The Interscope South Stand, what’s left of D12 doing pre-match, and Beyoncé sat next to Kath. I could get behind that.

Jacobsan Venture Group who set up the new Company Salford RL on 11th of February have filed today for cessation as majority shareholder - that doesn't look good, I can't see this being sorted before tomorrow when they have to submit their squad

It's a right old mess and horrible for Salford's small but massively loyal support base. I can't see any other scenario than one in which they have to sell players. I see Blease has mentioned we still have an eye on the transfer market. Would not be at all surprised it Watkins pulled on a blue and amber shirt this season.

Beyoncè or Kath?

Jay-Z is much scarier than the sleeve, so take that whatever way you want…

I'd argue that it is. And a comprehensive one at that. Not for any sort of mathematical issues, obviously, but given the current circumstances of both teams, anything other than a vastly improved performance in both offence and defence, and the 2 comp points that will inevitably go with it, would surely set the alarm bells ringing in terms of our ability to compete and demonstrate significant progress, even more than they already are.

Looking at companies house registration. Jacobsan formed last year, very little other information on view. Peculiar indeed, Rowley must be seriously sick of all this uncertainty. Hard enough coaching without this fiasco. Odds on he will be rhinos coach next season, maybe this season.

Mini injury crisis already

Oledski out
Miller still out
Max Simpson injured again and out for 2 months (laughable)
Ned McCormack out for season.
Sinfield out
Littlewood out 2 months

O’Connor might be back.

Well, A$AP Rocky is about to buy Tranmere Rovers, so not only in RL it seems

Matt Shaw seems to think the restriction on salford will be lifted

Fine if there is a change in circumstances in line with the conditions imposed on them. Not at all fine if nothing at all has changed from Saturday, or the changes in circumstances do not warrant the lifting of restrictions as per the original conditions. I trust, for the remaining integrity of the RFL (such as it is) that if they are lifted it is the former.

I think they will be full strength, come out fired up and batter us.
