Todd Carney to Salford. Confirmed.

So Which one of Dobson, Carney and Lui misses out on the match day 17?

No one needs to miss out. Tigers have chase, Gale and Roberts - it works fine for us. You just put one on the bench and spell the L/F role.

Given their track records, it's a stretch to imagine they would all be fit at the same time too often.

Lui looks big enough to play a bit of 13? Not sure on his defence though.

I thought Todd Carney wanted to go back to Aus?

He did but they won't have him back

I watched a documentary recently about an American high school that takes on players that no one wants and moulds them into a team, a team that went unbeaten for nearly 2 years. They also put them back on the straight and narrow so much that the Big D1 college like Auburn and Alabama would sign them, giving them a path way to the NFL. A bit like Salford in that Salford also sign players that no one else wants. I guess that's where the similarity ends

We will have to see what immigration say about that as they would not let him have a work permit when he signed for the Giants five years ago.

But Roberts has the ability to play at full back or hooker. Chase is also on a contract that reflects the fact he was, and still is, a risk. We also don't know it will work fine as Roberts, Chase and Gale are yet to all play in the same game!
The three at Salford are out and out halves and I expect they will all be on good contracts.
Just to think - Salford could have a half back pairing of Sneyd and Fages if they had handled their promising players with a little more consideration.

As a saints fan, fages really is nothing special and a million miles away from the class of Sneyd or gale

Half backs sometimes take time to develop to their full potential. I think Fages will grow into a fine half over the next couple of years.

Two convictions since his last visa was turned down. Known to associate with a convicted drug smuggler- Let's see what a state the system is in....

Why do we need a thread about this? Do you work for the BBC or something?

Always fun to see opposition fans making a point to play-down and ridicule a signing by a competing club. When the same people would be out of man size tissues if their club had signed the same player.

Most tribal.
