smith staying at Salford plan b josh drinkwater and plan c is who knows

Would love to know.

A) How are they fitting him in under cap as had to move him to us to bring Locke earlier than anticipated and also Dobson coming in has taken a massive chunk of the cap.

B) How they are fitting him in under the quota rule. All of Salford overseas players are Still under contract. unless someone is leaving they cant keep him.

There are rumours on the Salford forum that chase and locke want out

Surely they're not after Paul McShane or Matt Wildie or anyone else sporting such ridiculous chin decoration

When has he said this?

The article in question re unpaid council tax DOES NOT relate to Tim Smith. Tim owns his own house in Darwen.

You obviously have your finger on the pulse at Salford much more than we do, who else could it possibly be?
Lives in Salford Quays.
Lives in a flat.
Loaned out to another team (SL I'm assuming)
Going BACK to Australia, so assuming he's an Aussie.

Seems pretty cut and dried to me, apart from TS having a house elsewhere.

It's Jake Mullaney. I just don’t understand why it says he was loaned out – because to our knowledge has hasn’t been. He has signed for Bradford for 2015 so unless some sort of agreement was made between the clubs to switch Jakes registration to them early I don’t know.

Ok, thanks for that.

Plan C - Kyle Wood ?

PS – I’m happy with a straight swap with Danny Kirmond coming to Salford and Tim Smith joining yourselves. Go on Mr Carter…

Think could speak for everyone saying no to that.

Think now is the time to go back to your own board!

Drinkwater would be a massive gamble and one I would hope we won't take. I would try and go in for Sam Powell at Wigan.

If we was to go for Drinkwater we may as well stick with Siejka! St George fans seem to rate Siejka but not Drinkwater.

Cant see Wigan letting Powell go.

I think we need an older head like Tim Smith
We have the young gun in Godinet.

I'd love Powell but we'd then need a different stand off in my opinion.

Tim Smith is key to us next year. With our big pack and hopefully another addition Tim can make things happen. When forwards go forward Tim is very dangerous. Hes happy at Wakefield; Wakefield are a far better team with him. MR Carter is good friends with Koukash after the ice bucket challenge im sure Mr Koukash could loan him for a full season and they pay all his wages again? Koukash likes Wakefield Smith could be a christmas present from them to us ?
If the game isn't that bent Salford will need Smith off the wage bill.

I'd go for a season long loan of Ryan Hampshire from Wigan.
He's a Wakefield lad who's found himself behind Matty Bowen for another year, he can cover Fullback (which we need) and he can cover a half back spot (which we need).

A full year of Super League would probably be exactly what he needs at this stage and I'm sure it would be seen as being beneficial to Wigan also.

Hampshire would be a fantastic loan signing, not sure if anybody knows yet how loan signings etc are going to work next season.

What do you class as a young gun

Godinet will be 27 in a couple of months, and has been around years.

Ok, Didn't realise he was that old so maybe a bad choice, but a young gun in terms of something to prove and full of energy.
I don't think i'd like to partner a real youngster with Godinet for the whole season at half back.

I would with Smith because he will take the lead and the young (ish) gun can just do his thing.

Whoops a CCJ now been served on Salford by Kooga, is it all starting to crumble ?

Yeah, I know what your saying.I would like to see Smith signed up, but if a deal is not reached I would like us to try and bring in someone who can control a game like he can.

Hope it's almost certain that Tim Smith will be joining us for pre season ....but if not there is Sam Williams at Catalan Dragons who will be behind Todd Carney and maybe looking for a super league club en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Will ... gby_league)
