Have you seen Asotasi play this season?
From what I saw of Sims during the WC he is 10x the player Roy is, only time will tell if this rumour is true and if we do get him if he is any good but I do expect bigger things from Sims than Asotasi!!!

| Quote Michael Dobson: "I wanted to come to the NRL while I was still young enough to give it a good crack and Newcastle gave me the best opportunity for that,''
"I had a great time over in England, but five-and-a-half years is a long time away'"
Whats his legacy then.....(just while we wait for koukash to announce dobbo as the best half back in the world)?
A guy not good enough for the NRL(twice), played in a catalan side at the bottom of superleague, then going to Wigan, also at the bottom, eventually helping them fight off relegation, then going to Canberra and getting the odd game while they finished 3rd bottom.
His career at Hull kr - with one season an exception with a 4th placed finish - has seen Hull kr become a mid table side consistently getting heavily beaten in play off games.(A Hull derby the only win).
he'll improve Salford that's a fact but will him and chase be the greatest in superleague?

| I quite like Dobson as a player and I think Biscuit's assessment is a bit unfair, but, I do wonder how he might fit in at Salford given that Chase wants to be the 'go to' half and Sneyd is on his way back next season as the next big thing

| I wonder if Sneyd is going back at all???
If he is then they have just wasted a portion of their salary cap on Dobson...long may it continue!!

Started his Salford career off at hooker before being moved to the halves.

| Koukash saying when Dobson and Sneyd go back next season they will easily have the best half backs in the competition.

Sure he said the same thing earlier this season.
Underneath all this activity Salford are throwing all sorts of offers at the current set of England U16s to put together their U19s next season, seemingly bottomless pit of cash but I suppose that at least makes more sense long term.

Dont think that matters, he is an established SL half, why would you want to play FB/Hooker when playing so well in the halves?

To be fair, it's not like we swap our pivots about particularly the halves

Everyone knew he was going to Salford. My point was I was only a week out on when it would be announced.

Yeah I thought that when typing but the same can be said of our players. I cant see Myler being happy not playing in the halves when everyone is back from injury.

Sorry Irish' I was 'acting the goat' and that's my point we've been moving folk around a lot apparently due to form/injuries as opposed to some master plan.
Depending upon form and injuries and ignoring the fact that Grix and Monaghan can fill in at hooker/half, as well as everywhere else in Grix's case, what does happen when our first 17 is available? Bridge back at centre (I know RD), or Ratchford at loose to accommodate Myler at 7 firing on all cylinders with O'Brien being told no thanks carry on kicking at Swinton...A great position for us and one that Salford want to emulate next year to move them on as a team.
My thoughts though are that the two camps are different at this time, Dobson has presumably had some assurances and Chase is their marquee signing, so Sneyd will brought back to provide pressure on these two and in addition moved about depending on what's happening at 1 and 9.
If they can pull that off and keep everyone happy then good luck to them

| Sneyd won't just come back and play hooker next season, a new improved contract extension will be announced too.

| I can't fathom how Salford can play Sneyd Dobson Chase and to an extent Locke all together.
Chase really looks the the pear shaped apple.
If I had a team with Chase I think I would mould him into a fb to accommodate his threat coming to into the attack as not to screw structure from the half's.

| A spine of...
1. Kevin Locke
6. Rangi Chase
7. Michael Dobson
9. Marc Sneyd
13. Weller Hauraki
...does look promising though and is much better than the one we started this season with.

It does, they are all under 80 to start with, not like this years experienced lot. Lol
