The absolute cheek of the man - one of the most dross SL signings in recent history. I hear he's tearing it up for the Bulls - glad he's found his level.

A 5 year deal at 33?! Clearly no ambition to be in SL then.

All of that is true and I widely agree. The flip-side however is that Souths are absolute terrible this season, so if you've got a half at your club earning decent money why wouldn't you throw him in a bit more? There's no decent halves combination - the hype around Humphries was short lived and to be honest I don't see him as a long term option for them.

If picked, you'd be looking at Isaah Yeo and Cam Munster being the oldest at 31.

I know the detail - I'm suggesting that drawing conclusions about the car that was being driven and potentially how it was being driven is premature. Whether it was a Lambourghini or Fiesta, a tyre blowout could've caused the same. And seems insensitive to pose 'what is it about PL footballers' like this was some huge risk he was taking - we know nothing beyond what is in the public domain, all of which points to this being a tragic accident rather than anything reckless.

This seems very premature and not really relevant. Until we hear anything to the contrary this sounds like a tragic accident that nobody could've foreseen.

Ah that would make more sense

Where on earth have you got that idea from? He won't be there past this season most likely.

1. The number of tries Salford will score against Warrington not above 2. The number of goals Chris Atkin will score against Huddersfield (conversions, penalties and drop goals) above 3. Leigh's SL points difference for the season following their match against Wigan not above 4. The number of teams based outside Yorkshire winning their game in the Championship this week not above 5. Number of home wins in League 1 this week not above Tie-breaker - How many tries will be scored in total across Super League, Championship and League 1 this week? 128

He was named to start against Storm in Round 16 but fully booted from the whole squad once origin players backed up. Not even like for like either - they did some crazy reshuffle of Koloamatangi to backrow then Aitken who was in the backrow then moved to centre, which meant they could put Wighton at 6. Literally anything to stop them needing to play Dodd. Overall I hope if the rumours are true and they're going to agree to a mutual termination, hopefully there's a gig for him back in SL where he can rebuild his confidence which is no doubt shattered by all this.

I think Wood coming back into the fold is massive ###### off to the NRL. A shame, because regardless of if you was for or against the idea, nobody asked for this.

Actually insane how far down the pecking order he's fallen. He's only made the 17 this week because Latrell isn't in the squad.

I'm hoping that some (in)formal conversations have been had with potential future broadcast/streaming partners (including Sky) suggesting this approach would be appealing to them - otherwise this really is pie in the sky (pun intended) thinking.

Just putting aside all the mentalness(sic) of all this.... Who would you have in SL next season if it's a move to 14? Does the near guarantee of no NRL involvement now render the 'need' for London less urgent? As it stands you'd have to assume Salford won't be a SL team next year - so we're looking for 3 clubs out of a possible 5. If what is been rumoured about IMG is true i'm completely disregarding grading as any kind of benchmark of who may end up in SL. Toulouse - York - Bradford - Oldham - London Unless anybody thinks any other clubs will be interested/considered? Halifax/Widnes?

They’ve sold out their allocation….
