You could ask Wigan for the loan of Sam Powell the England academy scrum half. He is a very good organiser, with a great kicking and passing game and a superb defender. He perhaps lacks a yard of pace, but that never stopped the likes of Goulding and Deacon.

It could be a good move for both player and clubs.

No thanks.

If we were going to use this opportunity to develop a young player, surely we would rather develop our own than somebody elses?

Considering you are from St.Helens what is your problem with the club.

Every time Saints are in the headlines for the wrong reasons you are on here faster than Usain Bolt.

I don't think that's the way the RFL see it.

Doesn't matter how the RFL see it if Dobson has an agreement with Hull KR to not sign for anyone else whilst he is de-registered.

Think Harris/Leeds/Bulls; no playing contract with a RL team, but also not a free agent (as Bulls found out). Remember, the RFL sanctioned that signing, it didn't make it legal.

Sorry if people do not like the Truth! and no I was never sacked by the Club.

I think currently the club is going through a time of change and fans have to accept it, have the club dealt with the Eastmond situation then it is No! and that is my opinion, same as the club does not handle its PR well.

The sooner Eastmond has gone the better, and time to push Graham to make his decision, then use this season to shape your young players and ensure recruitment for next season is done early.

I agree the club is going through a transitional period,no denying this but you seem to take pleasure in this,why.

Its not his fault, he seems to suffer from a bad case of dickus headus trollus. It is a genetic disease and unfortunately some people suffer with it from birth. As of yet there's no cure, but who knows, there's still time, jaybs.

I just don't get it though.

How can a person who comes from St.Helens have a go at their home town team,it really baffles me.

Don't get me wrong I know some people from this area who support Wigan and Warrington but I don't get it.

It's not going to happen, but he's the type of player that could turn us from challengers to champions. A class, class player.
