"If the right opportunity doesn't come around for Michael I would hope we can tie him up sooner rather than later on a longer-term deal," he said."

So what if the right opportunity does come around?

Us as well....

If it comes around then so be it I'm pretty confident he will stay, I don't have gut feelings very often but when I do they're normally right, I said we would beat hull we did I said I must get up at 6 every morning and I do he will go when he is ready and I think he has unfinished business here

Dobson has tried (and failed) twice to make an impact in the NRL however he is one of the best within the Super League and gets the plaudits and no doubt the pay for that.

This team is built around him and he must have had a large choice in to which stand off we should go out and sign. He probably would love a crack at the NRL but he is still very young and still gets found out a fair bit over here.

Taking any Rovers tinted specs off Dobson would be best spending a further few years here improving at a good standard before returning possibly to one of the new NRL clubs and trying to make a name for himself there.

As for Morgan leaving, I just couldn't see it unless it was to take charge of an NRL club. Morgan doesn't strike me as the kind of person to take a step down and an assistants role I doubt he would take up even if the long term benefits are greater. He has the chance at Rovers to really push on for honours and once you've won something over here I am sure he'd find it much easier to get a head coach job over in Aus/NZ.

I don't agree there nick, he's at the right age now if he stays at hkr he may miss his chance to sign for a good NRL club.

Think ur spot on with that assessment nick that's my thoughts exactly, Dobbo apart from injury has not been back to his best yet this season if anything green has shone more but I think couple more years at kr he will be there or there abouts,and I think it's great news bout hudgell staying on.

What u mean like when fitzhenry went back to west tigers at what age.......

Not sure on this one, big thing is whether he wants to go back to aus for family reasons as well as playing ones. His stock isn't at its highest right this moment, his injury and rovers dip in form have probably lowered his profile a bit. He hasn;t had the call for the exiles which again will have been a bit of a knock back.
I'm certain he'll see out his extra year, whether he then pens a further term is purely dependant on how much of a risk he's prepared to take to try and prove himself in a comp he hasn;t fitted into that well before.

Someone who knows NRL better than me maybe able to answer this, would he be likely to have to take a pay cut to go back to NRL?

Yep that's the same, he went back to be a utility player and had a massive amount of NRL experience.

Dobson could have the chance to be a starting half back to prove himself and earn a big deal.
