I disagree. Why would Senior moan about it?

Another fine display from our current No.1. Brilliant pass for Hodgy's 2nd.

I would plead with the board to reconsider and get round the negotiating table. Tomkins aside, there is no better full back in SL at this moment ( and I include Brett Hodgson in that).

Yep I agree stan Shannon is now like a breath of fresh air why dont we get a chant going at catalans please sign Shannon please sign Shannon

The problem with that is we have no idea what he is after and we do actually have a salary cap to stick too.
I can just see the conversation now 'I want £250,000 that ok?' 'Sure we'll give you just over 1/7 of our total salary cap Shannon no problem'.

What how much that's slightly OTT really isn't it

I thought the rumour was he was offered 60 grand by us but offered 85 by widnes I totally understand what ur saying but I for one hope they cud re negotiate unless he has already signed on the dotted line for sum one else what prob is a bit of a bug bear is wud he have got this opportunity if it hadn't of been for sandercock who knows, he will be a big big loss to us.

You've not quite grasped the concept of negotiation have you?

No I have but if he wants silly money and has been offered it elsewhere we either offer him the same silly money or he walks.

Like I said no one knows what he wants or what he has been offered elsewhere.
So saying just renegotiate and get him signed up may cost us a hell of a lot more than we can budget for.

I hope you are right and that we are not that far away and a deal could be struck but on the other hand he could be asking for far more of our cap than we can realistically give to one player.

I said the same to the guys last night, Shannon gets better with every game and it would be a real shame if both parties didn't come together to try and sort out a deal that's acceptable to both.
I realy do believe that Sandercock has the makings of a good side at his disposal that will only get better if the majority of the current crop of players are kept together plus one or two quality additions.
Also, as iv'e previously commented, Good fullbacks are in very short supply at the moment.

11 out, 8 in. Do keep up.

Is he/will he be in the Ireland team vs the Knights?

Says who,? unlike you i prefer not to take too much notice of the millions of rumours flying about but wait and see what materializes nearer the day.
Just for your information i hear things every week from people and friends, some of who have quite close connections to the club, however it doesn't mean i take it all as definitive.
Do keep out.

Easty reliable?

Whatever.
