Lance to Salford. So is that 6 or 8 halves and fullbacks they will have now????

To be honest I'm too old these days to believe any rumour until it turns out to be the truth. I'm just sharing what I heard and must confess to having a degree of scepticism given the number of HB's they have. They could be using him as an interchange 9 however.

Looks like there will certainly be a significant outflux (is that a word?) from Langtree Park at the end of the season.

Taking a step I think you have to sign a player who is off the radar. There is a lot of interest in Sneyd at the moment which you would expect will attract attention and make Salford think they have a valuable commodity.

Chances are if you can get Sneyd to sign and Salford to release him chances are you are going to pay over the odds for what he is and we have already done that with Michael Shenton. You would hope that the club would we wise and not go for the shiniest diamond in the shop.

There are other players around at the moment that would be worth a punt and we could get a lot more affordable. Wigans signings of Bateman and Sarginson are great example of signing good players out of the spotlight on sensible wages.

Sorry tone is never transferred well in words. I would not doubt that Lance maybe on the move and that Salford may sign him. But they seem a little top heavy in halves.

I would assume that there will be no error this time like 3 years ago, if we let Lance go, then someone else must be lined up to come in.

You've lost me....

Edit: I just re-read your earlier post and got what you mean. Ignore me, long day

Lance to Salford was a rumour at the start of the year, koukash confirmed on twitter that saints were open to enquiries about him, but no terms had been agreed - I'd be surprised if anything has changed, but stranger things have happened.

Rangi the other way? is there anyone we'd actually want if a deal is in place with Salford? I seriously doubt we'd let him walk away to another sl club for free...

Meli or Sa'au would boost our centre options?

I'd take Sau but not meli.

I thought Meli had a further year at Salford?

An injury free on form Turner and Percival is much better.

Injury free Percy and on form Turner aren't common sights.
