I'd rather have Dobson, who is coming to the peak of his career than Long, who is coming to the end of his.

It would be a sad state of affairs if the best scrum half in SL was a guy who was a fringe player in one of the NRL's weaker sides.

Well, it appears that this is the case.

It's not where you're from, it's where you're at.

To be fair, at the time Canberra had two quality, quality halves.
It doesnt say much about their recruitment/retention when they want Monaghan back and let Dobson go either.
