It’s in League weekly, but it’s only Nosey Parker saying it and he only reads these forums and fekbook etc,and Moley in Aus as mentioned it but yet again he is as reliable as a chocolate fire guard. 2+2=5 springs to mind,but then again if it was on I’d not say no to him,even though I’ve give him plenty on the terrace

There could be some traction in this!! Sale have signed winger Marland Yarde from Harlequins on a 3 year deal. JC will not want to rot in the reserves at Sale. Will we have space under the Cap to pay his probable large Salary.

The reliable Johnny Davidson from the League Express reckons it's a goer.

Re: Rumours : Wed Nov 01, 2017 11:48 am  

we might be the only credible option for him.... If he does come back to league....

He wont return to Wigan for the same reasons he left.
The Salford payday has gone
Saints spent all their money on cladding a few years ago
Leeds dont need him

Agreed, we are probably the best option for a quality winger who wants first team rugby without much competition. He'd be a good fit for us and hopefully he will think we are a good fit for him. Be a great signing for us.

Re: Rumours : Wed Nov 01, 2017 12:12 pm  

Can't he just announce his retirement from RU. then come to us as a freebie ?

I wouldn't want to spend good money on a winger only to see him running around Vikky Park after being dropped following a few iffy performances.

Sale announced the signing of Marland Yarde. It would seem he will be 4th choice now at Sale. He might well come back to League instead of only playing in cup games for Sale.

Re: Rumours : Wed Nov 01, 2017 12:43 pm  

With Sale, Yarde is a (safe-ish) gamble on a quality young international winger who became available mid-season (rare). He wouldn't, for example, have been a panic/replacement buy because Charnley said he wanted out.

However, having signed him, this leaves Sale with these wingers vying for game time (listed in rough pecking order):

Solomona
Yarde
McGuigan
Charnley
Odogwu

Odogwu is a young lad, but a number of fans rate him more than Charnley based on his appearances last season.

The first 3 are all internationals, so Sale would need cover during the Autumn internationals (although Yarde has been left out of the England squad).

I would say (just opinion), that Sale don't "need" to offload Charnley, he's not surplus in any way. I think they're quite happy with their depth of wing options, and happy to keep Josh. I think any decision to leave would rest solely with the lad himself.
