Unconfirmed reports this morning state that
Scott Moore has been signed by the Widnes Vikings.

I thought he was coming to the Reds, but never mind we move on.[/i

Has been confirmed to Widnes members via text mate. Will be on website in hour or so going off usual process.

hmmm could have done with him

Not too bothered tbh. Doesn't seem to add much to Saints when he's on the pitch.

CONFIRMED NOW on SPORTING LIFE.COM

he has been their worst performer during the playoffs. why they kept with him and not Leon for the final was beyond me.

move on and see who else is available...

Scott Moore is a good player but for me he would not have been a priority for taking the squad forward.

I like the addition of Ashurst because I think he had a greater potential than Luke Adamson. The coming off season is huge in terms of Adamson's career and the season he has of the back of that. He turns 24 this November and really needs to show next season that he's got another level to go to.

In terms of next season I would like to see one more prop brought in of the calibre of Shannon Macpherson or better. That with coupled with some real quality off season work and we could talk about making the top 8 as a realistic target rather than the certainty the club allowed to be portrayed last year.

Not disheartened at all about missing him. Penalty machine and also makes plenty of errors. Plenty of those about.

Totally agree.
Those who saw him in the Grand Final will be happy we did not get him.

Agree entirely with you here. Penalties are most often punished these days with not just two points but very often 4 or 6. We really don't need that stuff.

Not ever been totally convinced with his ability.

Would have been happy to see him come but I'll not lose any sleep over the fact he hasn't, think Smith and Wagga will be the hookers and we'll maybe see Moon and Spencer in the halves with DJ.

I'm figuring you're mixing Spencer with Sneyd there?

I got the impression that Parish sees Smith's future at scrum half after reading that Long would be working intensively with Smith in the off season

Please don't try and make Matty Smith a hooker... Our game loses enough good young halve backs as it is this way!

Personally I think smith is better at hooker, less time he has to think the better perhaps long will develop this part of his game but he will need to step a yard nearer our opponents defensive line to make them check then and only then ill consider him a better scrumhalf than hooker.
