[quote="jonh":2bt7lw93]Makin is a good young prop who would be getting games in most SL teams. Hes not the biggest but has a very solid build high work rate and is technically very good in contact both sides of the ball. A slight point of difference is he also has ball playing ability which I think could see him drop in as a good option at 13 too. I may be wrong but I thought 2025 was last year of his contract. I think Chan and Eseh will be available for loan too as it looks like Wigan are making room for a signing to replace Isa.[/quote:2bt7lw93] I think I’d rather be looking at Chan or Eseh personally. At least Eseh has history with the club and it would be nice to see how he has progressed. Ultimately though I don’t think any of these would get in if our main 4 props are fit. With Makin been a potential for 13 perhaps that has brought some interest from trinity. The clubs recruitment has been very good so I’m sure they’ll pick the right player.

We cleared a quota spot for some reason.

[quote="Scarlet Pimpernell":2k23o20q]We cleared a quota spot for some reason.[/quote:2k23o20q] I’m not convinced we cleared a spot with intention of a signing but we do have one like you say and it’s been weeks. I can see it being used if a player of good quality becomes available.

Is there a 'transfer deadline' for this season? Is it like May or something? might have that confused with something else

[quote="God":2ufhkuwa]No[/quote:2ufhkuwa] Feel like this is turning into a game of Guess who …… it’s not Richard with the Bald head and beard?

[quote="upthetrin92":1sw382vf]Is there a 'transfer deadline' for this season? Is it like May or something? might have that confused with something else[/quote:1sw382vf] No it was changed to December so anyone who is out of contract at the end of this season can seek another club.

I think upthetrin is talking about the deadline for signing and registering new players during a season, I believe it is sometime in August.

[quote="REDWHITEANDBLUE":14pi6akg]No it was changed to December so anyone who is out of contract at the end of this season can seek another club.[/quote:14pi6akg] Think original question relates to in season transfer deadline rather than contract renewals?

One thing that has changed in regards potential Salford acquisitions is the fact now Leeds will have cap space to make approaches for players too after the Sivo injury. Given he hasn’t played in a competitive game I believe the full value of his salary will be removed from their cap.

[quote="homme vaste":3ifdjwt1]I think upthetrin is talking about the deadline for signing and registering new players during a season, I believe it is sometime in August.[/quote:3ifdjwt1] Thats what I mean, transfers for signing new payers for this season not the next.

It seems to have all gone quiet, are they hoping that if nowt's said then it'll go away?

[quote="phe13":3k7mzfnv]What is the current situation re Salford? It seems to have all gone quiet, are they hoping that if nowt's said then it'll go away?[/quote:3k7mzfnv] Not sure but it surely has to come to a head sooner rather than later either way.

They think they might have investment now so trying not to sell.

It appears Salford are insistent on holding out to the last minute to get investment. I thought that a condition of the advance was that their finances were looked into and they were told to reduce costs by 800k. They appear to have other ideas. Dangerous game to play. I’ve little sympathy for them and I’m guessing some clubs are probably losing patience.

[quote="Big lads mate":2r56qwl6]100%, probably RFL will bye them out [/quote:2r56qwl6] I’m not sure the RFL will be too thrilled by them either tbh. Wasn’t it the RFL that’s told them to reduce by 800k and Salford appear to have just carried on. That said I’ve really lost interest in the Salford saga.

So new signing has a mullet?

Well looking like we’re about to announce Someone. Not too sure about the Gif that our social team have used on X, looks double of Peter Sutcliffe

[quote="homme vaste":2hncq70q]Thought RFL weren't allowing them to register any player until there cap was down at 1.2mil?[/quote:2hncq70q] The RFL is a poorly structured and run organisation that appears to lurch from one poor decision to the next. Salford have run rings around them and even at this late stage of the saga continue to do so..
