Exactly. He'll leave a very big hole that will be difficult to fill. That's why we need to make hay this season whilst we have the attacking threat of Sia, Manu & Masoe in our ranks - we need to do the double.

I personally think Brown is using Sia wrong for us. He's being used too much as a battering ran to make the hard yards, when instead we should be using his devastating running strength a little further wide where he has a tad more space to operate in.

It seems strange to me that brown announced he's going, then sia comes out and says no decision has been made, you'd of thought brown would only have said something if it's all sorted ...

I hope he sees out his contract, Flanaghan Wilkin et al are good, but lack X factor that we need. Anthony Watmough, and he can bring his mate Jamie with him

I agree! Sia should be used out wide and same with Manu. None have got good ball this year.

Sam Thaiday will do for year or two

Greenwood could be a devastating runner out wide as well. He makes breaks for a young Backrow and runs great lines (hate using great lines but he does).

www.bbc.com/sport/0/rugby-league/27002529 Based on current form I wouldnt be looking to retain Manu past this season. If both go I think 1 quality external replacement would be needed

Devestated! nearly if not impossible to replace.

Stay Sia, Stay!!

Sia is gonna a huge loss and really hard to replace!

IMO he's been our best overseas signing simply because he consistently puts in top performances week in week out.

He is also a great bloke and clearly loves the club and It will have been a hard decision for him to leave.

I think josh Jones is moulding into a similar type player to what Sia is but obviously at the mo isn't as effective but that will come.

Maybe we use the salary cap and quota space to get a top class centre (if any available)

Dale Ferguson will probably be looking for a new club next season once Bradford are relegated...

Dale who???

Get a big banner made.

We love you Sia
DONT LEAVE US

would be the biggest loss for saints and I don't think we could bring anyone to fill the void.

I'm absolutely gutted about this news.

We should have some sort of please stay Sia chant going very very loud during the warm up on good friday.

I reckon Josh will fill that role next season, he just needs to have a shave and grow bushy hair.

This is terrible news, realistically we could never replace him with a player of similar quality on current form.

Devastating news if true. He has been one of the go-to players for in recent times and never seems to give anything less than 100%.

I agree with people that say JJ is being molded for that role, i think he will be a great replacement but that means we now (once again) have to go after a top centre or try our hand with Percival. This is a big chance for Flanagan and Greenwood to make their cases for the other 2nd row spot when Manu goes too.
