If Raglan and Flinders are worth two years Dawson certainly is. He is at his peak years.

Totally agree. Dawson adds something that most in our midfield don't - work rate and stamina. I'll be more annoyed if we lose Daws than Nige. Although I'll be most annoyed if we end up replacing Nige with Tillson!!
Don't see why Tillson is getting stick. He came in and did a job nobody else we had could do. I don't he'd be a terrible signing. I don't see him coming back, though.
Anyway, I assume Daws could have whatever he wanted in terms of length if he didn't keep getting injured. Hopefully we can agree that he has a 2 year contract unless unavailable for more than 40% of the first season, or something like that, at which point renegotiations can be held next summer.

I would be very content to give Dawson a 2 year contract. A driving force in the team & would be very difficult to replace with that experience. Too much of a risk to lose him.
Agree.Robin wrote:The challenge with Dawson is his injury record and his inconsistency, in two years here he’s had two really good spells lasting 4-6 weeks each flanked by injuries and loss of form (albeit he had a falling out with GJ).
The way he plays he needs to be really "up for it".
Applies to many players perhaps with Ryan Broom being another example- had a great first half of season followed by a mediocre second half.
