If it is true (which it appears it is), is this not an example of Salford tapping up players?

I know Wakefield made a complaint that Salford denied, but the fact that an opposition manager is in a hotel with our player is a little bit suspicious. Assuming the club was not aware of this "get together", they should make a complaint to the RFL.

Hope it's not true!!

Wish we could have got Lynch back if we are losing out best prop!

This is a proper rumour ( althought hope it's not true)

Seen in a hotel,even know what coffee they were drinking,can't any of us in here come up with proper rumours

For the record,I think Bullseye is a man in the know

Yes I would like Lynch back! Anybody know how long left on his contract at Hull? Seeing as Hull have signed that barrel of lard Feka Palasomething, maybe just maybe

that gives away the lie. They were at Starbucks - it can't have been coffee

I saw them, they were holding hands - so it must be true!

If this happens I'll be disappointed but if they offer a fair price then I'll say thanks and wish him the best.

(Despite my naughty anagaram elsewhere)

Losing a top prop has happened before with Lynch and Kopczak so it's only par for the course really.

This might be a bit late but I did ask him on twitter if there was any truth he was going to Salford.

His reply? Non at all mate.

That was his reply btw, not that he didn't reply at all

no, that is Stu Fielden.

I hear he has retired sadly, which is a shame because I am sure he could have stiffened up the front row.

Come on ME, you're better than that.

I for one wish we had another Fielden in our team for next year. He was awesome or the Bulls.

Sorry dude.

Don't get it - I knew someone who was with Fielden for quite some time, and she was a woman. Was this a late development?

There were rumours for a long time years ago that Stuart was of another persuasion. There were a few personality traits and mannerisms that did seem to suggest that if I remember correctly.

He's not only with a woman, but I believe he has a child now too, so either the rumours were completely untrue, or he bats for both sides.

Either way, it makes no difference on how good or bad a rugby player he was though, nor does it change that he's a thoroughly nice bloke (nor does it make a difference to anyone else), so all kind of irrelevant.

That's funny, because gay men get erections.

Didn't realise the rumours.

Agree with your last paragraph, by the way!

Looking back at 2013, and preparing for 2014, it's nice to see that on the Super League Stats website, Jarrod Sammut was ranked the 4th most valuable player this season.

If he can become a little more consistent (which may be helped by a stronger pack) he will be our key to acheiving top 8 next season.

Already excited!

It's organised by one stat, in that case tries.

it's nothing to do with value. If you changed it so it was organised by another stat, he wouldn't be in the top ten probably.

More impressive is Curtis Naughton "average" gain, on the same stats site. Nowt like bein top o the league!

He was there to receive advice on how to avoid paying tax on all the lolly.

New signing, sir name begins with H. Lets see if i'm correct

Sir Humphrey Davy? Sir Hugh Walpole?

Tigs you funny guy,was Harry Seacombe a Sir or maybe Harry Corbett and Sooty
