1. Lomax
2. Makinson
3. Turner
4. Percival
5. Broughton

That looks exciting.

I wonder, though, have Saints ever produced good young wingers of their own?

Joey Hayes is the last one I can think of. When he first broke into the side he was fast and powerful, but an injury seemed to see him off. That's about it as far as my 21 years watching Saints goes.

do people really rate jordan turner? just wondering to me he doesnt seem at all as good for us as he did at hull last couple of years looks to be going through the motions.

Could this just be a fund raiser by his agent???

NRL players used to do this, find a club say you are talking to them and get a bump in your wage packet???

Yep. Koukash has stated very clearly he has money to spend and so I would imagine given the difficulties Salford have experienced while Broughton has been with them that Broughton's agent now sees an opportunity to secure a decent contract for his client, for once. I can't say I would blame either Broughton or his agent for trying to push things!

Or maybe Salford (Noble) don't rate Broughton (as I don't) and want rid.

Article suggests that they want him.

f we let Gardner and Meli go he would be a great replacement. Swift and Makinson battle for the other wing spot

We shouid have replaced Ade and Meli 2/3 years ago. Those two have gone stale and a injection of pace on the wings has been needed for a long time.

It would be nice to have a back three which is a threat ok kick returns unlike our back three we've had recently of Meli, Ade and wello.

I personally think Turner is going to develop into a quality player. He is definately a step up on shenton already. He still needs to work on his defence but he has been solid in attack (the few times we have actually got the ball wide to him).
