They've beaten the odds in what they've achieved on the field and credit to Salford there but how can they be a viable club financially when they rely so heavily on supporter donations and selling their assets and are still in trouble.

Really feel for their supporters who may not be great in terms of numbers, but certainly are in the terms of the backing they give their club. This seems to be a yearly occurrence and you wonder how long the other clubs will think it is tenable. On a practical and selfish note I'm not sure we'd have the cap space to land Watkins should he even be amenable to such a move.

None of the teams in the league are financially viable.
Salford's problem is they don't have anyone able to plug the gap.

He’s just wearing a spare playing shirt from last season, they wear these in training sometimes.

5 of Salfords pack used to play for Leeds so it would hardly be a progressive step!

I would be happy to have Callum back but he's on a large salary so I doubt we could afford him.

Sneeeeeyd would have been the better option, were he available and had we not just picked up connor.

Can't we just be optimistic with the cards we have with Croft passing up an Nrl contract in favour of the Rhinos surely we have the best 6 and 7 in the competition.

Looks like Perth will be joining the NRL in 2026 or 2027 after all.

Perth were never in doubt for 2027, NRL wouldn't let that slip away. Considering blease has said he expects a decision from Arthur before Xmas, I suspect he waiting to see what happens with Perth

Be funny if Arthur didn`t get the job at Perth after announcing he was leaving us.
Although I`m sure he would wait for confirmation before handing in his notice.

All joking aside, I think we should be going for Sneyd.
Pay a small fee to Salford to help them out.
He's still got 2-3 decent years left.
We could release Frawley and have an OQ spot for centre / back row.

All depends if Frawley wants to go.
If he does then yes great idea and we have our goalkicker sorted as well.

I rate Sneyed but he will be 34 come the start of the season so probably only 1/ 2 years left in him.Releasing Frawley will be easier said than done plus I think Arthur quite likes him.Not convinced even if this happened we would have enough cap space to sign another quota player.
