On GOB as a fan who has seen him play more times than Salford fans, you absolutely have to keep him at FB.

Gaz is a very good pro, lovely fella, braver than most players considering his stature, fantastic kicker of the ball and he can put some real snow on those kicks.
Hisipass selection is good, his reading of the game is good, handling and tackling all very good.
Not the quickest lad and not the strongest as you're probably seeing with his kick returns. The other big problem is 'overthink' as i call it, he gets caught a lot with the ball, he isn't the best with limited time and forwards bearing down on him.
This move to FB is a revelation, something that would never happens at Wire as FB is a position that we seem to have too much cover in.
The FB role gives him time to think and that makes his game so much stronger, he only chimes in when he thinks it's right and he's been playing really well at fb.

We gave him a bit of stick at the game, par for the course but very very few wire fans will pan him, we know he has great qualities and potential, he was always a square peg in a round hole at Wire though.

You absolutely have to keep him at FB and i say that as an O'Brien fan not a Salford fan.

Great performance by the boys yesterday and I can now see us putting a little run together - we have a unity Ive not seen in a Salford team for a long time. FLAT STAN, you still think JGriffin isn't worth his slot in the team - that's 5 tries in his last four games....?

I'll give credit and criticism where i think its due. Josh Griffin takes his chances well near the line, that's not the issue, however ALL Castlefords attack went towards Solomona's wing which Sa'u was defending, Castleford hardly used Monaghan's wing hence a quiet day at the office in defence for Josh. My issue with Griffin is his gullibility to over-read a play which Gelling proved and initialized upon in the Wigan game. Castleford simply didn't expliot it they chose to attack Solomona's wing instead. There's definitely improvement to be made and worked upon within Griffins game, to deem otherwise is ignorant.

I'm all for bringing Wilkinson in because I rate him highly enough. However this is not the right time to blood him in yet. I would wait to the challenge cup comes around and pray we get someone from league 1.

This would be a great time to bring in Wilkinson. Tommy Lee has to remain at Hooker for me and put in a 60min shift.

Gareth O'Brian into the halves and Evalds at full back. Logan and Joesph get nowhere near that 19 for me both huge liabilities, rather us play Flanagan at Hooker and bring Jordan Walne, Forster or Andrade onto the bench (Whoever grafts harder in training) this week.

Not getting ahead of ourselves here but after the start we've made we should be going there and getting the two points. They've not won a game and have a lot of injuries. We need a big start again!

I saw a bit of Wilkinson at Rochdale and he did well against a lower league opposition, that on the day gave us a very good run for our money.

Just asking as I don't know much about him, is hooker his natural role?
How good would it be to see a 9 come through the ranks of the Clark or Roby calibre.
