It wouldn't surprise you if Koukash return from Australia having signed Billy Slater for Salford?

Maybe he's just going to take him his coat back that he left in the bar in Manchester?

No, I wouldn't be surprised if he came home having managed to sign any NRL player as I honestly think he wants as big a name as possible to promote the clubs profile and well because he can.

You all need to calm down and get real. A top NRL star is going to cost £500k plus, minimum. That is not far off our a third of our cap. So unless the Doc gets his marquee signing through, it is not going to happen. Unless we back up with journeymen.

Think about it, the salary cap is balls. If marwan says I will pay u half a mill and it will come out of my pocket and £50k a year from the club. Does the RFL have the power to ask to c the docs accounts?

yes failure to disclose can lead to expulsion would it happen is another story if Koucash could bring Slater or anothor TOP star over it would bring so much positive column inches for E.S.L they would ignore it i think, pay over the top wages for 5 or 6 over the hill ex stars and they will look into your finances. just my opinion mind

He's not that bad.His problem is he doesn't seem to understand that you can't carry a ball loosely with one arm into a 2 man tackle on your 20 metre line.He's done it time and time again for us.
Saying that,he can also make a darting burst and do a great off load to set up a try.Swings and roundabouts,but his mistakes are sometimes very costly...much prefer Cockayne at fullback.

Good luck with that. Everyone in rugby league has been trying to do this for the past 15 months. It seems Mr Koukash's business accounts are held oversea's and not accessible to those in the UK.

I like Greg

If he could take on board what the coaches say instead of just playing his natural game no matter the circumstance he could be a top player.

But no matter how much the staff try and drill into him that he needs to be more responsible with ball in hand especially in his own end he just won't have it and a moment of absolute brilliance is followed by supreme lunacy.

He did OK today but do not like his running with one loose hand on the ball.

Good to see our attacking play has improved since dinosaur Noble left his post.

Glad you agree with me TS.

Nice to see a full back who can catch a bomb.

Eden did well underneath the high ball. It's something they obviously targeted before the game.
However, I thought his positional play wasn't great; I thought he wasn't deep enough for a couple of Widnes kicks, and they caught him out by kicking early a couple of times. Nevertheless, not a bad debut all in all.
