Don't understand peoples obsession with age. Josh Griffin is the best backrower we've had at the club in a long time and was the best backrower at FC before he came to us. He looks in great condition, arguably one of the best at this club right now. He has atleast another 2 seasons in the top flight which will help us tick over for some replacements.
I understand were championship right now but you can see his quality just by how much he reads the game, scoring trys and making breaks - he makes it look easy.
Ashurst has been a great servant but doesn't offer us what he used to and I would be looking to replace.
Imagine if we could bring both Batchelors to the club. That would be nice...

A couple of strong players from a team who finished in playoffs could really give us a positive boost. I guess any transfer fee would be welcome and aid Salford too.

The money they have to save isn't all in player contracts but it's a significant number so they are going to have to lose a few.
