[quote="bonaire":gbdtuzb3] Would rather see Westerman given a run than Briscoe[/quote:gbdtuzb3] I’d like to see Westerman get a bit of game time at some point but what’s wrong with Briscoe at centre? I remember watching him years ago in the academy and he was predominantly a centre so knows the position. He’s 34 but still got freakish upper body strength, gets through a load of work and still looks pretty quick for that position. On Friday it also looked like he was using his experience to good effect helping out the much younger Martin, seems a great fit to me.

Very good news , I'm a little surprised its only 2 years and not 3 as he is still only young .

Hope Salford can resolve with the RFL and avoid another terrible situation like last week.

Now they’re saying it’s friends of Kristnan Inu who’ve bought the club? I suppose it does say that though that the request was tabled on the 11th (last Tuesday) and they were still pretty adamant all through the weekend that it was all done and dusted so maybe it’s not as bad as it looks and possibly just a reshuffle of shareholders or whatever. I don’t believe it’s the just the normal RFL incompetence that’s holding this up though something can’t be fully right with it all.

It might just be me being cynical now I've passed 50yrs old but not a lot adds up for me with the Salford takeover and I wonder if its just more delaying tactics.
