Can I move yet?

Been watching this space for a couple of weeks and nothing.

Re: Jack Buchanan : Fri Mar 11, 2016 8:13 am  

I'll dig some info out on Sunday.

Re: Jack Buchanan : Mon Mar 14, 2016 2:14 pm  

Anything?

Re: Jack Buchanan : Tue Mar 15, 2016 8:24 am  

Yes.

Agent got hold of club approx a month ago, telling club that Jack been told he's going to be reserve grade and would be interested in playing for Salford as long as he gets first team footy. He was given an contract extension end of last year however Tigers signed two lads props Ipswich Jets, Jack was 3rd in line. Since they one of those two lads has left for personal family reasons, which has put move of back burner for a while. I'd hazard a guess we'll see the move midseason. Also when agent got in touch we a club, the club was toying about one of our players for a loan to another SL clubs going yhrough an injury crisis.

Like I said watch this space.

Trust Sheens judgement, but not sure how I feel about us being second best. He wasn't prepared to up sticks and move half way across the world 6 months ago when we made him an offer...

That single section above should be enough of a reason not to sign him.
No one should be guaranteed first team football, they need to deserve it by hard work and commitment.

In fairness to him, it's along way to travel just to be sitting on the side... I would like if it looked at more like "signed by Salford as we are sure he is good enough to be guaranteed first-team football".

Re: Jack Buchanan : Tue Mar 15, 2016 5:10 pm  

He's a big lad at 6'-4 and nearly 17 stone only 22/23 don't know how good he is, or if he has pace. Can he tackle ?

Re: Jack Buchanan : Tue Mar 15, 2016 5:48 pm  

Just what we lack at the moment. Impact from the bench which he could provide. Let's hope it's true.

Signed for Widnes on a two year deal...
