You know this for sure do you? the only thing which seemed obvious was that Matteson did not rate him that much hence him signing for Salford, who obviously rate him more highly and presumably because of that will have given him an increase in salary which go hand in hand.

I think its quite obvious, because if the club offered him what he thought he was worth, he would have accepted it surely??

Surely he is worth more than Clayton.

Its nothing at all to do with money, its to do with the fact that TM told Boyle he wouldn’t be playing much first team rugby next year, so he felt he had to move for the benefit of his career.

As Pyeman alluded to I think it was more a case that McRae will have offered him a regular spot in the side whereas TM could or would not do that if he thought that he was well down the pecking order and for that reason mainly he has probably chosen Salford first.

Like i've said before, He didn't turn down a contract because he thought he was worth more etc, He was never even offered a contract.
That is from the Horses mouth.
Good luck Ryan mate

I'd rather have Boyle playing out of position than retain Clayton. An absolute joke if it's confirmed we've retained Clayton
