I wish people wouldn't death ride clubs like Salford. I'd like to see them get through this and thrive without losing players. Its not good for the game if any club gets in strife. Sadly Salford alone amongst the sporting clubs in the area seem to struggle to get backing - Sale and Salford City have owners with relatively deep pockets. Before anyone gets too sanctimonious about the way Salford operate, just remember that our club came close to self-imposed bankruptcy not too long ago.

Keep croft and our first priority is 9

New 1 year deal for Mcdonell

Interesting to see who we go for . This failed move for Jock Madden , the Brisbane halfback , indicates the club wants more cover than Croft, Connor and Sinfield next season. 


Only 1 year for McDonnell is a bit odd but glad he is staying, he?s been good this year

McDonnell signed a 1yr extension 

1 year for McDonnell is interesting, I'd have been happy to see him sign for 2 years, but not a problem. Will be interesting to see what Bentley and the club do. I'd be offering Holroyd 2 years and Gannon 3 years.

In terms of a replacement for Frawley (who must be leaving) if we didn't sign anyone, our 4th choice halfback would probably be either Cam Smith (who I don't think is much of a field kicker, and lacks pace) or Fergus McCormack (who is completely untested at this level). That's a risk and why I think the might go for someone else. Perhaps the club also now see Jack as a future 9 rather than 7 in which case you can expect another decent quality half to be signed.
