Keep up Dave
Turgut is seen by our coaching staff now as a centre.
Sorry i just dont rate Yeaman although as said his form this year has been better.
The younger lads like Turgut and Logan will have another body building pre season and should be given a chance rather then keeping Yeaman for another season

| very pleased with this signing always a player I look to when putting my first try bet down when Salford are playing, he scores a lot of points for them big strong and plenty of pace just what we needed, with Feka, Price, Yemo, Whiting, Dean, Michaels, all possibly going at the end of this season there should be plenty of room in the cap even to retain Yemo if required which on current form I would do he was suppose to challenge for back row this year anyway now Whiting has gone he maybe needed there next year anyway, I would wait 6 weeks before making our mind up on Carlos as a stand off see how he develops he could be fantastic and just what we need

Supporter criticises player who's leaving his club, what a shock.
Martyn Sadler named Griffin in a team of uncapped potential England players last week.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I respect your's Dave, but I will disagree here. I feel you are going OTT on this.
Taylor, Watts, Houghton, Ellis, Mini, Shaul, Sneyd have been great for us this year so far.
The rest have done their job well. No one has let the side down.
Yeaman is doing what he should have been doing 10+ years ago. It took him to be left out of the side at the start of the season to start showing this level of performance.
I have cricised Yeaman in the pasted and I have openly praised him this year.
That said, successful sides replace at the right times. yeaman will be 33 before the end of this season. I feel that you personally would cricised the club if we brought in a 33 year old three-quarter from another club.

| Good tough player with experience, nice age to sign a centre especially as we are trying to keep the team/squad healthy.

No it's the fact that we've watched him week in week out for the past two years through two long injury spells as well each year so we know entirely how he operates. Yes his attack is impressive and his try scoring record proves it but his defense has always been poor and for this he's constantly targetted for it just watch the highlights.

| Seems a good addition to the squad for next season. Reports indicate the club want to keep Yeaman for another season, on this seasons form and as long as its not for big bucks I wouldn't complain. Yeaman has had his critics and rightly so over the years but this season he has shown the value he offers and credit to Radford and Co for that.

Maybe great is too strong a word, he has done well and had been very important to the team would be better, look at Talanos form since Yeaman has been with us. Got us back into games a few times with important plays and kept us in it with good defensive reads.
I'd be happy if he stays, but if the club feel it's time to move on I totally understand that too.

| A fairly decent signing for me. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a better centre who's both off-contract and a realistic target.
The three-quarters are shaping up for next year:
Wing: Talanoa, Lancaster, Fonua, Naughton
Centre: Griffin, Tuimavave, Logan
OOC: Michaels & Yeaman
*Champ Manager time* - Providing we've the cap space, I'd be tempted to offer Bonaire's mate another year as backup centre, as I'm not convinced yet by either of the three centres listed that they're up to his standard defensively. If things did go a little pear-shaped for a couple of games, he'd be a good guy to bring in to sure things up. Michaels I'd release.

| Got to say it's refreshing to read a thread where people with differing opinions can argue their cases well without resorting to petty points scoring or abuse, some good stuff on both sides of the argument. Me, I think he'll be a really good signing, has all the attributes to be a fans favourite

| As a Salford fan I'm gutted to see Josh go but whether we like to admit it or not Hull are a bigger club with a much larger fan base and possibly more to offer at this stage of his career. It's a shame though as our current squad has bags of potential and losing the likes of Scott Taylor & Josh to you guys just pegs back our development.Both players have a great attitude and I've no doubt will be great assets to your club. Personally I think Josh could turn into a cracking 2nd row but he does need to improve defensively. If he does that then he'll go a long way
So that's now Holdsworth, Sneyd, Feka, Taylor and Griffin you've poached.... looks like we're now your feeder club rather than Wire's!

It was a light hearted quip mate..... I'm not having a pop! I'm fully aware of the situation with both players. I actually rate all the players you signed from us and have no issues with the way any of them left and genuinely wish them all well. Scott Taylor is a tremendous player and I hope he gets England recognition. Unfortunately England have an abundance of top quality front rowers ATM but he's certainly in that next bracket behind Burgess & Graham and deserves a crack at international level based on his last 18 months form.

| The sad thing for Michaels is that based on overall consistant performance he's done better than all the first pick backs aside from JS. He's the the best defensive back including Yeaman/Shaul and given he played right across the back line without any problems I think he was unlucky to be dropped.
Whilst Yeaman has improved it's a lot easier for the pressure/focus to come off in a winning team, he's lost a yard or two and his go forward is no better or worse than Michaels was. He still pulls out the odd excellent tackle but still completely misses others (as in notgetting there at all) and I honestly still think he doesn't get involved enough,
Fonua is very suspect position wise on his D and only the last month has started to put a shift in but given the extra couple of stone he's carrying from his NRL peak and his dodgy knee at season start (which clearly hindered him) he's never a winger atm hence why shifted inside which defensively is a mistake IMHO.
If we have Fonua AND Griffin as our centres then the inside defenders are going to work extra hard I'm afraid as that will continue to be our weakness. In attack it's looking great.

Taylor's light years ahead of walmsley this year so if the coach picks on form he should definitely be in the England squad.

Agreed! Even though we only had him a season I hope he appreciates the time he had with us. In 5 years time he could look back at that year as being the defining 12 months of his career. He always had ability but for some reason it just never worked out at Wigan. He'll get a great reception when we play you at our place..... I just hope he has a sh*t game as those 2 points might be crucial to our play off aspirations!
