I think McDonald would be good but we don't need centres

I trust Powell and Steve Mills if they think they can get Watkins and he’ll improve the squad then that will do for me. A lot of experience was lost when Ashurst went and Watkins would be good value on a 2 year deal. Plus he could also provide cover at centre as it’s a long season and a relatively small squad of 30 players. 43 were used when last in SL.

Yeah we did have 43 but we were desperately trying to stay in Super League, so were loaning players from any club that would lend us any !!

Shorrocks and Watkins would be 2 who I think would really improve our squad.



Shorrocks is a very talented athlete and his ability to cover all positions in the pack apart from Prop along with high level skill set meaning he can also cover 6 would be very useful.



Watkins is just a great pro and he’s become a very good second row as well as his leadership qualities.

Looks to me they are having a sale to bring better players in Thought they were in danger of going bust

and they were selling players to stay afloat ..Stinks to me or am I reading it wrong

No idea where you get that from.

They are being forced into this position.

I’d be very happy with Watkins as a second row option, it would remind me of our McGillvary’s signing last year and has the potential to be a real crowd favourite. He’s also a very good professional, a great lad who’d be good to have around the place



Like a couple of others have said, we could do with another no nonsense, hard nosed, experience and dependable prop but I’m not over sold on any of Salfords front rowers

If Leeds are in for him aswell though it looks like Trinity will be outbid and he’ll go there …

I like Brad Singleton in the right rotation.



Wigan were poor up front when he was there and he did his best to hold the prop rotation together but he’s not that kind of player.



We have on the face of it some decent impact and go forward but if you want a grub and disruptor who will put his head where others don’t then he’s your man, and to be honest we probably lack that type of player.

Singleton was really poor when he played for us on loan. Really didn't want to play for us. I wouldn't want him now.

Why would we be outbid these days?
