Read quite a few articles recently stating that Hardaker is still available so be interesting to see if he has indeed signed for us or whether there has been a rethink with Cartwright now being the Head Coach.
Surprised no one has picked up Leutele yet, think he’d be a very good option for us.
Things do seem to have changed a little in terms of recruitment since Cartwright signed on as Coach.
I’m looking forward to seeing how it all pans out and how we are up come the start of preseason.
Good post I wish some on here would give our recruitment a chance. Adam does tend to over hype stuff but his comments do seem positive and are linked to our new coaches day to day involvement in what is happening and what he wants. these are cartwright's signings not Clarkys Adams or anyone elses. Salford have proved that it's not necessarily the big money signings that make for a good team. Cartwright is getting his own men and players he knows and that has to be a plus particularly because he is a very well respected operator in the NRL and has tons of experience at the business end of what players are like 'on the ground' their skills and application etc. we have to trust that and his judgement.
No doubt unless we have won the challenge cup next year at this time some will want him out but for now I think after what has gone before and indeed what is happening now this season its pretty exciting to have something to hope for and something that is based on a new and respected coach building what he wants and getting rid of what he doesn't.
I'll be as always happier when the investment is settled but for now everyone at the club I speak to says that Myler is fair but ruthless when he needs to be that too has to be a plus, particularly when he is in day to day contact with our new coach and trying to sign the players he wants. Lets wait and see what happens.
