Sammut has gone to Bradford... according to The Sun, anyway.

Gareth Thomas anyone???

Any links to the news article coonfirming this?

As far as I can tell it was just rumour. Chan and O'Hara were both supposedly signing for Widnes, but O'Hara is also rumoured to be Salford bound. Crusaders exit from SL could really set the cat amongst the pigeons. There could be a bit of a stampede now? Talented players bad team, similar to ourselves.

O'Hara said on Twitter last night that he wasn't coming to us (unless I read it wrong and he was talking about Sammut).

And you wonder why we get called the Willows retirement home !!!!!!

No gareth thomas end of discussion !

Highlighted the relevant bit for you.

Im pretty confident we could find someone who is younger than him.

Infact im sure everyone playing pro RL is younger than him (not sad so not looking into that)

So simms has said we aint spending to full cap next year....wonder how much short of it we are these days? I guess thats gonna have a major say on the signings we can make.

Out of interest, have the club given any indication on how long it will be until we are spending full cap? i.e they said more finance when we move staidums...just wondered how quick that money comes through to the side? I know it depends on crowds...but just if they have an average crowd we need to get to, to spend full cap

Just wondering why Richard Moore from the CC hasn't been mentioned in the fire sale?

A good hard working prop, British and when you read about the difficulties he is currently experiencing with his son being ill you would suspect he'd be highly motivated to grasp any offer of a playing contract with both hands.

Well worth the punt of a one year rolling contract if you ask me.

Please don't sign Ade Gardner, another has been don't we ever think why clubs release this type of player, the club have decided to move on the player isn't moving out of choice.

[iIs Ryan O'Hara about to be signed by the Reds ?[/i

I know we don’t need another outside back as we can focus on other key positions but I ask the question would Jordan Tansey be worth a punt, he’s young and British. Even if we used him as a squad player as he provides cover for a number of key positions. I’ve always thought he has got some talent in his armoury it’s just the off field problems this player brings on himself. Maybe Mr Parish is the sort of disciplinarian Tansey requires.

Just a thought?

Bargepole!

Sorry but Tansey lurches from one misdemeanour to another, as we've seen before when you have one rotten apple it soom starts to spread to others in the squad.

Think you're being a bit harsh there mate, Welsh players have always been highly welcome at the willows.

Exactly this. IMO Crusaders was his last chance saloon, and he get himself into trouble there. Belongs no where near a Reds shirt, Ever!
