Paul Johnson the prop went from looking a decent prospect with us, to Wakefield and most recently Widnes but not heard about him in a while?

Did well at Wakefield then went to Hull.

Why? Do you think this is normal / acceptable behavior for a rugby "star" or otherwise?

FTR was a massive Scott fan until he went AWOL with his senses and I'm pleased he is doing really well at his current club Wakefield. He says his wild days are behind him and I hope they are.

Ant Walker is at Wakefield but not getting a look in currently.

I think he's been injured.

Ant is a good player, he would be worth another go. If he works cheap then he would be good squad fodder.

We have a small army of ex players at Rochdale. Lewis Gailbraith, Danny Yates, Warren Thompson, Jordan Case, James Tilley, Alex McClurg all played in their last game while Gaz Langley has pulled on a shirt for them in the last year. Warren Thompson never got offered a first team contract but seemed a good player.

Mile Greenwood has had a good career at Fax. Carl Ashall is at Barrow (never understood why he never had a pro contact), Carl Forber is at Workington, Connor Dwyer is at Swinton I think, Tommy Johnson is at Crusaders.

Where is Paul Johnson these days? Same for Dom Speakman?

Even though none of these players are losses to the club it is good that Saints have produced so many professional standard players over the last decade.

Speakman played for Dewsbury vs Wigan this afternoon.

Had a broken wrist I think, but was shaping up nicely.

Scott Moore is class but still very volatile, he suits a maverik club like us but I can see why he'd struggle in a bigger environment.

Ashurst is quality not sure why you let him go.

Yates is a decent squad member.

Think that's it for our Saints contingent, I'm happy to keep them all at BV.

He was a real star at Wakefield then Hull snapped him up but that didn't work for him and I think he's at Whitehaven now.
