Vikings Want Sanchez
Posted 16/11/04

Hull Vikings are set to launch a bid to buy Emiliano Sanchez from Glasgow Tigers this week.

Vikings owner Paul Hodder has made no secret of the fact that Poty is high up on their 'wanted' list for 2005 and has stated that he will approach the Tigers promotion at the BSPA conference with a view to doing a deal.

However, rather than loan deal, he would rather buy Sanchez and have him ride as a Hull asset. he is quoted as saying that with the club being on a secure footing they see it as an ideal time to further strengthen their asset base.

Whether Glasgow will be as keen remains to be seen as the Glasgow asset base is hardly extensive at the moment and Poty will surely still be seen as part of the future at Glasgow. He is one of only three Tigers assets who come into the category of riders who could realistically ride in the Premier League next year.
