But Salford don't have a money bags owner and it's often said they struggle financially, so probably had no choice.

Looks like Saints and Wigan are fixing up their respective weaknesses.

Sure am glad ours are all sorted and nothing to worry about,otherwise it might be worrying

It's fine Gary will let the cat out of the bag soon, only problem is he can't find the cat.

Must be time to have a holi...I mean cat finding mission to Australia

Nicholson and O`Donnell along with Gannon makes for a decent long term option.
I`d be happy with him and Sutton and go big for Lewis and a keep Austin.
Back that up with a pacy FB and possibly a centre for the season after.

Is the Manager managing out all the players he doesn't see in his plans? Leeming Edwards Tindall Broadbent Hall Walters Possibly Bentley Austin Sezer Fusitua Tetevano dunno? Some one has some kinda plan?

Quite disruptive keeping a player who doesn't want to be at a club though, regardless of money.

It does feel very much like we're struggling to get anyone of the required position and quality over the line. Could all be perception though...

Are there any tough-tackling backrow forwards out there?

Was quite surprised non of the assembled reporters asked specific questions regarding Levi or Austin at yesterday's presser. I know they probably wouldn't have the got the answer they wanted, but would have been legitimate enquiries.

Think they've given up trying. 'Recruitment and retention is an on going process...'

Deffo feels that way, i agree. Lets hope the gut feeling is wrong.
