The one thing this Lui story tells me is that we must have plenty of cap space, as it’s unlikely he would command a salary less than 100k.

He ain't leaving, move on........

Apparently we already have moved on tim has stated in the super league launch that when Salford stated they were cutting their clothe. Kr inquired about several players but was told no. One was lei so now we are waiting on visa before we announce our new signing within next two weeks

Quote ="rebelrobin"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'" Trust me.Waiting for his visa.

I think he said page is waiting visa, yet lui was half back but page a prop

Little sympathy with Salford fans and the coach bleating about our conduct in persuing Lui.Remember when kockrash came in and all the dick waving and lording it about unlimited money and guaranteed success.Lui and Page and we look a fairly complete squad

Don't think Salford can claim any moral high ground here. Sounds like we approached their board through the right channels. Plus Salford were publicly criticised by Huddersfield and us for their handling of the Walne brothers and not letting them train with new clubs per the sports standard.



Lui would add a bit of x factor to the team. His wife tweeted along the lines that she wishes Salford would sell him so who knows if this is the end of this one or not.



Re Page, it looks like he would add something to the team but can't help but think we would be overdone with props and underdone with backrowers.

Well if true about page I think Tim knows what he is doing better then all of us

Trying to sign a rival teams key playmaker a week before the season starts is a little bit underhand, but hardly surprising. Desperate times, desperate measures n all that. /> Luke Page - ran hard & looked aggressive for PNG. If he's any good for you, we'll pick him up in a couple of years anyway.

The HDM only released the story yesterday and the club only made a statement after Salford released their statement in reaction to the HDM story. Its quite sad that you feel the need to come onto our board. Your team are 2 times cup winners and have battled it out at the top of the league for the past couple of years, but you still feel the need to attempt to wind up fans of a newly promoted team who will probably be no threat to your team this season. I guess you're having trouble shaking off that small club mentality. Oh well good luck for the season anyway.

DGM - Explain why trying to sign Lui is underhanded ?? Your club wouldnt stoop so low - would they......

Lui would be a very good signing for you guys, not only would it add a bit more quality to your squad but would also considerably weaken what are currently seen as your relegation rivals.



I remember Wakefield doing something similar a few years ago when they took Sammut and Scruton from Bradford about a week before the season started.. It`s a dog eat dog world, if its within the rules of the game it`s okay for me.

If you get Lui, you'll be real top 8 contenders in my opinion, he's class and there aren't many better than him available. suppose it all depends on how much you're willing to pay. If Marwan had been in charge, I think you'd have a better chance of pulling this one off; the fact that supporters now run the club might mean they're unwilling to part with their best player, especially after losing Ben MM.

Just because the story came out this week, doesn't necessarily mean that is when the offer was submitted 2. But it wouldn't be remotely underhand as I define the term, anyway 3. If we were to do something opportunistic and ruthless, I'd be utterly delighted. Trying to do things the 'right way' as defined by our rivals bought us a world of pain. We need to have come out of that with a more cut-throat attitude. We are here to make life as difficult as possible for our rivals in every possible way, so that we may one day sup on their tears 4. 'Humorously' playing up to the label of arrogance can, when it becomes routine and ritualized, become a mundane reality Apart from that, I completely agree with you.
