Worryingly it seems to have gone a bit quiet on this one given it was reported a couple of week ago we were 'close' and 'on the verge of signing him'.

Hull Daily Mail paper seems to think he prefers the switch to KR to work with Tim Sheens again.

Good luck to him then, lets hope Mr Price has got irons in the fire for us. I see Wigan signed Hamlin for 2018?

Are Hull KR offering £170k as well? if so then fair enough, otherwise I think Salford would prefer to receive the fee than simply let Ben choose his club?

It doesn't sound like Salford have much ground to dig their heels in. If Ben tells Salford he refuses to go anywhere but HKR, theres not a lot they can do - getting his sizeable salary off the cap and lowering their expenses will be the most important thing, fee or not.

Christ Warrington must be suffering from the Black Plague or something, look if the guys

wish is to go with his old coach then Wire should pull out its that simple. No point us offering most money for a player if his heart is elsewhere, I just don’t think we would get the best out of him. I only want players that want to come here, and before anyone says some will come just for the money I get that to. But in this case it’s not about money even if we have offered more, the guy just wants to go elsewhere.

Assuming it’s true what the Hull Daily Mail says btw.

He's a Wire

Hull KR it is then

Well you've a 50% chance of being right...

Your being generous

Could this be #6 "nailed on"

he might stay at salford

As a Hull KR fan it it gives me hope we may get him every time Duckie posts.

duckie should be sponsored by no more nails.

I'll all go quiet when BMM signing is officially announced.

According to deviltalk B.M.M.does not want to leave for any club.Gives Salford a big financial problem as he just signed a 3 year contract in June.Just got a sponsor for 2018 as well.

Unless you’re seeing something I’m not,it does not say that on the BMM thread,they are going on about Salmon King sponsoring another 2 players next season,they had sponsored BMM for 2017 season,and guys on that forum are taking the way it is said that BMM not being named,well etc etc etc.

Yeah he really didn’t and/or doesn’t want to leave Salford and that’s from the horses mouth itself. Even as a Salford fan i reckon Wire would be a better move for his career and the best chance of winning trophies which he deserves.

According to the league express this week, one of the topics is

There’s an update on Warrington’s pursuit of Salford forward Ben Murdoch-Masila – and it’s good news for Wire fans..

Sounds positive.

Ive just read that myself, fingers crossed

Just read rugby league live in the hulldaily stating BMM imminent signing for Warrington
Stating
Hull KR have given up hope of signing BMM with Warrington about to announce his capture

The Hull DM gets all its info from forum talk, they've had us signing 6 or 7 players from Leigh / Salford and our quota would need to be doubled to take the names mentioned. They've less idea than most on here

To Wire for £170k.

If it weren't for Forums, Facebook and Twitter 95% of Journalists would have nothing to say and what's more they wouldn't know where to start.

Get this one confirmed then happy day’s. If and when this is done and the Roberts, Goodwin and Akoula signings already signed, what if any other spots would we like covered.
