Didn't Michael Dobson play for Wigan?

Yes , but he will never play for Hull FC !

Hi Hull FC fans.

NZ Warriors fan here :

Just to clarify a few points.

Yes Tommy's Girl is D Gouldings sister , fueling speculation that she is home sick.

No Tommy is not being kept out of the Warriors run on side by the form of Johnson and Townsend.

It is all about the groin injury. As it turns out the Dr's had missed a small hernia , Tommy had an op yesterday or the day before....projected return to fitness one month.

So he had two injuries to the area. The original Injury reportedly looks ok with scans.

Tommy was rushed back into the starting line up ( he is rated here as one of our most important players ) he played well from the bench as an extra forward ( we have an eighty minute hooker Nathan Friend ) after getting game minutes he resumed his spot at five eight for us.

The long term plan was meant to be this : Let Nathan Friends contract finish this year.....play TL and our young Hooker Havili as a pair next season.

Speculation that the recent extension for 2015 given to Nathan Friend last week has fueled the TL moving on rumor somewhat.

Leuluai arrived back to the Warriors where it all started for him many moons ago.....with fan opinion divided.

Were we going to see the same raw kid that left us ? or is this guy going to be the Wigan player he became there ?

After round six last year the majority of Fans were calling for TL's head.

By round 26 TL was voted Fans favorite player.

He's a champion....horrible kicking game as you all know....but most of us are hoping he comes back fit for us soon....because he will boost our chances this season significantly.

Thanks for that!

Great to get an update from the other side of the world

If Salford sign Dobson, we should make a big money for Sneyd, just the type of halfback we need.

Quote ="Aldy"If The Manchester Evening News is to be believed Micheal Dobson on his way to Salford next season www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/ ... an-7161101'" How many halfbacks does Koucash want ? My good source told me last night. Taylor done deal. Aussie forward done deal. Offers on 3 halfbacks , expect to get 2 of them. Radford has full backing of Pearson. Big clear out at the end of season. Club going for smaller squad with more quality. Youngsters to plug the gaps.

I know it's only the sun and dave Parker but it says this morning we've joined the race for Dobson . Can't see him coming to us mind , not when you see who else is linked with him .

I remember Pearson making that claim (or very similar) once before!!

Me too.

Can't see Dobson coming and tbh I don't want him.

I am not sure on Dobson, he has lived here in Hull before and his family would be settled.

Who knows.

Aren't they always.

This made me chuckle.

What don't you like about Dobson?

When you've spent the last 5/6 years dispising someone its hard to turn it off. He always typified everything I hate about rovers.

It would be like Rovers signing Yeaman I guess.

Fair enough. I never got as far as despising him. I was more envious than anything else.

Didn't think he'd been that bad tbh.

Cockayne (especially), Newton, Fox, Welham plus more perhaps.

But not Dobson.

That's what everybody said about G Ellis when we joined the race to sign him. We just need to pay top dollar for a top half back instead of the cheap option and only then will we get our man.

That is the only time I remember we're we have beat other top teams to sign someone in a long time , and the first time since Pearson as been here despite all the bull he's spouted of about signings and what force he"ll turn us into . To back up his words he needs to be doing it more often .

Your forgetting Colborn.

On the basis this forum is Dave Parkers best source of information, I'd take that with a large bucket load of salticon_wink.gif

The Mole ‏@RLW_Mole 1m
For those who have been asking - Michael Dobson off to @SalfordDevils as Moley wrote 2 weeks ago. @StHelensRLFC outside hope of getting him

Know his stuff Moley, we should be keeping an eye on the Sneyd situation.

Or would anyone take Chase?

Tim smith it is then for us , just what we need to try and sneak 8th spot for the next few seasons !

I totally agree, we need more action then just words. I know AP has spent a lot of money on the club but it's about time he puts his money where is mouth is and gets us a team to be the envy of Superleague. That's the only way you will get the crowds back and put bums on seats.
