No you are wrong.

You need a balance.


There is no doubt that no-one would like a return to the "Moranesqe" days of just playing for the £££.

However, do you think Hanley would have "played for £0"??

The worry is that we are swinging too much the other way.

do you have the address of any bookie who will take my bet that Salford will finish below Wigan next year..??

Sarcasm isn't easily spotted on here then?




Read my previous posts on the subject and you'll notice a distinct difference in my opinion

It's about improving the first team really. If there are players knocking around in SL who would improve our first team we should be trying to bring them here.

Who do rate as your best player? How much would it take for Moran to sell him to Wigan?

Maybe unlike IL he would turn his nose up at any fee offered for the player but theoretically as contracts are worthless we have enough cash to tempt any club into selling whoever we felt would improve the Wigan first team.

Unfortunately I don't think Mr. Moran is going to troubled by any calls from IL enquiring about players.

He'd be a lot more troubled if a couple of NRL teams started enquiring about Ratchford, Myler, Atkins, Hill etc. though, especially if the players themselves wanted the move.

The salary cap in this country means a player moving from one top SL team to another is unlikely, why would they need to bother? They are already challenging for honours and it is unlikely one team could pay them much more than they are already on.

Exactly, DaveO is, as usual, comparing apples with oranges.
