If rumours are to be believed they are broke. Apparently their next signing announcement is Gareth Haggerty.

Funny you should say that, but a Saints fan told me the same (being skint) a couple of weeks ago. At the time I just thought it was an excuse, but who knows

They will have a good chunk of wage after releasing Cayless...i fully expect them to announce a top signing also

You think he was on a big wage?
If they have a 'good chunk of wage' free why are they signing Fozzard?

By the sounds of things they can't afford to sign too many big name players.

I don't actually think they need to mind. They'll add a couple of workhorse props to help out Graham, Fa'savalau and Puleutua and with Soliola coming in at left centre that will improve them.

They'll be top 3 next season yet again.

Cant see how he was out.

Current starting prop for NZ when they signed him..rumours of brisbane and melbourne wanting him..but decided to come to sunny england


I'm not saying he was on huge fielden/king wage..but he wouldnt have come for peanuts

Saints have enough to get top 4 again next season because so many teams are average!

Hull KR and Warrington are the teams to watch next year.

I think Wakefield could possibly trouble a couple of teams as well, think it all depends on if they can keep brough or at least replace him with someone decent.

They always slow down towards the end and I don't see how that will change really, if they stay injury free all season then could go really well but they have no strength in deapth like teams around them.

Warrington, Saints and Leeds will be the top three next year.
Not in any particular order

I would agree but I also think like this year Huddersfield will be up there as well.

Where we will end up I don't know but I doubt it'll be great with are current squad.

Leeds
St Helens
Warrington
Wigan
Hull KR
Huddersfield
Bradford
Hull
Catalans
Castleford
Wakefield
Harlequins
Salford
Celtic

That's how I think it will be next year.


Stanley Gene could be banned for game next weekend.

Huddersfield will continue to progress next year imo.

Fa'alongo, Gilmour and Drew are good signings for them and i wouldn't be suprised if they add another player or 2 yet.

Aren't they rumoured to be after Brough too?

They've swapped that for Fozzard. Times must be hard at Saints.

Is that one still going round?

There were but it seems to have gone abit quiet.

That would be a top signing for them.

Top 4 again next season imo.

Hes already signed apparently

Where does that leave Robinson?

Cleaning Brough's boots.

They need a SO for next year, so I'm thinking one of them will have to fill that gap.

No he has not!!

They have signed Grix to play 6 though by all accounts.

Brough is under contract for next year and is in discussions about extending further, but he will be at wakey next year....and playing behind a monster pack!

moving to hooker if/when Moore goes back to saints.

They've signed Drew and already have a fine young hooker in Lunt and an international hooker/backrower in Faiumi(sp).

I think the signing of Drew may have been because they've missed out on Brough.

Fa'longo won't be arriving, no point even trying for a work permit after he was sacked for knocking out his coach, they have cctv evidence of the attack.
