Given the issues we've had with morale and team spirit, does nobody else think it just might be a bad idea to sign Carney? Put it this way, if a relationship between two individuals starts with an affair, how long until the same mistake repeats itself?

With the need for unity inside the squad critical to progression next season, it's thanks but no thanks for me. Despite Carney having more impressive strengths on the field, I'd rather went with Monaghan. Just my opinion of course.

Part of the swap agreement is to put Carney on a daily dose of bromide lol

I think Carney will come in as our Marquee signing on the back of the Ashley Madison Sponsorship deal ...

"I'd rather we went for Monaghan"

Some people are more attached to their dogs than their wives

Monaghan or Carney and Johnson on the wings !!
It's no place for a lesson on morality is it ?

It doesn't matter who is on the wings, they wait longer for service than someone ringing HMRC.

I dispute that claim HR, my partner works at HMRC & her team are very prompt.... [size=85yes, she was stood over me as I typed!!!!![/size

Had a very interesting conversation yesterday with a guy I play golf with, he has just come back from holiday with a Salford player and a players agent. He wouldn't divulge names but says that a couple of the people still being chased are very much team players but also crowd pleasers, he also mentioned who the expected new captain will be and I doubt any of us would moan of begrudge him the role.

Come on MR spill the beans if your a self proclaimed man in the know.......JGR doesn't hold back



Kopzac or Flanagan captain

I didn't ask the names as I wouldn't have been told, but I know who the agent is and he has close links to the club. Captain is going to be Tommy Lee, not a world beater but turns up, does himself and the club proud and from my experiences away from the club is a great ambassador and really decent guy.

My other choice was Tommy Lee

, no really I almost put him down I quite like him if he can rediscover the form before he got injured he'll go well for us again next year, like you say seems a good pro.

Just wish Tommy Lee would quit the big shoulder hits then letting player bounce off this or the offload, rather Howarth-esque

Intriguing wording in that article. Former Wests forward, granted permission to 'seek opportunities elsewhere.' With Sheens snapping-up former Wests talent like it's going out of fashion, I wonder if this could be another one on his way?

questionable, Mick Potter was in charge when Gavet was signed to Wests Tigers + the guy has had more clubs than Tiger Woods and such a chequered past he could qualify as a chess master .

Wayne Bennett thought he could use him, but he copped a three week ban in the opening rounds for a shoulder charge , then ruptured is Knee in training whilst he was banned that's taken 9 months to fix ,
Knowing our luck with post op signings ( Steve Rapira ).
would Sheens take that risk ?

Tommy Lee is a great shout for captaincy and would probably be most peoples choice I would assume. Only concern is how often he'll be off the pitch due to spelling with Liam Hood, in comparison someone like Josh Griffin is likely to play 80 minutes.

It sounds like the Carney circus is still on-going. Cas hold the upper hand, if they prefer Vidot over BJB then I imagine we'll try shifting him on to Hull FC who have plenty of cap space after selling Joe Westerman to Warrington for £150k.

Fair shout.

Just crossed my mind rather than looked to closely.

Obviously Bennett thought he was still a prospect , and interestingly signed him as their ' enforcer ' and we'll need a pack leader.
Salford's luck with Kiwi's , ' personalities' & post injury signings hasn't been good.
besides, he looks too much like snoop Dog

Anyone got an idea when we are gonna hear about our next signing or who it will be? We are way behind other teams with recruitment and and this rate with supposed reduced cap and players that have gone, some, glad but are we replacing with quality? I don't know just feel in the dark about whats happening, if weve signed someone let us know we don't have to announce 4! Are we gonna have a team to be in top 8 not challenging for top 8 in it? Rant over. Too many questions and can't get answers, with pre season training starting Nov, we are still recruiting in numbers.

As has been typed on many a thread already, and on other social media outlets, it is Tim Sheens who is deciding on recruitment and nothing will be released until he has finished his business - currently in Australia so be patient.

Being in the dark...I recommend turning a light on



Being a betting man, I'd say firm favourites for Middle 8s again but only my opinion.... for now just chill & enjoy the off season

Perhaps the signings (if any) are not being publicly announced as negotiations are ongoing. See the discussion on BJB here for an instance.

For years we have prayed for a quieter and more dispassionate ste of messages: please allow this to continue.

We can also list (please do not) "highly thought-of players" who, once they put on the red shirt, displayed standards well below the expectation. From the membership brochure: "The Red Devils will no longer be a club for players who see it as a stop off point to their next move. Every single man who pulls on that red jersey will do it for the right reasons ... 2015 is perhaps living proof that you can pack a team with superstars but if you don't have enough workhorses to dig you out of the occasional hole, then yoou are going to come unstuck ... over all we have tried to construct a team - a squad. Something we perhaps could be accused of not having in 2015." Well that's enough for me: the proof of the words will be in February. I'll wait until then.

Wouldn't even have Tommy Lee at the club as hes not SL quality, let alone consider him for captancy???wtf?

Winger/full back signed for you guys we were interested but rejected us to sign for you lot

A Cumbrian youngster or someone else?

Someone else im sure he has played for west tigers reserve grade hence the sheens link
