Unless you’re seeing something I’m not,it does not say that on the BMM thread,they are going on about Salmon King sponsoring another 2 players next season,they had sponsored BMM for 2017 season,and guys on that forum are taking the way it is said that BMM not being named,well etc etc etc.

Yeah he really didn’t and/or doesn’t want to leave Salford and that’s from the horses mouth itself. Even as a Salford fan i reckon Wire would be a better move for his career and the best chance of winning trophies which he deserves.

According to the league express this week, one of the topics is

There’s an update on Warrington’s pursuit of Salford forward Ben Murdoch-Masila – and it’s good news for Wire fans..

Sounds positive.

Ive just read that myself, fingers crossed

Just read rugby league live in the hulldaily stating BMM imminent signing for Warrington
Stating
Hull KR have given up hope of signing BMM with Warrington about to announce his capture

The Hull DM gets all its info from forum talk, they've had us signing 6 or 7 players from Leigh / Salford and our quota would need to be doubled to take the names mentioned. They've less idea than most on here

To Wire for £170k.

If it weren't for Forums, Facebook and Twitter 95% of Journalists would have nothing to say and what's more they wouldn't know where to start.

Get this one confirmed then happy day’s. If and when this is done and the Roberts, Goodwin and Akoula signings already signed, what if any other spots would we like covered.

Winger

Was in my thoughts to, who you replacing Russell or Lineham?

Russell definitely. He's simply not a winger and whilst Lineham isn't brilliant, he's a decent finisher.

Winger and an absolute beast of a prop would be nice. Get those 2 and we're good to go

Probably not the most popular answer, but I'd replace Lineham before Russell. Given that we could get the right calibre of players in I'd replace both though.

This may warrant its own thread...

The following players also left and presumably will need replacing in some form:

Dwyer
Savelio
Evans
Pomeroy
Blythe
Penny
Wilde

I think a new hooker is a must and a strong running offloading Savelio replacement as a bench back row would be useful.

Blythe, Wilde & Penny hardly played, so the need to replace them is less, but I think we need further three quarter cover for injuries - Would it be worth offering Pomeroy a 12 month deal? Is Prell a likely SL quality back up player next year?

I know plenty will want a new winger or two, but is that realistic within the cap that could be better spent elsewhere? Will Russell & Lineham look better (so good enough) in a side playing well? We could have put Greg Eden in a Wire shirt in 2017 and he probably wouldn't have looked too much better than our pair.

Props, we have Hill, Cooper, Akauola, Crosby (plus Philbin & Westwood) is that good enough? Maybe a young up and coming prop would be useful? Where does Pat Moran sit with that, is he a likely SL regular in the future?

As food for thought, KF has suggested we want two marquee players at the club, does this mean we will go in to the season with £150k free on our cap, in case someone becomes available part way through 2018? I'm a little unsure on where I would spend that marquee allowance, is it worth looking for a back row option to take the place of Hughes...? Or should we be saving it for another half/full back/centre? Or is it worth going big on a prop forward, and moving Akauola to that bench back row spot....
