DANNY ORR is a target for Salford City Reds next season acording to this mornings Manchester Evening News.

i hope so, he has been playing well this season up to now.

If there's any player I'd like us to sign from Harlequins, it's that Luke Dorn -

he's looked really impressive since his come back from injury and inspired them to two excellent victories. Surely he could inspire our team to great things too...

Would be a good signing imo, I think hed be the perfect partner for Stef at half back with his experience

More chance of winning the lottery than getting Dorn back. Every other team apart from us has seen the best of him, and a very dangerous player on his day



As for Danny Orr, a real grafter and smart with it. Might be gettin on a bit, but worth a shout imo

I wonder why Dorn was rubbish with us??

Always rated him, think would be a great sigining. And agree about him and stef pairing up well, with matty in at hooker?

He's 32 now , spent 4 years at Quins @ 7

decent dependable player though , currently covering hooker role . upside - decent cover whilst one of our homegrown gets a chance , downside - this isn't a stopgap and this is the limit of our ambitions now.

so who's leaving ?

Just about everyone according to many posts on here!

Because our coach at that time tried to get him to play a different game with us than he used to play with Harlequins before he came, and at Castleford after he left us.



The abuse that he used to get from some of the fans before,during and after each match wouldn't have helped either in my opinion.

Ah, the annual "We're going to sign Danny Orr thread".



Wouldn't mind seeing him at the Willows in a similar role to the one Robbie Paul had.



What's his link to the club? Are his family season tickets holders or something??

[i

I think his Dad use to play for the Reds a long time ago.



If my memory serves me right his name was PAUL ORR.



[/i

Cheers James. Knew there was some link. Must've been before my time.

We should have signed him instead of Dorn, 32 now might be on his last legs might be worth a year if he is served on a plate

Slightly worrying that were looking at a half of his age when we have the best half back pairing for many a year for me in Houldsworth and Ratchford, maybe the club already know Ratch is pi$$ed of at being McRae’s bit part player and is off to any of numerous clubs who see is undoubted talent.



I'll rephrase the first sentence EXTREMELY worrying for me.

His Dad Paul Orr did play for the club and his mother comes from Salfod.

Never been a consistent enough player, did well & made his name at Cas, went to Wigan where he never settled, moved on to Quins, been there 4 years & been a mediocre player. You could probably say he has had 10/15 standout games there + his age, WHY go for him?????

[iDanny Orr was real force at Castleford Tigers and when he moved to Wigan things did not goes his way, plus he had a knee inury which did not help his cause one bit.



His move down to Capital saw him recapture some of his old form and I can fully understand him wanting to return back up North now.



Now if he does become a Salford City Reds player next season I think he would be an ideal partner for young Stefan Ratchford at half-back but the problem is Ratchford could be on his way out of the Willows at the end of this season if you believe everything you here these days and the same could also be said for Holdsworth.



Anyway time will tell and if Orr does become a Reds player I for one would wish him all the luck in the world my only regret is that we should have signed him many years agao when he first left Castleford for Wigan.

Why are Salford even contemplating 33 yo players with a History of injuries? Hope its just `paper talk`.



Reg Holdsworth has shown that you get what you pay for. For me instead of having 4/5 Antipodeans I would move for 3 quality - under 30 - TOP players.



For instance - Purdham (although admittedly recently injured) would be a far better bet than Orr.

Not bothered who we sign so long as the person was born down-wind of Seascale. Going from reports on here of players leaving, we need a person with 13 heads, 26 arms (and very fast and strong) as he'll be the only player we have.
