Would be a decent signing. Hardworking forward. Not as big as Cashmere but runs on to the ball at pace which I would hope he continued to do if he came. Has seen a fair amount of game time this year due to the high number of injuries at Souths.

Pack up your troubles in your old kitbag and...................................

After the scramble to sign journeymen Aussies who dont count on the quota I wonder if there will be anyone interested in signing any of the welsh lads who have come through their system.



Lloyd White looks like a player with potential, Gil Dudson has size and is a strong runner and Eliott Kear could be worth a look. Ive only seen bits of them but salary wise they wouldnt be demanding a fortune.



Mcpherson has stepped up for Souths this year with long term injuries to Asotasi, Burgess and others. Wholehearted player, reminds me a little of Rutgerson in attitude.

I said this myself, we have a long history of bringing in some wonderful Welsh talent and I'd love to see us take a punt on a couple of thier youngsters, did say I'd like to see Thomas playing at the new ground as that would be wonderful publicity and you'd think a big household name like that would be self financing.

Signing Gareth Thomas would have zero impact on the people of Salford - it worked (briefly) for a team in Wales because he's a star there but he means very little in Salford; if anything locally, he'd raise awareness of the club to the gay community.

Increased media coverage though maybe? (especially with the hoards off BBC rah-rahs begrudgingly moving north?!) Pretty sure Thomas with some of his 'pretty' rugby playing mates (stunners like Broughton and Gibson) would go down well in the village though - maybe Barton could be a draw for the pink pound?!?
