Which fifteen players should we sign to replace them?



3 players with one year options, can only Scotts' being activated, which wouldn't be a bad thing, certainly not one of the worst performers

Easy - we have at least 8 that will step up from Youth/Reserves

then we pick from NRL and The Championship and SL clubs

easy


Look at Tyler Dupree, released by Leeds, season at Widnes in the championship, picked up by Salford so he can prove his worth,now named in the England squad. There are quality players out there who won't break the bank, we just need to be better at finding them, it seems our scouting team just type in 'best of kane evans' on youtube and hand a deal out

To be fair a lot of Salfords strength is the ability at bringing players in that whilst not being world class stars have points to prove are willing to work hard and have the right attitude. At Hull it just seems to have been an easy life for too many players living on past history for too long and that attitude and the lack of desire to graft hard has infected the squad.

I'd have said a few seasons ago that the club wouldn't have needed to make wholesale changes to reset the attitudes etc but its gone on too long and too many have been in and around the club with the wrong work ethics that only a major cull/overhaul will change things.

I don't think its a coincidence either that performances on the field and recruitment has been poor since AP streamlined the club off the field.

Lets face it its not going to be hard improving this current squad, plenty of players out there with the correct mentalitys. Im sure Smith has plenty of contacts and can do thorough research into players characters. Something weve struggled with

We needed someone like Smith five years ago.
I can’t believe a club of our stature, with the fan base it has, has got itself into such a state that the majority of the squad isn’t fit for purpose.

The fact we threw silly money at Reynolds and Evans says it all about the mismanagement of the squad.

We keep getting compared to Wire, but they only brought in half a dozen players this year.

It's easy playing for a club like Salford with no expectation

Despite how bad we are there will always be expectation to do well we're basically like Newcastle or Leeds United in football terms

Salford are like Brentford in football terms

we're told Smith keeps getting offered players by agents, but won't just sign anybody for the sake of it!

put that in google translate and you get

nobody wants are useless, lazy can't be a55ed players!

We badly need an NRL player to take part in the annual do something stupid with a dog, on a social media video or on a night out at a casino and need to come to SL for a lifeline. But we'd have to get rid of Evans first and he'd probs knock his p45 document on!

Morgan Escare has issued a 'come and get me' plea in the media and while I dont want him, as hes very erratic and never seemed to settle at any club, it did remind me that the French season ends soon. Surely theres some big forwards over there who are cheap and would jump at a chance in SL?
