Forgive me if this is old news

Signed from South Sidney apparently

Not clever enough to do a link but see link on KOTS posting about 'Players coming off contract in Auz'

I think there's been something in the MEN about McPherson but I've not read it to confirm this.

Nice to see you back by the way.

A young 25 , tough defender & tireless worker

more interestingly as he had confirmed his signing with the crusaders does he qualify for the quota dispensation offered by thr RFL ?

Don't know if it's confirmed but Russell Crowe said on Twitter that he was a really good prospect and would do great in SL.

Hopefully he will come over to us, would be another good young signing.

Think from what I've read he would have too, does say on the Rabbits profile page that he is a 2nd row or lock, though he is the right type of age and size for me to blend in well.

there will be a Salford exception to the rule, which we will be informed about just as we qualify for the play offs next year and have all our points deducted for playing an ineligible player

Would be a decent signing. Hardworking forward. Not as big as Cashmere but runs on to the ball at pace which I would hope he continued to do if he came. Has seen a fair amount of game time this year due to the high number of injuries at Souths.

RFL announcement on Crusaders states



there isn't a list of these players.

Noticed that Jason Chan PNG has signed a 3 year deal with Huddersfield Giants

It just occured to me that he is still a contracted player of Souths until the NRL season ends so can he technically have signed for the Crusaders yet? might have agreed in principle to join them but unless he has put pen to paper legally I doubt they will allow him to come play over here and not count as an over seas player.

Harlequins have announced the signings of Mark Bryant and Michael Witt from Crusaders

Sammut's gone to Bradford , Chan to Huddersfield . Ryan O'Hara's linked with Hull KR

I guess they're all lined up at Wrexham sorry ( Wrecsam Staition ) like evacuee's with an address label on their shirts & their boots wrapped over their shoulders

Pack up your troubles in your old kitbag and...................................

After the scramble to sign journeymen Aussies who dont count on the quota I wonder if there will be anyone interested in signing any of the welsh lads who have come through their system.

Lloyd White looks like a player with potential, Gil Dudson has size and is a strong runner and Eliott Kear could be worth a look. Ive only seen bits of them but salary wise they wouldnt be demanding a fortune.

Mcpherson has stepped up for Souths this year with long term injuries to Asotasi, Burgess and others. Wholehearted player, reminds me a little of Rutgerson in attitude.

I said this myself, we have a long history of bringing in some wonderful Welsh talent and I'd love to see us take a punt on a couple of thier youngsters, did say I'd like to see Thomas playing at the new ground as that would be wonderful publicity and you'd think a big household name like that would be self financing.

Signing Gareth Thomas would have zero impact on the people of Salford - it worked (briefly) for a team in Wales because he's a star there but he means very little in Salford; if anything locally, he'd raise awareness of the club to the gay community.

Increased media coverage though maybe? (especially with the hoards off BBC rah-rahs begrudgingly moving north?!)

Pretty sure Thomas with some of his 'pretty' rugby playing mates (stunners like Broughton and Gibson) would go down well in the village though - maybe Barton could be a draw for the pink pound?!?
