| Of course there's a chance he wouldn't want it but you can't just guess he doesn't but if we are guessing then I would guess that the guy got in to coaching because he is ambitious and wants a Head Coach position in Super League. It may be too early for him but surely it's worth asking the question isn't it?

| Sure there is more to this than meets the eye, unless a headcoach is seriously ill (as much as I dislike SM I don't wish him ill) there is no way he will be off ill and be away to "run his ship"???

| Quote: Bobby Digital "I heard you sign Bailey and Anderson,without giving them a proper medical.Plus they both signed deals worth £150k a year.Not a troll i work with very passionate Salford fans.'"
the medical checks at Salford are said to be dreadful. For the last 2 years Wild at the Giants has been a creeking gate. With careful micro management he got through last season. I am told the Giants offered Wild a 1 year contract on low money as a cover player who might manage 50% of games. Not surprisingly he took a 3 year deal for more than x2 the money. Also at canterbury Patten was said to be on the physios table up til Thursday every week.
As Director of coaching Mr Simms should oversee the medical / physio / conditioning at the club. The fact that too many 'crocked' players have been signed on long term deals and then may get 2nd rate support is poor for Wilkinson, the club and the fans.

Do you really know that though? Really? It's easy to bash the club about everything you can think of but to think we sign players to multi year contracts without doing a thorough medical would mean that not only are we a poorly run rugby club but a very poorly run business. Despite our performances on the pitch I'd like to think that the board know what they're doing from a business perspective.

Must admit I had heard similar a while back, That said I would hope that a player/Clubs Insurance would cover the player should he be forced to retire whilst in contract ?

Wild has been working his socks off and putting about 40 tackles a game in. I wouldn't mind a few more crocks like him playing for Salford!

| I have been one of the many calling for mcrae to go and I don't wish any illness on the guy at all but will be interesting to see if during this month off due to illness he is still well enough to be a summariser on live games on sky

Who is bashing salford with everything?
If you want to pretend that Wild (Anderson, bailey, feka, Patten) is in tip top shape go ahead. If by the end of the 11 and 12 seasons SW et al have managed around 70-80% of games rub my nose in it. The giants do not have a high paid 'director of coaching' and it would be a backward step if simms were to join the Giants (would never happen)
Wild managed 16 sl games last year.

Around 34 tackles a game and missing 12% of them [4 a game!]. A high figure for a good back rower. I am not bagging SW, he did a great job at the Giants. Will he hold up for the whole of 2011...and 2012....and 2013? I doubt it.

If you look hard enough you may find someone who gives a s**t what you say. Go away.

| I've heard similar things about both wild and patten from a friend with close acquaintances at hudds. I have no reason to doubt what he's told me. And his info has always been pretty much spot on.

| The more I think about it and having read the club statement about McRae, I come to three conclussions. 1) The club have given McRae a month off and are hoping results improve therefore when he does return the clamour to get rid of him will have died down and they are hoping supporters will sympathise with his 'illness' and lay off him and he will go quietly at end of season. 2) Thye have given him a month off and at the end of that month they will announce he is stepping down due to health reasons or 3) He actually is ill and is juts having a month to recover and will be back.

| The official word is on the club website - they confirm he is ill and will be off for a month.

Both Bailey and Anderson DID NOT have medicals before signing for the club on large contracts. Bailey is unlikely to play due to suffering a torn archilles last year. Anderson had more work done on his back than he should have done and is really in no fit state to be considering playing. All facts.
