generally most plays will go through the half back, dobson normally has room on the ball and is far from predictable, good show and go, good kicking and passing game!

stan, makka and fozzard have gone, stan and makka never had much game time last year and if the clinton deal is as done as rumour suggest's, then he will replace foz. so as for been weaker? no!

cookie? not set the world alight scince his arrival, but worth every penny for the derby games



i think he will have a big season as a previous poster suggested, playing for a contract / new club!

I think we will not and i meen we will not miss cookie let him go now all he thinks about is the next beer

goodbye mr cook

Damn got all excited then, read the title thinking first word only had one O

Cooke will be dificult to replace & there are not many non quota number sixes around so we will have to (A) promote a younger player ( Ianson ?),(B) give someone at the club the position (Murrel ?), (C) buy an expensive Aussie. My option is B, but thats why the coach gets paid he will have to ballance the squad as well as the books. It happens all the time. I expect Dobson would be off to Australia if a NRL club wanted him, it makes the quota/salary cap interesting.

you were right first time hutch

I thought he had left already seeing as it is more than 6 months since a HFC fan started a thread about him going!

Think you'd be more excited if the last O was replaced by a C and dropped the E.

I'd have thought if he went to wakefield it would be to reunite brough/cooke/kear?

Well it said in the other story that a swap deal had been agreed, but the only stumbling block was Cookes wages.

the only reason for a swap would be cost cutting ! brough ,another scrum half is that what is needed ? you cant play behind a beaten pack and if they dont get a couple of forwards in thats what cooke and dobson will be doing this season

I heard he was offered to the Crusaders but he wouldnt go
