Douglas

Lots of rumours on another site that he's signed for saints next year. If correct, seems a shame because he looks better than the winger we've signed from them. Perhaps the Wade thing was the final straw? Having said that I don't think Wade will be with us next season anyway but maybe Douglas isn't ...

Re: Sky Sports pundit Jon Wilkin calls for Man of Steel shakeup following Jake Connors rise to the top

I'm sure I'm not the only one to agree with Wilkin's comments. This has always been the weakness of the Man of Steel award but alternative systems have their weaknesses too. Perhaps the match to match scoring system should just be used to determine a short list (even a top 10?) which then gets voted...

Re: NRL in Salford takeover?

I'd like to think that the NRL could get involved with sorting SL out but I think it's unlikely that some of the established clubs would take the risk. If I was a savvy NRL club looking to invest in a SL side I certainly wouldn't pick Salford though. I'm a big fan of how the club has managed in rece...

Re: Warriors given double injury boost ahead of Hull FC clash

Pleased and relieved if Luke is fit to play. Perhaps this explain why we didn't recall either Chan or Makin from Salford. Very surprised that Adam is back so quickly and I'd imagine that he doesn't actually play this weekend. No need to risk anything with Eckersley playing so well.

Re: Sam Walters ?

I see that Chan and Makin are both named in Salford's squad for the weekend. Not certain what our plan is but I hope we don't miss the opportunity of getting revenge for the challenge cup loss.

Re: Disciplinary Easter Weekend

Pleased to see some (not enough?) differentiation between the Walters and Mbye sin binnings but, if Sam wasn't given any penalty points, does that mean that he shouldn't have been binned in the first place?

Re: New signing

God bless him. Martin just can't help himself. If you asked him to do a eulogy at your funeral he'd probably mention how many tries he scored. He was great to watch though.

Re: New signing

Whilst I accept that winger is probably the easiest position for a player to transition between codes, and Wade is an excellent athlete, the biggest problem I foresee is the difference in workload. In all of his career, Wade will have never had to carry the ball as many times as we'll expect him to....

Re: Harvie Hill

Although it's sad that they're both leaving you can understand their reasoning. Harvey does look to have more improvement in him whilst Liam has not yet reached the heights I hoped he could. Let's just hope that the club sees this as an opportunity to strengthen the squad rather than accept it's a p...
