Yes all these double barrel names. Very posh we just need Robbie Hunter- Paul back now.

| Quote: TheButcher "The recruitment from Harris is way ahead of Noble, even at this stage. I also think recruiting this early for next season can only be a major plus point. Come pre-season, the team should be pretty much complete, and can concentrate on the tasks at hand instead of players being drip-fed into the system up until the start of the season. Team is looking good so far, and Harris having a pre-season can only be a good thing.'"
Absolutely, and this ties in with the 'Our own worst enemies' thread where we don't seem to be disappointed enough with the way the season has gone. It's because some of our signings last year were a bit less than stellar. I remember sitting there as they were announced and thinking there was a mix of 'yay's and 'oh's. They've all been 'yay's so far this time.

| I try to upbeat as much as possible about salford as i really like Marwan and i can truly see the potential that he talks about but i think the Caton Brown signing is a bad one. I think he is very much flavour of the month and his weakness will be really shown up in a team that will be competing, Also i don't think you can afford to carry players or try to develop them on the job.
Shaun Lunt fit and in the same mind space as he was at leeds will make you a lot stronger.

Shhhhhhhhhh don't encourage them by saying things like that, we could sign GI on 50p a week and he would become crap overnight and earning more than Bill Gates.

We've only really got two out and out centres, with Jason Walton, I suspect, destined for the second row. One of those centres is Martin Gleeson, and I'm not sure he's got too many years left in him. So, we need a centre. Mason Caton-Brown is as good as anything we're likely to get at the moment, and he's still young enough to deal with whatever weaknesses he may have.
I think he's a very good signing.

Elaborate on who you think is dross out of Kevin Locke, Ben Jones-Bishop, Weller Hauraki or Mason Caton-Brown?

Why? He's given you a clue by including his IQ in his user name. He won't be back to answer you.

I suspect that Gleeson will either retire at the end of this season or maybe go to a Fev or drop down, for me I think Gleeson would make a good coach at some point, maybe even a good backs coach for us working along side his best mate Long as attacking coach.
When you look at MCB's stats he appears too be a little weak defensively so you'd hope that we concentrate on that with him, I still maintain that he has the potential to be an international an as is pointed out above is young enough for a proper coaching set up too help him fulfill his potential.
I think Walton has the skills to be a cracking lose forward but his use at the moment lies in the fact he can cover in the centres or the the back row which makes him when everyone is fully fit the perfect bench player.

Thanks for your expert analysis but please excuse me for not taking it too seriously.
Go back a few seasons and we signed a half back from Saints who was only getting a few games and had been on loan
at Crusaders and Salford for the previous two seasons.
I remember then we was told his kicking game was poor his defence was flawed and he couldn't guide a team around the field.
Most of this advice came from Wigan fans probably because he came from Saints.
Wonder what became of him ?

| So our back line next season will probably line up as follows:
1. Locke (25)
2. Johnson (24)
3. Caton-Brown (21)
4. Sa'u (27)
5. Jones-Bishop (25)
6. Chase (2icon_cool.gif
7. Dobson (2icon_cool.gif
The Doc doesn't know what he's doing!!
Harris out!!
