I noticed McDonnell was sniffing around every time Sav was running into space, if Sav can run a bit wider then our backs should see the chance of more breaks in open play.

His strength for a young lad is unreal. Most forwards his age just about hold his own but Sav does more than hold his own.

Long term deal is what's needed but I think everyone knows he will End up in the NRL at some point. I just hope we get few years out of him yet.

With Greenwood and Vea back and barring no injuries we'll have an absolute pile-driver of a pack for the playoffs.

20 year old kid throwing Wigan's forwards around like rag dolls. Unreal potential.

The has been a offer on the table for past 4 month which hasn't been signed (or wasn't end of last week). He was back in wirh saints last week to discuss as saints need to know if he's here next year or we look elsewhere. I also heard his agent had spoken to another club in SL.

However, somebody on here posted he'd now signed a long term deal so maybe the meeting was good and maybe the new marque rule has free some extra cash up.

If you look back at his best displays, they have been agsinst the better teams. His best performance for me was at Magic agsinst the wolves. We was on the back foot when he came on and he gave us go forward.

His other top games was leeds (home), Widnes (away) and then wigan last night.

Wasn't used as much as he should have been last night. Only came on really because jones took a knock.

Give him what he wants and put your feet up for a big future Saints.

If its the Doctor.s Club bid starts from £700k.

Looked class last night. Footwork, speed and power. I do love a good LF who can play like that. Don't like the whole third prop stuff. Against my best wishes, get the lad signed up, he's a real talent.

He had a superb game last night. His footwork as he approached the tackle was excellent. He caused Wigan more problems than any other Saints forward. he seems to have shed a bit of weight which has helped his mobility.

Get him hitched to a career minded st Helens lass.

Works wonders better than any contract.

He was superb last night. Really took it to Wigan. That play where he threw off 3 Goons like the Hulk was fantastic.

But the fact that he was so fresh when he did come on meant that his impact was greater.

Really hope we can get the big chap tied to a long term deal. He has a huge future ahead of him.

Post on Redvee mentions a rumour Savelio has signed for Warrington. That would certainly be a big FU to the club after all they have done over the past few years. Hopefully just agent talk.

I'd be gutted if this were true. He is such a fantastic prospect and losing him to them would be hard to face. To those in the know, why? Money? If so, the decision to give Matty Dawson another deal looks rather daft, he could have had that money. With Jones also departing, it would be a worry. With Mose also rumoured to be off, our strength in depth in the pack will disappear overnight.

I'd be so annoyed if he went. What a kick in the teeth that would be. He lives in Warrington though doesn't he?

He'll be in the NRL soon anyway. Would just use the wolfs as a stepping stone like Clarke has tried to maybe?

One of his best mates Joe Grimes is telling evryone that Andre has indeed signed for Warrington. Probably the reason he was left out last week. If true i'm gutted.

Not happy with that, if true.

Sounds like McManus or Rush have ballsed up spectacularly here. The suggestion being put about is that Warrington offered him a lot more than we did. If this is true WTF are we playing at ?

Sounds an awful lot like the GF win last season has set us back five or six years and we're back to trying to do it on the cheap. If the rumours are true Warrington have signed Gidley, Lineham, Sandow and Savelio. Wigan have signed Sam Tomkins, why are we shopping at Price Slice?

Tell you what, our pack is going to be garbage next season. A couple of injuries and we'll be up the creek. Mose, Jones and Andre going and only Tasi coming in leaves us way short. That is forgetting the potential Savelio had.

Some of the stuff being said is ridiculous as well. Why should he accept a much lower offer from Saints?

Oh dear. I bit my lip last time. Let's not forget it's still nothing more than rumour...

KC has said there will be 2 or 3 more signings to come. Currently we sit at Jones, Hohaia and Wellens out and Tasi, SMD, Haggerty and another to be announced in. Pretty solid if you ask me. If/ when more leave, I'm sure there will be replacements. Davies, Knowles, and Ashworth will start pushing for spots in the pack, and all have equally good potential at the moment as well, maybe even Levy depending on how he develops. That's on top of the established Wilkin, Vea, Greenwood and Thompson who are already established. It's looking totally awful to me



Savelio is not worth the money of Percival, Thompson and Richards COMBINED. We have a lot of good youngsters coming through and the club shouldn't be held to ransom. No player is bigger than the club - remember Andy Bracek?

Simple because Warrington currently have no juniors who are good enough apart from Currie. If Saints gave Savelio a bumper pay packet then Greenwood etc... would of wanted something similiar. Saints probably offrd Andre a small offer with the promise that after 12 months we check his progress and give him a pay rise.

Saddened, I like you mate but you are incredibly pessimistic.

We've got a great pack for next year. Masoe leaving in my opinion doesn't weaken us at all. He's lazy, and doesn't put a shift in so he can leave for me. We've signed the lad from Salford so that's a positive with hopefully more signings to come. We'll be strong again for next year.

I don't want to slag Savelio off because until it's confirmed then it's just rumours, however, if he has signed for them then good, I don't want players who aren't committed to the shirt. If it was a move to the NRL or to Union then fine, I can understand their desire to prove themselves on that platform...but to move to our rivals down the road for a bit of extra dosh, I don't respect that. I can only imagine that kind of attitude dragging down the mood a bit in dressing room too.

I don't understand the anguish. It's been common knowledge all season that Savelio is leaving.

Admittedly, Warrington would be a surprise. But not if they've decided to offer silly money.

Sav has his heart set on the NRL. But if Wire have lost their marbles it makes sense to milk the silly buggers dry for a couple of years and then go to the NRL.

Big contracts demand big performances. So far Andre has been nothing more than an exciting "bit part" player. It makes no business sense to tie ourselves to someone who a) isn't the finished product and b) is likely to bail for the NRL anyway.

Stop crying, gut up and have the intelligence to realise that if true we've dodged a .50 calbre bullet. Ultimately, any player who quits the champion club for an also ran is not a champion player.

As for Saddened - didn't you throw a similar tantrum when that other star, England International forward (as yet unrecorded), Andy Bracek, took Wire's filthy lucre?
