I'm not sure why you'd carry a half-back on your interchange bench, particularly as they've been reduced by nearly 50% for next season. I would guess most teams will pack them with forwards.

I also rate George at prop, thought he put some good shifts in last season. Whereas Adam Walne is nothing but a penalty machine and unlike Weller (another culprit of conceding penalties) he doesn't offer enough quality when he is on the to make up for it. He certainly has time on his side though and I am hoping under Sheens guidance, both the Walne brothers crack on and fulfil the promising potential they shown when they first burst into the first team squad.

Also, if Lee does get injured we've got Matty Wilkinson to step in and if need be Gareth O'Brien and even Phil Joseph.

I think one thing we can all agree on is the need for a couple more bodies in the pack, whilst Ferres would be a great coup, it would still leave us a prop or two short.

Is this about my comment on another topic JGR if so i understand your point about Griffin just feel he would benefit playing loose. I guess it's all matter of opinions and the experts know more then us

I feel this could be Adam Walne make or break season for me he has all the attributes to be a top class forward but he has the ability to throw in a few brain farts in there as well.

Hooker position is a worry for me reason i included O'Brien as we could see spell the hooker position with Lee. Might be unfair to throw Wilkinson in just yet!

Ferres would be an amazing coup exactly what we need we have the grafters now we need someone who breaks the line

I think it's about time the Walne Brothers took the step up and proved something. While talented and not shy, they have been more of a liability for the last few seasons. I think this may be their last chance to push forward. Saying that, being academy products the Club will get a little discount on the cap which is probably helping the Club at the moment. They do need to realise that there are other younger forwards ready to step into their shoes if they don't kick-on.

we also need 8 Club trained in the squad to abide by salary cap rules
Current squad members who qualify :- 10 No.
Matthew Haggarty ( saints on Loan but Ex Salford Academy )
Jake Bibby
Matty Wilkinson
Ryan Lannon
Josh Wood
Liam Bent
Nial Evalds
Jordan Walne
Adam, Walne
Matty Gee

so they could off load - or loan out 2 and still be legal

Don't really understand your question?

I've no idea about next season, but I know we definitely didn't receive any dispensations last season.

I think his question is that if Salford were spending up to the salary cap limit in 2015, then why have they been limited in 2016? After all, the no more than 50% of club-relevant income rule was in place this year.

In this week’s League Weekly Wakefield chairman Michael Carter says his club will be operating on a cap of around £1.65m for 2016, with Salford ‘around that mark’.

According to the doc there is 2 possibly 3 more to come in after Tomkins. Hopefully all forwards?!

Gallen, Burgess and maybe a Burgess

Did he say when the 3 would be coming in?

God I hope not, one clown called Chico connected to Salford is more than enough

That's a relief.

Bugger, didn't know you might have misconstrued that innocent remark
