Dream ? What the hell are you talking about ?

Not one person in this thread have said they would take Dobson! And neither would i! His a decent player but we have a YOUTH policy at Saints with some very good half backs itching for a regular spot.

You can stick your no Mark NRL Aussie up your back passage pal.

You should play them then, how long was Soliola in your youth team for?

Dobson is better then any 7 currently at St Helens(including Long) imo and would be a great signing for you.

He's probably the best 7 in superleague at the moment so why you wouldn't want him is a mystery to me

I'd be totally gutted if you got him.

1. We bed our youngsters in the team, with the view that when our senior players retire. We replace them with good talent.

Long out = Eastmond or Wheeler in.

KC out - Scott Moore in

Tom Armstrong
Jonny Lomax
Chris Dean
Kyle Eastmond
Gary Wheeler
Matty Ashurst
Jake Emmit
Chris Frodsham
Andrew Dixon

Each one of these youngsters have played this year for Saints. Thats 9 St Helens juniors. Imagine if every other team replaced there Lovergroves and Stanley Genes with good young British talent. GB might win something.

2. Soliola is a international centre at the age of 22. What a great signing for not only Saints but Super League.

3. You have just confirmed you no jack sh*t about RL.


Jeez what is with these Hull KR fans ? There was a time i rooted for them to get into SL and believed there bitter rivals FC where the overated and most chaviest team in SL history. Big apology to all FC fans !!

Who says he is rubbish ?

Sydney is a joker and a funny one at that. Dobson is a good player, however we have good talent at Saints who need a chance. Can you imagine Wigan getting rid of Tomkins for Dobson ?

I think dobson is good player but not sure I'd like him at saints. He played really well for wigan when he was there.

I don't buy into all this don't sign players because we got a youth policy.

The is nothing more I'd love than to see wheeler and eastmond are half backs and Moore at hooker and so on but teams still need to sign players because no team can produce a full team from there youth team.

When top class players are up for grabs like thurston we should be in for them.

Sir mac should do what's best for the team.

I agree.

The FACT is St Helens have a great bunch of half back talent. Thats why we dont need to sign anyone.

We DONT have any great young centres in our youth team. Thats why we have signed a world class overseas import.

FFS it's not rocket science. Is Kyle Eastmond or Wheeler good enough to start every game ? We dont know! Have they got the talent to do so ? They certainly have!
