I can tell you for a fact there is no deal on the table at all for Sam. He`s 4 stone off playing and that wont be easy to shift. On his day you would take him in a breath, what a talent. Pay per play would be a good option though.

Saw Sam Barlow at Halifax Swimming baths and can say he is out of shape. Take a rigorous preseason to get him fit. Needs to stay off the beer with Murrell



In his day for a forward with a good offload game not many better.

Sammut going part time or are you going full time ?

I'd love sammut but cant see it happening.

Wasn't Hooligan the one that 'confirmed' Chisholm last year....??

He were but I think he may be warmer on this one.

Would certainly be a sign of progress on the recruiting front!

fingers crossed!

Another half and a proper fullback who comes into the line, after that our 3/4 strengthened with some pace and offer a threat.

According to Matt Shaw on twitter (who's usually pretty good with transfers) sammut is completely wide of the mark

Hope so, Sammut is bloody awful. Not the player we need.

Who would you suggest (that's potentially available and we can afford)?

From this country someone like Christian Ackroyd, young and talented with potential to develop. Theres a young halfback in Leeds academy with Halifax roots but he's at least 2 years away from been ready to do a job for us but worth keeping an eye on.

Sammut will be 32 at the start of next season, theres got to be better options from the NSW/Queensland Cup... Fev have just signed 2 from there!
