So if we bring in a 2nd grade from Oz to play in front of him and Marsh what we're we buying ? Also if we sign a Big powerful centre to replace Minns, what is the future for him and Salter ? How many can we really expect York to take. We have to commit to some development, and without the luxury of an A team that as to be in the first 17. If our targets are to allow squad rotation ala Tommy Lee, then it's forwards we need given our ageing front row and Bobby Blair.
If we are bringing in younger players who are happy to develop and wait for an opportunity then a centre/winger/fullback type would fit the bill, but wasn't that Butler-Fleming? I think any new perminent signing may result in players been released.
Why would we want to replace Minns a proven SL player? Cover in case he or Heff is injured yes.

That is exactly my point Keith, are we looking for a starting centre, i.e. big powerful strong running NRL type or a player to cover Minns and Heff say someone like Salter.
Stop Pi55ing up my back and telling me it's raining !!!!
Or maybe there will? Robert Lui would be a great signing and with Marwank gone Reds are struggling again. If comes off would be just the quality signing we need. Fast unpredictable skillful tackles well without the stinky attitude.An upgrade on former imports

Stateements mean nothing, if he wants to go it'll be all about the price.
Did Salford not come out with a statement Murdock masla is not for sale.. the only thing is when they say Kr have now moved on and signed another half back. Also des Lawson were did U here we have signed Luke page cos him and mose would strengthen us and sign lui we could be top 6

If the player wants to leave he'll leave regardless of what the club as they don't want a player there who doesn't want to play for the club they'll just hold out for the best price they can get
