I think he's referring to the fact you have Tangata in second row and not Tanginoa.

Ah I see, I'll alter that.

Which is what we will be getting imo with Green and Tangata. Remember we still don't have any money so we need to recruit on potential not reputation ad why not its worked so far.

I've no idea how this new stand is being paid for but if it's going to be self-funded then things will only get tighter.

Assuming rumour etc come true and we are hoping to sign pitts tangata and green the real priority left is someone who can cover half back and hooker and is worth a place in the 17 regularly . I done think the 3rd choice hooker from salford is that person. We need real quality in that position and I don't know who is available. The guy from fev was mentioned a while back Cameron somebody? An aussie? Not seen enough if him to know if he can do the job but I believe he was their leading try scorer.

I'm assuming we have someone lined up. I wonder if the coaching staff rate Baily as ready for SL at least as back up. I know he's only 18 but sometimes coaches go with youth if they rate them high enough, in fact the Aussies do it all the time. I don't know enough about him to say he's ready but a three-year deal suggests somebody rates him.

If so this will show the benefits of the reserve league where he can be made ready rather than wandering around for years just training, just a thought. There will certainly be far more chances for young players to impress next season.

I've had a look on that site that we can't link and he looks very good, I know it's the highlights and it Academy level but he's big, strong, quick and has all the moves.

I'm sure one of those players brandidhec about last week was a half back who could play hooker, cant remember his name though without trawling back through all the comments etc

Also, is there something in the fact that on the same day that came out, Wakefield shared a video clip from 2017, with Sam Williams in a starring role. Doubt he would come back but you never know

Thought Randel was playing a lot better than Wood at back end of season , so to bring some one in to play as second choice to Wood is a backward step .

Josh Wood got Salfords Young Player of the Year 2018 and their Players Player 2018 but has been injured part of this season.

Just read back on the report of the 13 NRL players offered out.

Ryley Jacks was the half who could play hooker, the other halves were Williams, Reynolds and Mason Lino

A little closer to home. I read earlier that Dec Pattom was being released by Warrington
