| You know I like rumours!
Saints to offload Pryce and sign Lockyer? Even I wouldnt go that far!
I think Bradford or Wigan are the more likely desinations if he has agreed terms with someone.

He'll be off to the pies. He's old injury prone and commands a massive salary where else would he go....?

| If we were to get Lockyer, Pryce shouldn't be sold. He could play centre, considering we haven't a natural for the left side.

Gilmour will be the centre for this year.
People need to start dealing with that.

If we did get Lockyer which I very much doubt we would I'd move Pryce to Loose Forward not centre . Great runner of the ball and good hands

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

He's younger than Long and Cunningham, and only just older than Gidley.
He's a champion player and any club who can afford him should be looking to sign him on a one or two year contract.
He is class, still one of the worlds best players and would be a huge draw in Superleague.

I would much rather keep Leon to be perfectly honest. Lockyer is quality, but why sign someone with no desire on a massive salary when we already have the best no.6 in the country?

| No team in superleague could say no to lockyer, regardless of his undoubted abilities, it would be a massive marketing coup, and increase attendances and shirt sales more than enough to cover his costs. I do believe we may be one of the bigger clubs with room under salary cap after the off season clearout. Dont know where we stand on quota though?

| No thanks.
Too old and whats the point of having him for a year or 2 when we already have Pryce.
Only a mickey mouse club like wigan would dream of signing Lockyer and restricting the chances of their up and comming superstar, Sam Tomkins. Even the signing of Lockyer would not make WIgan title challengers so what would the point be? I will tell you why, because it will appease their clueless fans for another couple of seasons.

| I would sign Lockyer and play him at fullback.
Wellens could then go loose forward
Lockyers pace and vision in any SL team would be a massive boost.
If Wigan signed him they would IMO become a real threat for the title.
Only a fool wouldnt want to sign one of the best players in the history of the game.
He would rip SL teams to shreds.

So look at Saints with Long, Cunningham over 32, Gidley over 31 and Gilmour already over 30.
This year Meli, Puletua will reach 30 years of age with Wellens, Cayless, Fa'asavalu and Flannery not far behind.
Not one of those players is in the same class as Lockyer. I hope he comes to Superleague regardless of who he signs for as he is still one of the best players in the world.
I don't recall all this age thing when Menzies signed for Bradford.
I honestly believe it would be great signing for the GAME, but your agenda is quite obviously different to mine.

He's undoubtedly a quality player, but can you not grasp the obvious negative that anyone signing him would represent? He is 30+ and he is not looking for a new challenge, he is looking for a pension boosting pay day before his retirement. He won't be busting a gut for anyone, like most of these NRL 'superstars' that come over.
