6 and 7 : Tue Mar 31, 2009 12:24 am  

Just on the super league site and notice who the top two are for assists. Just wondering would these two have done a better job for us this season than the 6 and 7 we currently have? http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... 09&hp2=580

As a combo yes, but I think Lulu trumps Orr, and we were never going to be able to keep Dobson

Dobson is class and such a shame our salary cap was fooked when we had him here. Orr never did much at the JJB for me.

Interesting to note that Warrington fans and some sections of our supporters are very critical of Martin Gleeson and yet he has more try assists to his name than any of our players.

You are all looking at Dobson for his attacking play.

Look at his errors and missed tackles, he's as bad if not worse than Smith.

It was the main reason why I didn't want him back at Wigan.

Even so, his game is far superior than Smith. Currently you cannot compare the players.

Dobson is a great scrum half, a creative one at that.

He can also lead a team round the field, taking the right options in different areas of the pitch - something we are severely lacking right now.

I dsagree.

He couldn't hold his place down in Australia, he's IMO nothing more than an average scrum half, who is poor defensively and is no better than Smith except that he is a good goalkicker.

Maybe a lot of people miss these statistics because his kicking game is that good that the mistakes occur at the 'right' end of the field.

There is no question in my mind that Dobson offers a significant territorial advantage to any team in which he features.

But it's ridiculous continually discussing him, he's contracted at Hull.

For what reason is it ridiculous? I simply asked if he would have done a better job than our current 7. No one mentioned signing him.
