| Mullaney has possible been our best player going forward so i will be gutted if its him. His kicking been bad though but not the worst ive ever seen. Rapira has also given his all and made good yards for us when he plays but hes always injured. Smith, well i think hes only had one good game for salford and that was on th opening day. He catching is bad, his kickin up the field been terrible and people know what hes going to do before he does. Im gutted cos when he played against us last season he was awsome but he isnt doing it for us this year

| Confirmed as Locke - Barker's latest tweet:
Neil Barker @NeilBarker14 21m
Total respect for the Doc - he confirmed Locke but said do not use it - I did not - only come out since NZ sources acted on MEN speculation

| It could all turn out badly yet. Barker said discussions are at a delicate stage.

| Jumping the gun I know but assuming two players are leaving, is this wise business just a few days before a massive cup match? Personally I'd imagine this speculation would be quite unsettling for the team.

| That's why it helps when people keep schtum and don't start posting rumours on message boards.

Do you honestly expect a story of this magnitude (Started by a RL journalist on Twitter) not to be posted and discussed on this fans forum? Come on. If the Doc wanted to keep it schtum the last person he should have told was Neil Barker.

| I was joking, but in all seriousness when things are as delicate as they are this is the last place you want them to be discussed.
In all fairness to Barker I don't think he has still mentioned anyone's name and has just passed on what a NZ website had posted. It appears the Doc has told him to be quiet and he has.
If it comes off, it's huge. I just hope we don't jeopardise it.

| Once bitten, twice shy. Tomkins etc, you can understand why MK wants to keep it hush.

Jeez. Not the usual suspect is it (whatever he's calling himself this week)?

| Totally but the Doc probably assumed by telling Barker to keep it quiet also involved not mentioning two players are possibly leaving and mentioning a player from NZW could be signing. It seems Neil Barker conveniently interpreted this as not to actually reveal the name of the player but drop lots of hints on a social media site.

| Do you really think the Doc didn't know what he was doing when he told Barker not to mention the name?
I think Dr K perfectly understands the press and how to use it!!

I'm not sure because there was talk this morning of the Doc telling Barker the deal was at a delicate stage. Furthermore if you were signing a high profile International player of this standing would you not want maximum impact through the media rather than it coming out before a deal is actually done?
