What's the point of bringing a Sammut type player in?
Seymour is far superior.

If we aren't bringing Chase in or someone of similar calibre then stick with what we've got.
And keep the Seymour compo money in AP's pocket until quality becomes available.

Chase is a qulity player but his off field problems do worry me where as with Dobson you wont get any of that. And he is a quality larker who you know wont love around and mess up and leave us in the lurch if that makes sense lol.

had one run in with the law didnt he manu?Chase on the other hand has alot more baggage but yes he would be worth the risk as he is hat good im just saying dobson would be a safer and reliable option and with dobson and holdsworth we would do okay

IMO if we cant get chase, throw the book at Dobson, if not stay with whom we have because with his injury sorted in the off season and one year in the UK under his belt Seymore may well come REALLY good.
no point in spending for the sake of it

I don't see why the club would be readying themselves to end the chase, surely they would just do.

Its obvious the club really want chase as we have been persuing him for what, 2 months? What's come out today sounds like cas are trying to hold the club/pearson to ransom and this is us calling their bluff.

I had heard we were close to signing dobson earlier in the year but time will tell if he's a back up target

Dobson and DJ are way to similar to work imo.

I would take Brough over any of the 3, but like I say I would take Dobbo over Chase as I just feel his kicking game offers more tbh, their try assists are on par and Dobbo is proven in a structured team plus the fact Dobbo is a true professional seals it for me, just my opinion though, I would be happy with any

How are they exactly? By my reckoning it's 1.8 per game versus 1.3, with Chase playing in the team that finished joint bottom. In an extra 10 games Dobson has managed a whopping 6 more assists.

Splitting hairs on that mind you could be right had Chase not got banned for the disgusting cheap hit and suspended by his club for going on the lash it may have been more than splitting hairs, I doubt it though. Also Dobbo can kick and play in a structured team.
