The deals already been paid it says so in the article. it's the last year of his contract Saints are paying

With the exception of one or two 'fans' I don't think any Salford fans have said anything unreasonable about his abilities. He's a natural HB that's potentially a diamond, but he needs some more polish before he gets there. You'll soon see what we mean.

Haha was only tongue in cheek mate. Looking forward to seeing him on a regular basis next year.

If I was a Salford fan I would be pretty upset with how their halfbacks have been managed.

Both Sneyd and Fages leaving the club because Salford wanted to spend money on big names. It makes you very concerned when they cannot spot talent under their noses.

However their loss will be our gain. Hopefully Theo can fulfill his potential and be a big player for Saints and France for years to come.

No tinted glasses here mate. It's also sad to see one of our product go at Salford as we don't have the production line as other clubs. However having been wathing Fages for some years now, I fail to believe the hype that a tiny minority of our fans make out to be. He wasn't even the stand out player for the academy when they lost the grand final the other year. The like of Sneyd and Evalds still ahead of him then, then we had Owen, Tyson, Marriot, Davidson. I think the core of that team have just won the title with Oldham.

He not as good as people make out and he may not be as average as some others say, the reality is he'll end up somewhere inbetween. Like I previously mentioned it obviously dissappointing to loose one of out products as a small club we are not doing too bad if we look at what we've lost over the years.

I,m almost sure Salford were assessed and given bottom place for youth development, so I suppose its not surprising young players look elsewhere for there future.

There is no case to lose, the tribunal has been scrapped. Saints have agreed to pay a minimal fee which has been accepted by Salford, it is not a "good fee" by any stretch.

Does this mean Salford thought that they may lose, or is it just a case of getting him out of the club ASAP?

Tweet from MarwanK wishes him all the best and thanks Saints for their professionalism in handling the move.

So Salford have announced it but we haven't. I sincerely hope McManus isn't planning some sort of big unveil tonight for this. We know about it already, so any big screen announcement or on field announcement will just be ridiculous. Fages is a player that some people think has some potential. He's a fringe Salford player, not a big star. If the club tries to make a big deal of this it'll be very cringeworthy. These kind of announcements should be reserved for big stars only.

Be interesting to know the fee, has Marwan been fair, as I feel he would have won the court case if that had been the result.
