Rooted Red wrote:If DJ is unhappy, get rid of him too. Him and his mate Patten have made it clear throughout the season through various comments that they are not happy with our club.

Smith has gone, Patten is going, DJ needs to make his mind up as well. If Hull FC or anyone wants him, I hope we take a decent fee for him and sign or promote someone who IS committed and WILL perform for us next season.

The last thing we need next year is another 'star' player going through the motions until the next contract comes along.


Slightly unfair comment. You could hardly class any of the players you mentioned as 'going through the motions'.

Losing DJ, if/when it happens will be the crucial time for us. For me, he is the player who makes the team move around the park. Losing the General is also going to be tough as he is definitely the best attacking Fullback around atm. Losing Smith was the lesser of three evils and getting a fee is a real bonus. Losing all three at roughly the same time would be tough for us and some shrewd coaching will be required to find the right replacements for the right price.

Keeping DJ, at least until the end of next season would be the best thing for Salford in the current climate.

The only place DH will be going to in the future is Oz.
Patten will be his agent and they will get a good deal somewhere.
If he does go to someone in the UK then get a whacking fee for him and have players at Salford who want to play for the club.
Sick of hearing about the whinging ba$tards.

I have seen the link to The Sun story which has NOT identified any,or named all,or explained how this anger has manifested itself.
To post on this particular forum about whinging,has to be considered irony at the highest level.
Taking comments on Twitter and merging them with a story in The Sun is ludicrous.
Anyhow,players are entitled to an opinion and there is a majority (of people) who believe it right and proper for a player to go to the highest bidder,seek immediate success,believe the grass is greener etc. so if there is any frustration then it should be directed at the person who has left.
I don't think it is possible for any player to be held against his will.He wanted to leave.He left.

There is nothing stopping him saying goodbye to his former teammates at any time;probably at the DW stadium
in August.

I think DJ has had more drama to contend with over his time with Salford and I believe him to be uber-professional.

Is that based on anything concrete or the same internet rumours that have been going round for weeks?
