Oh, you're a joker aren't you? Hilarious.

He didn't do too badly at Bradford, and he completely transformed Crusaders. We've seen his influence at Salford, because we've been a far better team since he took over. But Marwan's a direct kind of guy. If he thinks Brian Noble isn't doing the job, he'll be replaced.



Other people think Smith and Chase complement each other. It remains to be seen, but I suspect Tim Smith will be the player who will lead them around the field.



These twelve signings will be joining the, as yet unspecified, members of the current squad who are being retained. I don't think strength in depth will be a problem. And there may be more signings to come.

Thank you very much

Smith and Chase are nothing alike. You clearly don't watch them.

Smith organises the team and can pass a ball long or short as good as anyone I've seen. He isn't really a runner though he isn't slow. He can't tackle. Good short kicking game average long kicking game
Chase is a runner who picks a pass if it is on. He is an exceptionally evasive runner. He can tackle and has a kicking game though doesn't really use it.

Correct.

Morley will lead with his actions but not a rugby football brain like the others mentioned





Correct. O'Loughlin leader with ball playing ability as demonstrated recently



And if you get the injuries Leeds, Saints, Wigan have had this year then with academy to call upon, you're screwed. Sorry if the truth is painful. And unlike others I do want to see Salford in the top eight with the others knocking 7 bells out each other, more exciting games the better.

Well i respect your opinion but we obviously watch a different game so lets agree to differ.BTW you are underestimating some of our academy players and the other 13 guys who will make the 25 man squad.All will be revealed in 2014.

Ha, I bought it as it was so 'Salford like'. Salford have the most impeccable squad either code of Rugby has ever seen.

Rubbish. Noble has won loads and Smith will lead them around the park well and will allow Chase to play to his strengths. Also, there's plenty of decent players already at the club that will provide more than reasonable depth.

The only thing I can see from the team a couple of posts previous is the lack of a proper hooker. Tommy Lee is reasonable back-up (at a push) but Salford will need a much better dummy-half.

Interesting opinions RhinoNiel, all welcome on our forum, but they are what they are......your opinions. Now you may well be the most knowledgeable Rugby League fan around, or you may not have a clue, either way you are entitled to your opinions, and I for one will consider what you say, but will reserve my judgement (not opinion) until next season. Still happy we are now sparking debate rather than the usual ridicule fans of other clubs have posted here in the past.

While you continue to pay Baileys wage you really are not

Congratulations To The Red devils on the squad announcements and good luck for the new season.!!
