correct me if i'm wrong but they did go to sign dobson, surely if the offer was right he would have finished the season in the nrl and started here this season.

Consider yourself corrected.

Yep. Your wrong. He was one of a number of options we went to persue. However Rovers became aware of his availability and wanted him straight away. We couldn't match the Rovers offer and remain within the salary cap, so he went to Rovers. Its really not that difficult.

Even though Dykes was on similar wedge? (including the tax dodge payments)

having seen him week in week out, the kid is class and i can't belive he struggled to get in the side at canberra.

Maybe because they had Todd Carney infront of him who is twice the player Dobson is!

As we were still paying Dykes I really dont see what your random point has to do with anything?

thorman was poor,
but he is a stand off not a scrum half,
so who's fault is that?,

And let his work permit run out whilst not getting a game at Canberra you mean? That was the key reason for the timing of his move IIRC.

Yes we need a class scrum half, but if we break the wage structure it then creates other problems with the players who feel they should be earning the same.

So what?

If hes a World class scrum half he needs a wage that he deserves if the others dont like it they should play alot lot lot lot F^&%$ing better because on todays performance they don't deserve Nothing
