More likely that we don't have a suitable back up for Lunt as faiumu is a loose forward.

Is ferguson ooc at the end of the season, was told by cas fan he is going to kr on a good wage

he is out of contract yes.

and we are meant to have signed chris bailey from london so makes sense.

noticed in today examiner that joel farrell played for underbank at the weekend. has he been released by the giants then???

Ages ago brearley- he went to aus for a few months, sounds like it wasn't for him.

think he would rather go out on the lash rather than be a pro rugby player...

IF SCOTT MOORES TWITTER FEED IS AMYTHING TO GO BY IT DOESNT SOUND LIKE THE TWO ARE MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE IN AUS!

Which is why Rugby players in Australia often make the front page of the papers as well as the back page./ Just look at George Burgess' behaviour recently for an example.

What about Jodie Broughton? sounds a definite signing for us on the Salford board. And where does that leave George and Murphy?

Rumours ???




Brilliant album !!

George is OOC...

if true, great signing, george will be off and murphy maybe full back

ferguson looks set for bradford according the their forum

Can't imagine murphy playing full back. Modern day full back have to be like half backs with a running game. Murphy isnt that type of player. Going to be interesting to see what happens.

he has never had a good run of games at full back though yet.

how about getting eden back!

He's a contracted Hull KR player so not really that easy.

Contract....... You mean like the one he had with us- but shorter??

No point getting Eden back-he can bust a tackle but he makes the same type of errors everyone here is moaning about grix but isn't as good at organising the defence ( see kr points against) and has less of a kicking game. Just be swapping one scapegoat for another.

It doesn't matter who we have at fullback he'd be the scapegoat

Simple as that. Billy Slater would get grief off our lot

How come you two don't get slagged off when standing up for Grix?

I don't know. I'm sure I get slated for other things instead though

That said, Grix had a shocker against Les Cats

He didnt have a flawless game- but then few did-off the top of my head patrick, leroy, jerry, brough and murphy also made howlers he made some bad mistakes but he also made a couple of try saving tackles, put in a couple of really good kicks. I recognise he's not a top class player- but he's a decent hardworking player who won't be costing much and is better than any option we have currently- taking into account the make up of the rest of our squad and the type of player we need at FB. I don't like the fact that SOME people have a go at him for his mistakes but are lax at praising the good stuff he does, and don't lambast others in the team for making similar mistakes- last week he missed a kick and was blasted for it. Murphy did too but no comment and Robbo also missed one and let at least a couple bounce- once over his head and out to give a halfway start- no one got on his back though!

^This.

Grix isn't the best full back in the world but he is far, far from being as bad as some of our fans paint him. True he makes lots of errors but so do Tomkins, Sinfield, Chase etc and I bet we're not paying him anywhere near what those players are on.

Must say I agree with you Jools.
