No, still quality but we don't need him, if we go big, we need a hb

I am sure if the doc is still in charge of Salford he will be there.

Wants 1 more year at the Sharks so is looking at coming over in 2017. That means he will be 35 in the August of 2017...really how much are you going to get out if him then. That's 2 years away!

We should put our threshold at 31 years max at time of first season.



Haven't the club learnt ewt?



Haven't we as fans learnt ewt?





No disrespect to Gallen or Asotasi excellent NRL history and ability...



But we've seen with Big Roy his late hemisphere development issues, fitness problems and the cost to settle him and his family here, plus saturating his bank account.



IMO Gallen, absolutely not. Trust in our development of youth or if we have to buy, then get an asset not an ageing gamble.

I'd take him this season...but 2017? Love off

Reading the interview a definate no from me. The reason being he says he is good enough for one more year in the NRL, well what good would he be when he came to England,some will say NRL. Is superior to RFL but im not buying that,also is age as some of suggested he will be wsy to old,just wants to come and top his pension up.

That's against the law but I take your point.



Quite apart from the fact that your plan is unlawful, have an arbitrary age cut off would prevent us from signing the likes of Andrew Johns or, say, an Allan Langer or a Cooper Cronk. You can't judge all 31 plus year olds because Roy Asotasi hasn't lived up to expectations. Well, you can, but it's a bad idea.

Anyone see an irony in having a Laithwaite thread and all the good reviews he's getting and having this one...is it 2003?

I think we should be looking to sign players like waterhou......



Then again.. maybe not.

I'll be amazed if he plays for a top team at that age. ....

so widnes then?
