| Quote: Saint Simon "I do too, why? other than we have no confidence in our kids which goes against the chairmans own words on the matter. Saints name comes up when any good player is coming out of contract. We are just used to up contracts, as we are now "cashed up" ![]()
I could understand the club moving to secure a highly-experienced player for one season purely to help smooth the transition of kids like Eastmond. Someone like, say, Stacey Jones, who could also offer a wealth of experience to draw from. That's fine, IMO.
But Myler is still a junior himself and thus isn't likely to want to play second fiddle to anyone. If the club signs Myler it's in essence saying it has no confidence in those players charged replacing Long. Certainly not a 'committment to junior development'.

I think it could maybe be good idea to bring in a old head scrum half for 1 year for 1 year.
That's why we wanted long for 1 year. |

But did you.
Long has stated publically that there was no 1 year offer made formally to him. |

| Quote: St pete "Saints will not pay the money for myler.

Saints have a history of findng money for players when you'd least expect it.
It's only 2 examples and it hasn't happened often but firstly with Newlove and then with Sculthrope they found the cash and suprised everyone.
Especially the Sculthrope deal i remember thinking there was no chance he'd end up at Saints because of the money Wire were after but they found it and will do again for Myler if they really want to.
I think all 3 of Wigan, Wire and Saints will bid for Myler at the end of the season. |

The transfer market was a different beast in those days though, and both of those transfers were funded by selling players - Loughlin, Nickle and Dwyer made up half of the Newlove fee, and we got all of our Sculthorpe money by selling Prescott, Hunte and Booth to Hull. That kind of thing just doesn't happen anymore. I'll be very surprised if we bid for Myler. |

Ooooh I forgot to mention your selling Graham, Roby and Pryce to Wigan for 150k to fund the bid for Myler.
Think you've 'done us' to be fair  |

| Quote: St pete "Saints offerd him a 1 year deal.'"
Big Mac told him he would only be offering him a 1 year deal when they were going to sit down and discuss it at the end of July and that if he wanted longer would have to look elsewhere.
So technically there was no offer (terms or contract) made. |

BRING BACK THE BIFF!:users/saints.gif |

Dobson is a decent player but he's doing well at Hull KR so leave him there so he can help build a side around him on East Hull... I REALLY like Saints' policy of bringing kids through! They've worked fantastically hard to improve the youth set up over the years and the kids are now not just knocking at the door, but 'smashing' straight through it!
I know by experience of watching our great game that not everykid at Saints will come through, but they're not doing too bad so far & they're only babies! I think it's really exciting for Saints & England that these youngsters are coming through!
