Yep. Might see JJB at prop for a bit tonight, though hopefully Singleton will get plenty of game time.

Not sure about silverwood so far...

Salford have had a couple of lucky knock-on/ball steal calls and a couple of obstructions not given.

Not a bad prediction

We are playing with good speed in attack, but we need to slow them down at the PTB though because they are too, we constantly have a man running back to the 10 when the ball is played,.

Burrow is looking good at leading the team, I know there's 40 to go but perhaps he and Sinfield at halves when available with McGuire missing out?

I'd feel an awful lot better if Burrow took the conversion kicks.... Zaks kicks have got increasingly worse!!

McGuire's not going to be missing out on this showing. I know it's the popular theme to criticise him ATM, but he's looking very dangerous in the oppositions 20m.

One thing is becoming clearer, our back is holding us back.

I rest my case!! :/

Ridiculous decision by Silverwood.

Definition of a wins a win.

Looked poor for last 20 but hung on.

Stevie Ward continues to worry me despite a well taken try....

Ward was looking really good until the first drop, then he let it effect him. I was more worried about Kylie on the back of last week also. Hope it isn't a repeat of last year, new contract in pocket so relax.

Was impressed with Minchela tonight. Showed good potential. Singleton looked good also.

Hall looked way out of it, and a liability for us, and surprisingly no go forward either.

Don't know how they got MOM, as personally all things considered, I would have gone Ablett or JJB.

Yeah Ward got a good try but lost possession twice cheaply, and neither had to do with how he's utilised as a battering ram.

Bit of a strange game to evaluate. We were again sharper in attack compared to 3/4 weeks ago but could've had a better final product. In defence the scramble was reminiscent of the start of the year but the lack of slowing down the PTB was really bad.

Thought we always had enough IF we weren't guilty of too many handling errors.....but we almost were. 12-6 after 63 mins against us I think I read.

As for individuals.

Briscoe shone, perhaps Watkins should just pass to him straight away at times instead of the step first?
Moon again didn't shine.
Walters didn't so much but Minchella I thought went well.
Singleton went well, Peacock not so much, neither Aiton.
Hardaker, even though he couldn't stop the 3rd try he's still so important both in attack and defence, (he stopped one later on that rolled into touch)

Very, very patchy performance. Not sure how Burrow got man-of-the-match - none of our halves shone.

On the positives, Hardaker again saved some blushes with his defence, Briscoe looks to be getting his confidence back (just as Hall is losing his again), Singleton had his best game for ages and thought JJB had a really good all-round game, MoM for me.

Re slowing down the ptb. We've been getting off the tackled player very quickly all season so far, which is why it annoys me in games when the opposition hold down and aren't penalised for it.

Thought Ward did ok, can't remember if one of his "knock-ons" was one of Silverwoods dodgy decisions.
Walters was very good in my opinion, did masses of defence and was often willing to run onto the ball from deep.
JJB very good also.
Peacock superb except for being slow at marker for their last try.

We made a few too many errors (though we got nothing from the ref which didn't help) but I thought overall it was pretty good against a good and enthusiastic Salford side.
