After yet another outstanding performance from Dobson, I think it's only fair that we as Rovers fans pay tribute to the fact that the pair above, with their limited knowledge of rugby league, felt fit to decline the chance to sign Dobson and in doing so giving Rovers the chance to bring the aussie star to Craven Park.

Thank you Kath and James, what a nice gesture, by the way, how's Thorman coming along?

Are you allowed to show that pic?.... I have got three youngsters don't you know... if they access those pics I may be done for exposing minors to grotesques imagery

Whereas you assesed him vigorously and didn't just hear we where interested... right?

Justin is a very clinically thinking man, so I'm told, I doubt for one second he suddenly thought.........hang on FC are going to sign him, I MUST!!!!!!!

I get sick of IDIOTS like you proclaiming crap like this. You didn't sign him and IMO and plenty of other peoples, FC made a BIG mistake. If you had seen him play recently I'm quite convinced you would be of the same opinion, I.e Morgans, that he is a quality 7 and that is why we signed him. Now jog on, I hear there is plenty of belly aching to be done on the FC forum.

I just wondered how our scouting was poor yet yours wasn't, that was all. I agree, he's a decent player, better then what we have by a mile however I hope we can attract someone better than him for next year.

What have they got now that anyone else would want?

Stan & Ollie wouldn't have flown out for his signature if they weren't pretty close to a deal. Things only went pear shaped after he'd met them

Maybe its someone who they haven't got.............yet

Danny Houghton, but he can't get a game unless Berrigan spits his dummy out.

O.k, just for you, I will tell you why your scouting was/is poor and ours isn't. You were close to a deal with Dobson, who has so far, been one of the stand out SH in SL.

You with me so far? O.k.................

You didn't sign him because FC under valued his potential, Morgan didn't. Therefore, in simple terms, our fore thought and scouting was better than yours. And before you go on about salary and him not being worth it.........
he is worth every penny of his *reported* contract.

You should come and see him sometime, he's woth the entrance fee, you could come in your FC shirt and soak up the pitty.

P.s. good luck signing someone better for next year, after last season and this one (on current form) you will have a real job finding it.

I know the club is in such disarray and yet on the back of a losing run of 6 games, you are only 3 points in front.
