"I could still stay with Salford" - a trick to get the Salford fans onside me thinks.

I think it is pretty much certain we have him. Too much smoke for there to be no fire.

League express says today he's signed a 3yr deal with catalans

Does anybody think it's because of his riff with Carvell and their training ground bust up a few weeks ago

And is it true he doesn't even speak to Westwood

I heard exactly the same thing. Allegedly TS asked LAnderson to find a new club over this incident.

Note this may be completely wrong!

I thought the club had offered him a new contract and were disappointed that it wasn't accepted.

Fighting with Carvell and Westwood sounds better though.

Pity he's leaving as I really like him & the impact he has, hopefully it will free up some4 space on the salary cap for the younger lads

The rumour about the Andersons and Westwood has been going around for years. Can't imagine it's true. Never heard the Carvell rumours, our town loves a good gossip, so it's probably bs.

Maybe it is a mixture of the two? Like a WWE grudge match where LAnderson had to fight Carvell for a new contract, Carvell won by holding LAnderson in a four figure armlock and making him tap out.

I've heard the Carvell and Louis rumour, I was told that was why Gaz wanted to leave but then Louis agreed a deal with Catalans so Carvell then stayed.

Sounds abit peculiar mind. Again, don't know if it's true or not.

Why would anyone fall out with the Anderson's? Never a nicer couple of blokes have I met.

Its definitely true about the bust up, I heard it from a certain wolves player.
Carvell and Louis Anderson did have a training ground bust up, weather Smith asked Louis to find a new club on the back of it im not too sure.
Rumours also have it that both Louis and Vinny Anderson fell out with Westwood a few years back.
I would not be surprised if Louis was not well liked by the other players and I would not be surprised if that was one of the reasons he is leaving.
Next time Anderson plays watch how he interacts with the other players especially Westwood and Carvell, body language is very telling.

I played rugby many moons ago, i couldn't stand about 4 or 5 players, it's not as big a news as people make out, team mates doesn't equate to friends away from the game.

As long as they listen to the coach and work together on the pitch it really is a mute point.

What did Westwood do? He always reminds me of the honeymonster, how did these fine people end up falling out?

Don't be nosey

They argued over you. Louis said you were okay, Westwood said you were a tosspot, one thing led to another, Ben pinched Louis, Louis gave him a dead leg. Not spoke since.

I'm 'TEAM BEN', me.
