i heard we'd signed a salford player a week n half ago! Broughton the obvious 1 but bit to obvious i thought due to people wishing him for a long time on here. If not i hope its holdsworth!

Well Mcrea said 4 or 5.

West Tigers 2
Wakefield 1
Bradford 2
Salford 1
Castleford 1
Championship 2
Hkr 1

Someones getting numbers their wrong.

Seymour has being told if he can find another club he can leave end of the year and O'meley is off to Salford.

It would appear that the more proffesional culture change is having an impact with some of our old regime players.

What if Seymour doesn't find another club?

Heard were after warriors full back Kevin Locke for nx season

Couldnt see the current Nz fullback coming to super league

If he were available we would be competing with pretty much every NRL club and most of the top teams over here - especially with Hodgson at Warrington and Webb at Leeds probably leaving this year

I cant either, but NZ'ers coming over to SL hasnt seemed to affect their test playing chances like it does for Aussies

Why is everyone saying that Seymour should be leaving? He's been great for us this year, good passing game, strong in defence, and imo is the main reason for our much stronger right-hand side.

It's like playing a hooker at half. He's good in defense but not quite good enough to lead the team around. He'd be great for us if we had a mercurial half to pair him with, but he's just not up to being that main playmaker.

There was only Thomas Leuluai in the NZ squad last season from SL. I doubt we'll see any picked from the UK any time soon with the depth of talent within the NRL.

I dont know for definate but wasnt webb starting fullback and motu tony starting hooker for N.Z when they played in england ?
I agree tho I cant see this one coming off but who would have thought we would have pulled off a coupe like Gareth Ellis maybe our new board and coaching team really do mean business and not wasting good money on rubbish like in the past (Fitzgibbon aside)

Ive got total faith in Pearson n Gentle to pull us up to were we belong

I think changing no7 again would be a terrible decision. Seymour is not the best half-back in the world, but he is consistent and after 4/5 years of injured half backs and new combinations next week, I'd be happy for us to have some stability for next year at least.

I'm also not aware of any better halves being out of contract and available.

Got to keep hold of Gentle for next season first!

Exactly

Agreed, we need to keep some sort of core to the team to work around. I like Seymour, his passing is very good when he's on his game, he tackles very hard and shows plenty of passion. I also expect his game to go to another level when Heremaia is fit.

don't start that one off, it may be the final blow for a few on here

Pg won't be going anywhere, he loves it here, family settled and would quite like to actually stay beyond his 3 years

He's committed to getting the academy right, the future he believes is with the academy but needs a good crop to bring through,even if it means looking further down the m62

Going from his first 6 or so months here, I would be more then pleased with this.

Kosh will love this tweet from James Smailes.

'Speaking of Horne, Peter Gentle has told me today there is every chance Horne will switch from the halves to become FC's new full-back'

James Smailes‏@James_Smailes

If Russell only stays a month I expect Horne will play FB for rest of season, if Russell stays longer Horne will make switch in 2013

So,a new 6 will be signed!!

I think Seymour has been doing a good job since he arrived. he is good in defence and can score the odd try.

Most halfbacks take a while to settle in and i reckon next season he will a lot more dangerous in creating trys

if that is going to be the case i'm surprised we don't play Horne at FB now and give Nicklas/Ellis the extra game time at 6

it may be a good move in the long run as i'd rather we signed a new stand-off than keep Horne there. Rangi Chase would be a good signing

I get the impression a few people will be leaving us because they don't have the work ethic Gentle wants, Ogre being the main culprit.

Also, you have to ask yourself, is Turner going to make way for one of McRae's favourites from Salford?

Only player i would take from Salford is smith or moon
