Logic would suggest that, if Murphy was going to be 1st choice fullback next season, he would have played there tonight in place of Grix!

Indeed. And we missed Grix last night IMO. Connor did very well, don't get me wrong, but it was his second start at that level and he was clearly nervous at first. He wasn't as involved as Grix would be and thus Brough & Robbo had more to do and we had slightly fewer options.

It was a cracking try from Connor though and great strength.

was thinking that too... or maybe they just dont have as much faith in blackmore on the wing!

have some options now with connor thrown into the mix too now

I think it was more of a case that PA wanted to make as little changes as possible. And also would have been a big ask pitting blackmore up against the dog botherer!

Signed on a four year deal. Announced this morning.

Glowing reports from anderson too

Essentially we have lost Dawson but Blackmore looked to have gained favour over him, from the game I saw Blackmore looked good a couple of mistakes but other than that a good prospect!
Lost George who has been replaced by broughton! So now we have broughton, Murphy, Blackmore, jerry... Last year we had George, Murphy, Blackmore, Dawson and jerry! So less of a headache this year?? Anderson picks on form and has proved to be rite on the majority of his team selections, so I say let the lads battle it out! In Anderson we trust!

top signing!

what a great try scoring record he has too.... great that he decided to join us, no doubt he had other offers.

imagine Cudjoe and broughton pairing up together!

Interview on radio Leeds after six

I'm gutted that Jodie's leaving Salford especially now we've got what appears to be a more than competitive team for next year. Jodie has been one of the few bright spots in what has been a bleak few years and trust me, if he stays fit he'll score bags of tries for you, Some of the tries he's scored in a Salford shirt have been a joy to watch and I'll be backing him e/w to finish top SL try scorer for you guys next year. Good luck Jodie, just make sure you have a 'mare when play us! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2x1x9oPm6V0 (god I miss you too Stef!: )

Good luck to Jodie, you've bagged a not only a very professional athlete, you've signed a real ambassador, who's always got time for everyone and never has a bad word. He'll be missed at Salford, but he goes with everyone's best wishes I'm sure. He'll bag a load of tries for you and will always get a good reception when he comes back and plays against us.
