LEEDS, Warrington, St Helens and Wigan are on red alert now that Kangaroos starlet Daly Cherry-Evans is refusing to sign a new contract with Manly.

Scrum-half Cherry—Evans, 23, wants to be released from the last 12 months of his deal because of a low salary scale that will see him earn 'only' £84,000 next year.

Before the 2011 Four Nations, Cherry-Evans was approached to play for England via his parental qualification, and the Super League big boys are sure to be interested.

But he would be looking for around £150,000-plus a season.

It has been reported down under,two things. one is that Jamie lyon was touted by saints at the world club challenge game, and he would be interested next year and that saints are trying to work out a financial package to take him.Secondly, on the coaching front at saints, the name of nathen brown for 2013.

Unless sia goes we don't have a qouta spot a d the fact he's in advanced talks suggests that's not going to happen.

I was chatting to josh perry before the Catalan game at Langtree park and he'd spoke to Lyon as he was over for the WCC and josh said he'd be interested in coming for 2014 season when he's off contract.

I've got sneaky feeling brown will be at saints next year.

i'd be very happy with that, he's done amazing things with Hudds. With the resources availiable at Saints we could be back where we belong in no time

What different resources? I'm sure they spend on salary cap the same as St Helens? Recruitment might be better but that won't happen over a season?

Wilkin and Foster high profile????
