Steve Tyrer signs a 1 year deal : Sat Sep 11, 2010 10:02 am

Good signing, things are looking up a bit.

I dont understand why we need Ropati then as we have Grady and Gardner can play centre also ford is a centre

Re: Steve Tyrer signs a 1 year deal : Sat Sep 11, 2010 1:02 pm  

Ropati has the potential to play SL unlike the others. That's if we are even in for him.

Tyrer is a good player at Championship level, but has been very poor for Salford.

We will have to see how he goes. At this level he is good enough - although for Salford he has been very poor, but that's a side that is clearly not got a lot of cohesion. There's still a good player in there, we just need the right coaching to get it out.

Great signing IMO and just what we need young, enthusiastic, skilful and has played a lot of SL, great kicker too. Wouldn't say been very poor for Salford he's had his moments at both ends and a full season in his favoured spot of centre may help rub a few errors out!

Is this actualy Matt Gardner? As only him himself could describe Gardner as a centre!

Re: Steve Tyrer signs a 1 year deal : Sat Sep 11, 2010 1:13 pm  

He'll be ok for you next year but it doesn't surprise me that its only a one year deal. If he gets coached the right way he can be great but dont be surprised with the number of errors he makes, and watch out for the biggies

Wish him all the best

Good signing for Championship level, a recognised goal kicker too.

1-year deal is a good idea though. I still would like to see Ropati signed too.

Gardener will never be a centre as long as he has a hole in his booty!

Gardner and Grady are not good enough for centres so i would like to sign Ropati. Salford forum says he can be good on his day, so if he gets his confidence i am sure he could be a top signing.
