Re: Five of the best overseas signings in SL history

Morley, i think Meninga and Boyd are both pre SL, but i'd have both of them in one of my teams :) Other players not mentioned that i personally remember and having an impact in SL Stacey Jones - absolute magician. Remember him killing us in the CC semi at Warrington. Even sent to the bin for 10, he ...

Re: New Contract for Harry Smith

on form well deserved contract extension, but equally its the stability for a period of time in a key position if we can keep Smith for the 4 years, and have French / Field alongside him at 1 & 6, for all or most of that time, we have a spine that will be frightening with the speed and ability t...

Re: Saturday games!!

i suppose there's swings and roundabouts in that though i struggle to get to Hull / Hull KR away on Friday night due to the time i finish work, and sometimes Wakey away has been difficult to get to.

Re: Shorrocks leaves the club

Would Shorrocks have known of Salfords financial plight before signing? If it is for “more game time” I’d have stayed at Wigan with a guarantee of wages etc. I sense a bit of spin here in the realms of “not needed” you would think not if you take the transfer on face value, i get why he wants to mo...

Re: Shorrocks leaves the club

Good luck Joe i personally think its the best choice for his own career. Stay at Wigan and be a squad member (albeit a valuable one) or move to guarantee 1st team game time (or as good as). he may not win the same number of trophies by moving, but he will be playing a lot more regularly, and fair pl...
