Thanks chief. It does have 12 retweets, so I wouldn't want [uall[/u the credit.

Are you touting to be his new agent Mrs B? You would be more welcome in East Hull than some others.

No, but I could be RLfans Newshound only 3 days early. At some point in the next 20 years Dobson may leave and I'll be able to reference this exclusive.



As for Travis "far superior to Blake Green" Burns, his girth is most disappointing and frankly inadequate after Moobs Clinton. More timber please.

I was thinking about all our great half-back signings this afternoon and when you put each one into context, I'd have to say Paul Cooke was the most important signing of them all because had we not have signed him, then we would have been relegated, never to play top-flight rugby league ever again.



Paul Cooke is the biggest on the field influence why Hull Kingston Rovers is a top-flight rugby league club today and for this, he will always be a legend in my eyes...







If FC genuinely wanted to replace the void that has never been filled since Cooke left them to come to us, they should accept they were in the wrong and pay Doncaster a fee to try to get him back because he's only 31 and still has a good few years left in him I think.

Do you really think they wud do that zod and I don't think cookie is good enuf for SL now he seems to be happy and sorted his self out why wud he go back there

I feel it is imperative that I respond, but i'm not sure what I'm to glean from this non story.

He was Championship One player of the year last season and could get back in to shape with some full-time training Ginge.



He could still do a job in super league I think.



But FC won't admit they were in the wrong and would rather persevere with players like Richard Horne who is no where as good as Cooke.

Just be grateful I've mixed it up a bit. Only so many times Rovers HB pairing can be declared as in the top 3 in SL. We know.

He could, but very unlikely he'd want to IMO.

:k57neplq



Wang the chum out there, bound to get bites from that.



As a serious point, I really would dispute the fact that Cooke saved us that season, I think the turning point was winning in France on Bastille Day 2007 and for that, we have to thank Stanley Gene.







Of course he doesn't.

Think he's maybe been out for too long u know and his knee is knackered I think

As an aside to my terrible quoting, Hull KR can't claim to have anything better than the tenth best half back pairing in this division this season at the moment.



We've got promise.



Dobson is undoubtedly quality and the fact we've got a left handed and a right handed player should add to our options because we've been awfully one dimensional for a long time, even when we had Green (who is a hugely underrated player that is unsurprisingly going well at The Pies), I actually think that in the short term Burns's greatest asset will be his defence. We've had huge problems down that channel for a very long time, having said that, I think Liam Salter's reading of a situation also is a factor here. Good to see him score on Sunday, his defence could be more important than his go forward.

He's finished.



Was arguably finished when he left Hull, probably before that. Some players/participants in sports don't realise their potential.

That was the best bit, in all honesty. I like Blake Green too, proper grown-up player. When you think about Dobson, is he wearing his gumshield? I never think of him without it.

He shud have finished his career at hull wasnt the Same for us was he however was and still am a fan of cookie

Blake green is very cute miss not seeing him in morrisons around the freezer isles

saw dobbo other day thought he'd have had a posher car than he has unless his lass has got the posh one

Indeed. Minus Cooke that awesome evening too.

Stats wise we won 5 with Cooke and 5 without that season, but all with James Webster - who outranks all recent half back signings, in terms of historical significance.

Is that ex great britain player Richard Horne or ex GB player Paul Cooke your talking about ? Oh wait a minute ............

Yes the same Horne who hasn't done a thing since Cooke left.

Hows cooke got on since he left ?

But he had a big say in us finishing 4th the one season, he was decent IMO.

I agree with u but a lot of the FC fans made it hard for him because of how he did it thats why he wasnt the same for us but still vey good defo

For all FC's effort and commitment (as well superb discipline conceding only 2 penalties) last night, they were still embarrassingly clueless in attack.



There is an easy way they can rectify this problem.



All they have to do is admit they were wrong and say sorry to Paul Cooke by way of something like a facebook page saying something like "Cookie we are sorry" and then once the bridges have been mended, Adam Pearson can agree a fee with Doncaster to get him.



He did wonders with a workman like team before and there's every chance he could do it again. Saints are now looking for a top seven next season so FC's options really are becoming more and more limited which is why they have to strike now to get Cooke.



Would FC be prepared to swallow their pride and say sorry though? - I seriously doubt it.

Give it up Zod. It wont happen. If you're on a wind up then your on the wrong board.

@HDMsport: #HullKR coach Craig Sandercock says that both Michael Dobson and Travis Burns could miss Sunday's clash with Castleford.





I've cursed them, it's all my fault







There's no way either will play in the derby now, we'll lose now
