I’d agree and tbh Salford have little option but to put what few eggs they have in one basket.

They will need him in every game and will desperately need to avoid injuries because as far as I can see the have a starting 13 and that’s about it.

Salford’s biggest weakness is the lack of a Reserve/Academy team which for me is dire. When my own club has been in this situation most notably 2001, 2010, 2015 it was the emergence of young home grown players that saved the day. Most notable in 2001 with the likes of Ellis and others.

Can’t see where Salford will find those players to fill gaps and play with youthful pride and enthusiasm.

Jeez I’m glad I’m not them but I do wish them well and I do think they have a punchers chance. Wouldn’t want to draw them in the opening rounds because that’s where they will be at their best.

Update

IN: London Broncos (welcome back to SL)
OUT: Widnes Vikings

Castleford Out - Brandon Douglas signed for Doncaster RLFC
Huddersfield In - Reiss Butterworth signed from Bradford Bulls

Marwan paid Jacko's wages?!?! OMG that is brand new information!!!

Hauraki went months ago and we got the better end of the deal by bringing Chamberlain (who has been excellent) and Burke (who has been steady) in.

Burgess missed a fair chunk of the season so won't be a huge miss and will hopefully mean more game time for young props like Dan Murray and Nakubuwei.

Lannon has had a good season and shame to see him go but we have cover in the 2nd row.

Tasi has been a little bit hit and miss and not quite the same player we had first time round. He'll probably be on a fair wage too so hopefully we can find an adequate replacement for less money.

And you're predicting us for the wooden spoon? In other news, the pope is Catholic and Bears relieve themselves in the woods.....

GRADE.. A. CLOWN

This is the same alleged Rhino's fan who thought Keith Galway was still at the club 3 week after retiring and gone back home to Oz

Koucash himself said he’d paid for Hastings

Chris Clarkson, Ben Kavanagh, Danny Tickle, James Donaldson, Brad Clavering, Kieren Moss, Jordan Walne, Liam Salter and Matty Marsh out from Hull KR.

I don’t know many of those but I’d find that a worryingly large clear out by any standards. I assume they can’t all be crap despite what some KR fans will inevitably suggest. So any of them any good?

Half of them are bit part players so not really surprising out of them I’d of kept Donaldson and Kavanagh

Hull FC have signed Leigh Centurions winger Matty Dawson-Jones and utility forward Jordan Thompson on two-year deals.

Bradford have signed Jy Hitchcox from Cas.

Toronto Wolfpack have signed Jon Wilkin from
St Helens

Are Hull skint?
