Coach - Lam or Trent Barrett to be given 3/4 years

Retire - SOL & TL

To leave - Williams, Tautai, Isa, Hankinson, Sarginson, Sammutt, Powell, Clubb, Marshall

Bring in - hard to say..we need a new centre. 2 dominant props who are hard hitting and big runners (Fifita and Watts maybe)

2 new halves - Sandow is available..Hastings..Sneyd..Gale take your pick

New hooker - Parcell at Leeds is decent

Josh Jones is going well at the minute
Adam Milner and Mcshane at Cas would be good additions with Junior Moors

Dream on.

Hastings does not like Wigan, He is never coming, He is at his level of standard at Salford

He still looked the best half on the pitch this afternoon.

Sarginson was very good yesterday, will he ever get any credit?

People are missing a vital point here. You can't simply just get rid of a contracted player. You'd have to pay them off which counts on the salary cap.

The power is with the player if you want to get rid of them, unless they want to leave, which means that you pretty much have to pay the rest of their contract. How do you then replace them if you have already used up their salary by paying them off? It just doesn't work.

Is this a fact or is it just that he was a paid a lot more to stay at Salford?

Fact, It was mentioned around the time we tried to sign him

For me :

Sarginson < Bill Tupou/Peter Matuatia
Powell < Brad Dwyer
Clubb < Craig Kopczak
Isa < Matty Ashurst/Jack Hughes
Leuluai < Sam Tomkins (7)

Also can go - Davies, Navarette and maybe Tautai and Marshall should we need cap space.

Funny how a thread with a title of realistic targets has turned into a thread of a wish list! In relation to the comment above, Tomkins ship has set sail and should not be brought back. He’s been good for us but his loyalty isn’t to the club, it’s to his wallet. That’s fine, no issues but wouldn’t want to to come back again.

Powell might not be the best but he’s not bad enough to wish Brad Dwyer on us! I’ve never seen a player who’s as one dimensional and predictable.

Kopczak signed on extended terms at Wakey, Sam Tomkins is unrealistic and Hughes/Ashurst are also on long term contracts.
