| Quote: braytontiger "shenton is a defencive centre and no more,the very fact that we have barely used him has a strike centre over the past 5-6 seasons means their must be very little confidence in his attacking play.'" but he scored 16 tries last season?

Bridge is, Atkins isn't IMO.

| Bridge is a very decent player, always thought so myself.
Atkins i dont rate, especially in defence.
As for Shenton, he's not world class, he looks a big fish in a small pond at Castleford, if he did come to Saints, it would be interesting to see what wage he was on, as i dont think his ability would command a high salary, however, something tells me he wont come cheap.

He's a better player than Gleeson was when we signed him IMO.

I've been a big fan of Bridge whenever I've ssen him play centre, he seems to be able to make that run to threaten the outside of his marker and has a good step to come back on.
I think I'm a bit negetive on Atkins, I've seen him be pretty gash a couple of time in positional defence and it totally skews my opinion of him.

130k P/A is the rumour, Cas & Wigan told him what he can do when he demanded that.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

If true I'm glad we didn't get him. Certainly not worth that sort of money.

| If people honestly believe Saints will give him 130k p/a then you're seriously deluded. We're not Wigan Warriors.

We won't be paying that much to Gidley let alone Shenton.

| Like previous posters have said it reminds me of a bit like Gleeson when we signed him from Hudds.
Shenton for me has all the potential to be a top class centre.

Seems like his injury wasn't too bad:
"He's going to go for precautionary scans but he saw the specialist yesterday and we're 99% sure it's not serious," said Castleford coach Terry Matterson.
"He definitely won't play at Salford on Sunday and he probably won't play the week after but he could be back the week after that.
"We're really pleased because it didn't look good. Something popped out but it popped back in again. We're due a bit of good luck."

18821_1298880800.jpg [quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that.
[/quote]
Another classic:
[quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban.
Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player.
Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666
0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match".
Therefore ZERO.[/quote]

| True, but it's a very strong rumour from numerous sources and makes perfect sense in terms of our squad.
I'd be surprised if he's not a Saint next year TBH.
