Wonder if we got a fee for Hock, you'd assume so....

Hardly going to worry the top teams with that list, a few decent signings for them though

He's good aint he !

The guy has sent out a serious message of intent, to ensure that Salford are successful

Love him or hate him , he is without doubt a massive and very refreshing change.

I hope the salford fans get behind the club in numbers and do as the doc says makes the welcome for away teams as "hot as hell "

agree..should keep them off the bottom, but you feel lots of those names are going there for a last big payday

Proof if it was needed on how hard it is now to build a team from scratch without the ability to import top players from the NRL.

That list is chocked full of has been, crocks, indisciplined players and players with 'issues'.

They might scrape the play offs but this project needs to be long term. They need to do a Huddersfield and sign up good young English players they can develop.

People sad the same when Wire first started flashing the cash, and when Man City first started spending big. Worked out ok for them 2! They'll need to sign some fodder and mercenaries at first. It will take a few years to turn them round from where they were to being in a position where they can attract genuine big names and compete for honours. Good luck to em

Agreed. Its a good start but id say it would only put them around 7th or 8th in the table which is an improvement on this years placing. As others have said, they ned to sign some aussies/kiwi's to get them going but if they want to be as big as Dr Koolcash wants them to be then they need to develop their own players

Salford need to work from the ground up, invest in youth development, good scouts and the like. Make it a 10 year plan rather than a 12 month stop gap.

Agree that Salford should invest in local Rugby and introduce a good scouting system, let's not forget though that Brian Noble is their coach.
