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?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Lawton Off contract with Widnes, allegedly put in some decent performances last season according to media reports. At 6 ft 7 tall and nearly 20 stone would add some grunt to the pack….

Big unit, I recall seeing him playing early on in his career and looking like a bit of a beanpole, obviously has filled out. I know the link is outdated somewhat but with only 37 games at 28 years of age, you have to ask why?

Any forward from Widnes would add no “grunt” whatsoever.

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.
