I thought Loan contracts ran till November 1st with NO recall... certainly interesting though

Get in there!

Great news this

good news for us this playing for you in the play offs might bring him up a level when he carrys on his partnership with dan holdsworth next year good luck to him i say

Believe it or not i mentioned this to my dad the other day, but wasn't sure if it is possible to do so due to registering players etc.

Also, to add a bit of coal to the fire, i seem him at Ruskin on Monday, were the other lads were training.

Just wait till St.Conroy see's this Thread he'll explode with joy!

Smith in for Eastmond and give him much needed healing time for the later rounds.

If true of course

Good luck to him. Bit of a shock though, thought Potter would have gone with Lomax and Moore. I have someone to support in the playoffs now

Lomax is apparently injured (again), although not sure how serious.

If Smith does return to Saints, how will it fit with the salary cap?

Presume Salford are still paying his wages

made my day

Just had a text saying RFL have given the thumbs up... the plot thickens

That was already confirmed in the MEN article wasn't it?

Awesome news. I always knew he was the one. We should release Kyle, Johnny and Mr Wheeler. I'm sure McVities would be interested in a deal.

But really, this must mean that Kyle and Johnny aren't going to feature at all in the playoffs.

Maybe we could swap him back for Wheeler & Ellis & we'll throw in Gaskell..

He would be a good option, especially if we are lackingall three of our first choice half-back options. He would be a little unfamiliar with our plays, but his kicking game alone would be a great boost as we were dreadful in this area in the semi against Leeds.

So, let me get this straight. Matty Smith is widely respected at your place?

I never believe anything until I've heard it from Saints... Papers don't always print factual stories

Hes not in the same class as what we have. but he has proved he can do a job. Nothing spectacular but will give us some organisation and a very good kicking game. We have injuries in the halves so he would be better than having to move other players out of position.

Good, solid organising 7. Exactly what we need at the moment.

Less talented than Wheeler/Eastmond/Lomax though, so was let go.

Wish Wheeler/Eastmond/Lomax were half as robust as him though!

playing for free for the love of the club.

Confirmed
