Must have changed his mind as we have taken your starting back row.

Apart from Evalds they can all bugger off for me. Been poop all season.

I don't think we can underestimate what Sheens is trying to do with the playing side of things. He comes from an environment where 'player power' rarely happens. In the NRL players come and go and it's part of the game and system. He's obviously identified a problem at Salford in this regard and is quite happy to let go of players that he sees as the wrong type of people for the Club. I for one trust his judgement. I think the side you'll see next season will have a distinctly different look and feel to this one, and I think we may see some progress in our consistency. I'm not overly fussed about big names either. What I want next year is for Salford to show stability on and off the field. No dramas. Less bad press. More quiet progress.

As for the comings and goings, like 'northmanchesterdevil' said, apart from Evalds, I wont be shedding too many tears about many others if they go.

Butcher, any idea whats happening with the'Rangi' situation mate?

Re: Next Season Recruits : Fri Sep 11, 2015 10:31 am  

For me losing the following would be a bad thing.

Evalds, Griffin (all 3 for me), Sa'u, Johnson (for his pace not a fan of the man himself), MCB (I still think he has much more potential than he realises), BJB (a full injury free season would have seen him score a hatfull), Hood, Patterson and Krasniqi.

Chase is an enigma, brilliant but prone to brain farts, I think that Sheens will be very aware of what he brings to the team going forward on match days but also very aware of the issues that follow him away from the field. I would still go to Hull and ask for a straight swap for Taylor but doubt it's a starter as he wants to move to Hull for family reasons.

Perhaps you mean overestimate ?

Can't disagree with that, I would however add "and Taylor" if he wasn't off to Hull

A name not mentioned but I'd see if Justin Hodges wanted 1 season in SL, watching him for the Broncos and he is the type of calming lead by example player who would be a tremendous signing for next year.

If Sheens is staying for me that would be an incredible combination to bring solidity when there is obviously going to be a great many new signings.

Blake ayshford signs for NZ warriors. That's one off the list.
