So the update says all back for the season start.Good news.

Hoping our international players don't get injured, but seeing that it's Bennett in charge, they probably won't get a game.

I also hear Feki will be with us at some point in November, so everything's looking good at the minute.

Not really, Jnr won’t be, nor foster.
Junior is a massive part of our pack.
Instead of in detail Injury update I’d much prefer a ‘rebuild and analysis of squad is underway’ type message,

Well I can see the rebuild taking place already. Some enforced some not.

We have some money in the pot if we need it and the board haven't been stopping us get the right players. Some don't pay off some do.

But we've lost, all bar gale, players who wouldn't have been in the starting 17 if everyone was fit. But gained Feki, Griffin. Richardson (when announced), who should be in the 17.

In regards Foster and junior they may be ready for the start of the season but will go into a mini pre season, unless we get another horrific injury list.

From where I’m sat, there isn’t anything positive happening to push us into a top 4 team again.

We desperately need a full shake up and new blood brought in but I genuinely fear the quality we need will not be acquired by Wells.

The last thing we need is him bringing in another Watts. Sorry for the sarcasm.

Can we actually credit Wells with bringing in Watts though? If Liams version of how it happened is to be believed Jamie Ellis is the one who instigated it?!

Salford showed this year it's not all about the big signings!! They have maybe 2 or 3 top players.

I believe if we can stay reasonably injury free we will make play offs.

Could be tough next year though. Saints, Wigan and Wire all got a strong squad next year as well as maybe Leeds, Hull and who knows with Catalan and Toronto.

Salford had outstanding players in the pivotal positions we didn't and wont again next year.

a few of our players are in the twilight of their rugby c arrears long contracts too older players how ever good a servant to the club they have been, to me is not a good idea

Spot on sharlo

Nobody is after a glittering 1-17 but we need quality players in important positions.

I think you'll find if the club instigated the talking to of a contracted player we'd be in trouble. However, Wells conducts the process once a fee is decided.
