Why would you let him go now and not at the end of the year?

salford were reported to be skint! we may have offered them money for holdsworth as they now have a transfer embargo lifted

We'll take JB aswell if there in need of cash!

Vice presidents dinner about a month ago.

Thought the same thing. Busted.

I don't disagree that most of the time it madness and I agree some of the signings which are rumoured beggars belief, however I suppose the option is not to open the thread. Other boards do have their rumour thread in fact so much so that theirs are stickys, I actually think ours should become a sticky as like you say for the last couple of years it is probably one of the most active threads in both off season and season.

I quite liked the rumours thread, until someone went too far and posted the Mcgoldrick rumour.

I can't think of player in SL that I would least like to sign, I'd rather have Cockayne.

Holdsworth would be a decent signing, not a brilliant and one, but he is a lot better than Horne and Smith (who Wigan are after), there isn't much out there so may be the best available.

Be great if it was a double swoop with Broughton coming also.

And to be greedy I'd still like a FB.

Doesn't broughton have a good job over in manc?

Lawyer ain't he? Maybe our newest, bestest friend can get him fixed up here?

The new city board member? Jumped into pearson's shoes pretty quickly, didn't he? Be running the SMC next, watch this space

Architect, got a good job and still at Uni.

Surley Broughton is a FT rugby player, don't know of any other SL players who have another job.

Good piece in the HDM from Gentle about Ben Crooks and other young player.

Says we have a couple of holes to fill, one area being the front row.

You beat me to it

Glad to hear they're prioritising the right positions. Also, is there a hint there that Aspinwall may not be kept on, or is he now seen as a prop option?

Still can't see us getting Finch or Chase. Only half I can see in SL is Holdsworth. Either him or someone from NRL. Still think we will get Johnson and Watts along with Crookes and maybe a NRL prop, Galloway/Kite.
