Two lads from Salford on one year loans Jon Ford and Will Hope giving us some much needed bodies in a light squad. Speaking to a couple of Oldham fans yesterday it sounds like we have a cracking player in Ford. Highly rated by them www.sheffieldeagles.com/index.ph ... Itemid=490

Is that a formal partnership arrangement?

Season-long loans.

As Griff says Season-long loans

We don't do Dual Reg

Another new signing tomorrow - prop - Sam Burgess having a warm up season prior to moving to kick and clap or - another foriegn johnny!

It's Sam we all know it he said he wanted to play for a true Champion side before he goes over to the dark side

Another signing another Johnny Foreigner - Jordan Burke - must be from the middle east!

Great player young Jordan
Nice to see you stil avoiding dual reg by signing numerous loanees
the moral difference is immeasurable.

Setting aside the sarcasm, for me it was never about dual reg per se. We've had loan signings ever since I can remember and long before that.

It's about the coach knowing who he has available to play in any particular week - not waiting til Friday to see what crumbs the $uperleague side will throw to you. Dual reg is just not a good deal for the junior partner,

They don't get it Griff, there isn't any point even trying to explain.

Eh dear.
