Come on now Cam!

You’re not that quick?

And you’ve missed out the bit about only playing about 25% of games a season?

Agree. I was being flippant but Cust is likely to play unless Abdull sorts his fitness out.

Willie Peters & Brett Delaney across the river would suggest otherwise.

And smith and gene - did gene count as a coach?

Unless Delaney is another one the UK citizenship. Been here a long while now

On their website Hodgson is the assistant coach, so maybe that’s how they’ve got around it. Had it clarified. You can’t have an overseas coach and an assistant coach unless he’s played here.

Kearney and Fitzgibbon would have made expensive assistants

Think Last is a decent appointment. He’s got plenty of experience, worked in the England camp. Also local so there’s no additional cost of re locating. Whatever budget Myler has,
It’s not fantasy league. Everything has to be costed

Aussie S@C coming over for a few weeks in pre season.

Custs gonna surprise a few this season now he's a settled super league player.

Been here 3 years hasn't he? Can't even get in the salford team

Yes because the current Cronulla head coach was going to step down and come to us as assistant

Just to be clear I’d much prefer we used the quota spot elsewhere but for perspective we will finish the season rock bottom as the worst team in the competition and Cust is obviously a decent SL level player. I don’t know the ins and outs of budgets and who we targeted before him but maybe someone who can’t get in the Salford team is just our level now. It’s a shame we couldn’t get him in for whatever for the end of the season.

I say decent player because he seemed to play pretty regularly in a good Wigan team, and I’m sure he played a fair bit at hooker for them in the run in last season. Also he played nearly 30 NRL games by the age of 22 with a decent try scoring ratio, most of which while Cartwright was his assistant coach at Manly. That’s better than many players who have ended up doing well in SL. I think it’s the coaches recommendation and It’s not exactly blinkered to think he might even still have a bit of improvement at 25.

Lewis Murphy signed for Saints from next season. He could go one of 2 ways, constantly injured or make a really great winger
