| Good luck to the lad. Whether he has made the right choice is another matter. He will have time to settle in at Salford and with all the changes have a chance to establish himself as a first teamer. Though I do wonder if all the vast number of planned changes at Salford will enable him to develop. I think a more stable side would have been more beneficial to him developing.

Looks like not many of them have found their way to the AJ Bell Stadium, in fact it looks like not many Salfordians have either.

Good luck to the lad, who obviously deserves SL opportunities, which he won't have with us after this season. But letting him go now puts money before Broncos supporters, despite the spin here: www.londonbroncosrl.com/news/5341.php
As the Widnes game was anyway almost certainly going to be my last trip to the Hive, I'm not too aggrieved, but this decision does increase the chances that we'll end this season bottom and pointless.

Where do you live?
If you live in Essex, then I will have to laugh.The London board was always one of my favourite forums on RLFANS. Hopefully, the good posters, a few I have met down the years, haven't been driven away by 'contributions' like yours.
Anyway, what are your thoughts on him as a player? C'mon let's make it an adult discussion.

Don't bring Essex into this
But as for MCB he's definitely a prospect, not the finished article but as the stats suggest he knows his way over the line. Defensively he makes the wrong read every now and then, but he's young and that can be fixed as can his passing, certainly more of a runner than a passer. Physically he's bulked up a lot over a short period of time and no real injury concerns which I'm aware of.

Thanks. I have not watched him play. It is interesting to hear the views of those who have and who watch him regularly

| That's a real shame, he was the best player when you ran Dragons close at the Hive and I wanted to see him this weekend (as I am making the trip for the Widnes game).

| Guardian today hints he is not the lasthttp://www.theguardian.com/sport/no-helmets-required/2014/jun/24/looking-forward-to-the-rugby-league-commonwealth-championship-2014rl
'The sudden departure of London Broncos’ brightest star of 2014, Mason Caton-Brown, to Salford on Monday night came as something of a shock. Most followers of the game expected him, Kieran Dixon and several others to depart The Hive at the end of the season so they could remain in Super League. Few thought it would happen with 10 games to go.
There are rumours that the winless Broncos could be gradually dismantled between now and transfer deadline day, with Matt Cooke next to follow fellow England international Scott Moore – a huge disappointment this season – who is heading to Castleford Tigers next season, and Dixon having a choice of several destinations.
With relegation all but guaranteed, it makes economic, if not sporting, sense. If Super League had a minimum salary cap as well as a maximum, the Broncos would be forced to field as strong as team as possible from now until September'
The BBC have helpfully been giving Australian translationshttp://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-27888329rl
Drongo - no-hoper or fool. Someone whose "lift doesn't go to the top floor" or whose "lights are on but no-one's home". Derives from a racehorse of that name in the 1920s, which never won a race out of 37 starts.
So I make that another 17 games before we are renamed London Drongos

| Wouldn't it be funny if Bradford get their 6 points back at the High Court, pick up a few more points and Salford are relegated with us.

Alas.......it ain't going to happen. Dr marwans millions had better not result in visits to the hive for next years end of season jamboree though.......I suspect he will walk if they aren't in the top 8 next year.

| Based on his whole approach, sorry mate not be nasty or anything but I agree, he wants silver, if he does not get it then he will go and do something else that gets him that silver.
WIth all the money he is spending he should be getting results, he isnt getting em!
