Are you related to Cox or Mooney??

No just a keen supporter who has watched the academy for the past 5 years. I forgot to mention Macani who will no doubt be snapped up. Just don't forget the club ditched off the next crop. Druce,mooney,cox,keen,little etc. Is that better?
The above mentioned was just an example.
I could go on but what is to be gained?
Or would you rather a rose colour tint to it all?

| So if or when we go down of course the talent will try and go elsewhere, but bradford will have the same problem. You are tgen in the situation with only 12 top flight clubs trawling the quality up, so in effect their are less job, so not all will go.
its what happens with oromotion and relegation, the team that gets promotednext year if anyone does, thenthey most likely inherit the quality players from the team that go down! Its not just a problem we face

No disrespect to any of them players but where are they now??
If they were that good surely they'd be in Super League?

If you're saying they won't get offers, I'd disagree with you on that. I like them both, play with a lot of heart and give it 100% every time. No they won't be the big name stars, but I think plenty of clubs would be happy to have them in their pack.

| I've been quite happy with Jon Wallace as it goes, although I haven't seen a lot of the U19s.

| I'd be surprised if we can keep MCB, Dixon and one or two others but we should certainly be looking for good £££ and Koukash seems willing to spend it.
I still expect us to have the makings of a strong Championship side for next year.

| Keyes, Burnett and Everett re-signed. Keyes has plenty of hype to live up to.
Looking good IMO.

Trouble is, most if not all players contracts will probably be void if relegated. Most players contracts will do this to enable them to have options. Most Clubs will just wait until those contracts are void before offering contracts to any players they may be interested in. Therefore avoiding any money output.
Not fair, but the way of the world. As a Salford fan I've spent many years watching other Clubs do this to us, so I feel for you guys.

| Georgiebrown - you may have been watching the academy for 5years but you clearly can't see talent if you think Jon Wallace is average. He has the potential to be a very good forward. Mooney was always going to university to further his education, cox has the attributes but not sure his body would hold out and keen doesn't have the skill leave yet to be a super league player. All three would be good championship players and need further time to develop.

| I am actually looking forward to 2015 more than I have looked forward to any season for years.
We have a very good, ambitious coach and, even if we allow for the loss of MCB and Dixon, we have some quality young players in the likes of JWH, Keyes, Bishay, Macani, Lovell, McMeeken, Wallace, Wicks and our Albanian front rowers. All these lads will better for their SL experience and they will all improve under Grima. Get 3 old heads on board (would love to keep Cook!) and unite the Griffin brothers and I would reckon we'll be as strong as Leigh.
I would also be surprised if we lost (m)any fans in dropping down. Let's face it, we're left with core now. Indeed, a competitive team might some new speccies and the welcome return of some old ones.
Keep the re-signings coming Broncos! Would love to see some of the names above commit for 2015!

Very much agree with this, I think we're probably at rock bottom with our supporter numbers - the only way is up!
Hopefully a few old bruisers will become available sign to beef up our pack.
