Leo-Latu's a poor signing in my opinion, especially as a No 1 hooker.
OK off the bench to provide a few pacey runs from dummy half but he reminds me a little of Dennis Moran - can come up with some decent individual plays but he can't read the game at all. You wouldn't rely on him to put on the right plays at the right time. Add to that dodgy handling skills and very poor discipline and Salford will be taking a big step backwards signing him to replace Alker.

That's IF he's No 1 hooker. Strong rumours suggest he's not.
Bang on, the team's shaping up for next year. A decent coach and they look a tidy side.
Doubt we're going to get rid of McCrea to be honest, just hope he has a good year together and tells the players to play freely, aggressive and more attacking instead of the 5 drives and kick.
