| Big lad. Young and could be anything. But certainly a much needed boost for us. Look forward to seeing the lad play

| Cross would be a good signing, centre is our weakest position currently and Cross would be a welcome addition. I imagine Salford won't command much of a transfer fee for players given that they have to cut costs by 40% as part of them being in special measures

Be a very good signing if we can get him over the line.

Agree, given the current state of the non quota player pool Cross would be an excellent acquisition and even more with our need to add some quality in the centres.

| Would be happy with Cross. Really don't think he's anything special but he is a good solid SL player and that is better than what we have so it's a worthwhile addition.
Our young centres (Westerman and Dawson) both seem to be a couple of years off been ready (maybe only 1 year for Westerman) so if we can get Cross on a 2 year deal that would keep us going until we know if either of them are ready to step up, or also if Litten is capable of being a permanent centre.
He's better than Chamberlain, and Chamberlain is better than any of our other current back ups, so definitely a good move for squad balance.

| Cross is better than what we have but we do have to be careful that we don't run out of 2026 cap space if we keep signing stop gaps

| I know Salford will insist they donโt want to lose anyone but surely from their point of view theyโve got decent back options and if they lost Cross it wouldnโt be as bad for them losing someone like Sneyd? Especially if thereโs a small transfer fee. Cross wouldnโt get into their 17 as a centre and off the top of my head they have Ryan who could replace Cross on the wing.
We could do with centre options and supposedly have some cap space so could be a goer but like always with Lancashire based players depends on who else is interested and if heโll want to relocate.

| Salford would still have a backline of Ryan, Marsters, Lafai, MacDonald with Hankinson as back up. Leaves them light but they might not have much option.
Cross would be a good pick up for us, but it sounds like he's a long way off signing

Yeah, the article says heโs a โtargetโ but letโs face it who hasnโt been a target for us since April? He fits the bill with his age and being a non quota centre but youโd expect for any move for a contracted player would require a lot of willing on their part, Lancashire players are not always so keen.

| Not 100% sure on Cross, but adds competition to a weak position.
Two things I do like is
We are actively trying to recruit and the right positions and we are willing to pay fees for players.

| Yeah im not fully sold on Cross, think he's better on the wing than at centre. However its another player who won't demand a huge amount and doesn't take up a quota.

in a much better side.
Only issue for me is we'd probably have to offer him a decent wedge and likely a 3 year deal to get him to move over

sorry Steve i think its a poor signing
if we are looking at a new centre and we should be then save the money and find what we really need for 2016
This is just a slight upgrade on Chamberlain and he is pants

He is given what's available, he's been playing well regularly in a team that plays very good rugby and has finished above us consistently over the last few years so he's good enough for me.

Thatโs my point, whilst Cross isnโt world class quality he is a decent centre and would more than improve us in an area we are lacking. Without any quota spots and a pretty abysmal pool of players that were available by the time we started shopping then Iโd be disappointed more if we didnโt make a play to sign Cross.
Think under Cartwright every player has an opportunity to improve and also gives Cartwright & Myler chance to fully evaluate where we are come the mid point of the season.
The noises coming from the club to me indicate that things can & will be changed should players of quality become available.
We still have to be realistic as to where we were and where we are currently, hopefully with the improvements at the club weโll see an decent up turn in games which will help in terms of the next recruitment cycle.
