think Matt Orford would fit the bill well. He's got a great kicking game (not a bad goal kicker as well) he's a great organiser and passer of the ball. He's got plenty of experience and leadership which is something this team is lacking since the departure of Trent Barrett.

The combined youth and experience of Sam Tomkins and Matt Orford could be something really special with Thomas Leuluai moving to hooker.

Eventhough he's off contract its more than likely he'll get a new one

They would be stupid to let him go, presuming he still wants to play for them of course

He's a class act and a leader.

A partnership of him and Sam Tomkins would be a dream combo.

He didn't break into the first grade until his was 21, so should have a few more seasons in him.
