Magoulias saying today Trinity were the other serious option for him after we came in with a strong bid.

Think he would have been a good signing for us, his style would suit the way we play.

He also said the major draw was working with Powell…he will soon regret that decision! He may get results but not many of his players enjoy working with him.

Yes it’s a shame isn’t it. Think he’d of been a good fit at 13 for us. It’ll be interesting to see who else pops up who’ll we’ll be interested in and if we were ever interested in Kane Evans.

I suppose the plus side there is we clearly have some cash to splash on a quota player. MC one hell of a poker player

I wonder whether his recent comments regarding costs of quota players were linked to this lad. Perhaps he asked for extras we wouldn't pay and Warrington would. The Powell bit certainly doesn't ring true, I seriously doubt his name is a drawcard to most Aussies.

I guess it is the same for Langi who didn’t join us because Chester was no longer the coach. I wonder how many believe that to be the case but the bottom line is that neither have which is very disappointing.

Well not quite.

I agree, Langi was disappointing because he had agreed, this bloke never signed anything so that's just how it goes. Why the need to make it a bigger deal than it is?

Because he’s rubbish.

Lawron recently signed a two-year contract extension with Widnes.

Am trying not to use the "looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane" cliche, because he has had some impact out wide against Championship defences and can take a bit of stopping at that level, but his defence is really poor and I don't think he'd really make that much impact in attack in SL. A back row version of Keegan Hirst, but Hirst was a better player.

I see Salford have splashed the cash on Marc Sneyd. Is the Dr still involved with them?

Sneyd left on a free transfer.

What cash?

Maybe so but has to be on a hefty wage, where thes money coming from to afford him and the two NRL players?

How do you know he's on a hefty wage, he was let go on a free so hardly in a great bargaining position. But I agree I do wonder where Salford get their money from.
