Fages : Mon Jun 08, 2015 11:43 am  

Unsettled at Salford. Koukash wants big money for him, but it must surely be part of his media rant. Apparently St Helens and Catalans in for him, but I remember we were interested a while back.

Could we make the move? Imo he is a perfect option for us. Wood and Leeming share hooking duties. Ellis and Robbo are contracted, but if we don't act are we going to fall behind sticking with players that aren't currently doing the job for the next 2 years...?

Cant see it. But yes would be nice to partner brough.

Catalans prob his preferred choice to replace carney maybe?!

Re: Fages : Mon Jun 08, 2015 3:11 pm  

I would like him to partner and maybe then take over from brough but can we afford to buy him?

Re: Fages : Mon Jun 08, 2015 5:47 pm  

Eloi Pelissier could be an option, 23 year old player who is currently unhappy and looking to leave Catalans. Best stats in the league for a hooker this season relative to minutes played.

I hate that sneaky conniving little sod but, he is just the kind of player I believe we could use and need at our club!!

Would love to see Eloi join the Giants - really rate him and feel he goes unrecognised by Sky commentators - would be a great addition to the squad. Always enjoy watching him play and a real dangerous runner and has a good scoot from dummy half. As for Fages he will go to Catalans as he is from Perpignan originally.

Thought he had just signed a contract extension with Catalans?

Great player Eloi, would love to have him and Fages. Can't see it with the current players and the contracts they have.

Re: Fages : Tue Jun 09, 2015 11:00 am  

We can dream, he's a class half back - Brough apart we don't sign those !!

My instant thought when I heard Fages was looking to move was that the club should look to get him.

Superb player. Not worth the £700k that idiot Koukash is after to get him now. I suggest signing him for nothing next year!

We need another half! Unfortunately the Ellis plan hasn't worked yet and Kyle wood is good but not at a point where he could run the show. We need two halves that work together but if required could take the lead.
Fages is a good player but competition will be high for him.
How about sammut? He looked great in a so so crusaders side and ripped us apart when playing for Bradford. If he was willing to put in the graft he could be the extra bit we need in attacking flair
