great news

Glad he's got an extra year, and equally glad that it's only a one year extension.

Im happy we have retained the services of big Phil for next season, i hope Mr Simms has other irons in the fire regarding forwards tho

Brill about big Phil
now bring on the rest

Heyup - where's neil72 saying whats wrong with this deal - come on folks every silver lining has a cloud!!

But from me congrats to Big Phil & the club

Got to say this has lifted some of the gloom of the loses we have suffered so far.

For me Phil is an outstanding forward who more than makes his share of the yards and tackles, I honestly don't see why he is not more of a cult figure amongst the fans when we are crying out for one.

Now if we could just get some encourageing news on new signings we could be all looking slightly more positive towards next season than many of us currently are.

Nail. On. Head.

100% happy as he is 100% committed to us.

Good news that someone has that kind of feeling about the club....are you watching Ritchie and Jordan???

As for new signings, I'd like to see a few more lads come thru from the academy and get a go. I think our best player this year has been Ratchford by a long way and I feel that this is the way to go rather than go out and possibly waste some money on players with bigger reps than hearts.

afterall, isn't that what the 3 year licence is all about, bringing home grown talent thru and not doing a Hull and Warrington?

100% committed to Salford but 100% not good enough for SuperLeague.
We've let our best prop go without offering him a new deal and kept Leuluai. Go figure

I don't think it's fair to compare the two players considering we don't know what contracts both players were on. For all we know Stapo could have been on twice the money what Big Phil is being paid? . .and maybe the club want to save some money to allow them to sign somebody else?

I don't see your point about Hull as they have Horne x2, Hall, Yeaman, Lee, Radford, Washbrook, King, Burnett all heavily involved in their first team squad...I'd love a Salford team to have as many local first-teamers as Hull do.

cashmere is still here?

Loved seeing big Phil kissing the badge on his way off the pitch tonight,great news having him on board for next season.Good on ya big man ...a proper red

heard we only offered him a new deal as we have no other option due to other players available and to many of are players going.

Thank you for your positive spin - can I wish you luck in your new job as life coach and personal motivator

Don't think I have much to worry about when I start work as a motivational therapist/facilitation manager. (Life coach.)

NOT "ARE" BUT "OUR"

thanks was tired

, but what i said was from big phil him self. He is pleased to be staying.
