has gibson not played all season anyway?

His best game this season, tbf he's struggled in a poor side so maybe he'll kick on.

I would have kept Littler and Fitzpatrick too. Good squad men and they would have been useful back up. We have signed 7 players but 7 have left so are we going to be any stronger if the injuries kick in.

Maybe the reason we aren't giving littler another season is the fact that we weren't going to offer alker one?

good point jaymc!!perhaps malc might have spat his dummy out a bit if littler had been given another year playing contact lol

With Alker's injury I doubt he would be able to play next season, or any season after that.



Littler tries really hard and played some of his best rugby ever for Salford this season, but the fact remains Gleeson is a centre and Littler is now a make shift second row. I'm affraid, the players coming in simply have more quality than Stu, and if it's a case of losing Littler or Adamson/Sidlow, for me it's got to be Littler.



On a plus, Leo Latu put in some good hits today and looked lively at acting half today, much better than the comments Wakey fans post about him on their board. The same could be said of Gleeson.

could of been the fact that they were playing against the team they've signed for? Coley had his best games against wigan before it was announced he'd signed for them.

I suspect the Wakey fans may feel the same about that rather as we did about Andy Coley when the only decent performance he put in for us in his last season was against Wigan - his new employer!

Seen him on the wing once or twice I'm sure, I mean with Tyrer going you'd think Gibson to the wing, but maybe Gibson to stay playing as a centre and Gleeson to the wing.

Keep Gibson in the centres for me - play Gleeson outside him.



Quality player Gibbo - always makes room for his winger.



I'm more concerned about where Ratchford will play next year - we've got to find a position in the team for the guy week on week - the guys class!!!

Problem is M.Smith and D.Holdsworth seem to of created a decent partnership and I can't McCrea wanting to risk that by playing Ratchford instead on M.Smith at 6 or 7, Ratchford played quality today in FB, I say send Patten back!

ratchford did have a good game at full back today,,,i think we will find ratch playing the same sort of utility role next year,playing where ever needed!
