Heard some rumours coming from Salford that the return of sarginson could be imminent should Sean wane return not sure on how I feel on this very physical player and wane could get the best out of him.

A frustrating player who should be a player that lights the comp up but more often than not perhaps doesn’t,yet when he’s not here the hole he leaves is a big one.

It wouldn’t surprise me if he returned at all

I hate to say I told you so, but I did say recruitment for 2022 would be underwhelming. Focus was on spending ££'s next year on the playing squad rather than spending ££'s covering losses, so this next season unfortunately will suffer.

I've not heard anything to suggest the plan has changed, If anything though it will be worse and this season and next season will suffer if crowds don't improve.

Looks like I'll be at least £234 better off next year depending on the next few signings, Thanks Lenners for ruining my love for the game

If Sarg is brought back then it's to resolved the problem of not being able to get out of our own yardage which was a massive drag on the team. The props took the blame on here but it's always the backs who get teams out of their area and on the front foot. It was obvious all season that Isa, Bibby, Gildart & Farrell couldn't do it.
If next year's backs look anything like French, Miski, Hankinson, Sarginson (Thornley) & Marshall then it won't be a problem at all.

There's a lot of doom and gloom about next year but I just don't see it. We'll have pace that no other club can match with French, Field & Marshall. We'll have two off loading forwards in KPP & Ellis and a new coaching set up should be able to get us there or there abouts. Let's be honest here, if that Wigan team of 2021 can get to fourth when they've been hindered by Lam every week then why couldn't we get higher next year?

Looking on here I must be the ultimate optimist as I see an improvement in the playing squad and the main benefit will be Lam won't be head coach. The squad last year wasn't too bad but it was that Lam wouldn't play our senior props. The one time he did we beat Catalans. Who else could we have beaten if he'd played three of the four senior props most weeks on a rotational basis. IMO the 2021 squad was a lot, lot better than the results due to shambolic team selection and non existent tactics/game plan.

With a couple of good signings for next year then I feel quite optimistic about it all.
Needless to say I'll shall aquire the four season tickets as usual and am looking forward to it already.

Not by me josie see them in action weekly. That's the reason saints are taking best young talent from under our noses. Same culture of who you know not how good you are.
