#RED DEVILS:12187.jpg



I can't see us lasting more than 3 years with how the club is being run, this penny watching mentality will kill us off! We were fine the willows as that was our ground we were safe! Now were paying rent at a stadium where we need an average of 8000 or we will struggle! While we have a budget of a championship club we're at risk of dying a slow death! And before people come on saying wilkinson would sell if a buyer was there, well John if your reading this get out there and look for a buyer! Otherwise I can't see us surviving much longer!!

the rugby club was not "owner occupier" at The Willows - the ground was sold some years back to Watson Godliman Homes

In the end it was bad discipline AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!! that cost us that match. 2 needless , stupid , penalties in the dying minutes in front of the sticks was the difference in the scoreline..Changes needed next week otherwise it will be a total embarresment. icon_biggrin.gifEPRESSED:

Owen in for Wagga is a must. We play much better RL with Howarth/Owen from dummy half.

Lets not over react.

We are a loyal bunch us Salford fans. No matter how much we moan we have the odd idiot who says they wont turn up at the next game.

In all honesty though, I have never seen a lesser lack of effort in any game for many years. Very dissapointing.

Feka looks to be back to his form of last season. [ overweight and no impact ]
Mcphearson is too injury prone,same as Wild....We need to have players out there who can at least last the match !!!!!
I have no confidence whatsoever in Pattens defence. He has you holding your breath every time the opposition kick to him. [ although great in attack ]
Gleeson also has no defence, and opposition teams are taking full advantage of our weaknesses.

Owen in for wagga what a load of crap, do you even watch rugby league you blame that performance on wagga selection. Wagga was on 18 mins salford had not 1 attacking play. He smashed every one who come near him, the tackle which gave him concussion he put his head infrount of a props knee to stop him scoring. Tell ya mate you ain't got a clue about rugby.

Think thats the whole point . Owen tends to scoot from dummy half and gain us much needed ground,and penalties for opposition not standing square etc[as in the Hull game which ultimately won us the match in the final minute,] which Wagga doesnt[ maybe hes not fully over his injury ]
Not blaming him solely for that dire display. Just think Owen offers more.
And Ive seen Owen dump some pretty big forwards on their backsides as well.
Maybe the better option would be Owen and Wagga interchanging ???

And also on the Howarth comment, when salford eventually got on top do you even recall 1 run from dummy half???? From quick plays aswell!! No!! Have you seen the shape of the ball from his passing??? I recall 2 salford attacks near wakefields line when he actually passed it over smiths head!

Take your point on owen though he does scoot from dummy half, when he come on as impact against a tiring defense. Wagga starts and does the hard stuff first. Also this is only his 3rd game this season. Fans have the shortest memories, wagga was one of the top performers from last season and got a freak injury in first game. That first 20mins today salford didnt even touch ball so how can wagga scoot, would have Owen done any different??

Max - as Waggas agent you are doing him a disservice. I never suggested Howarth was a scooter - he gets the line moving though. I am not anti Wagga - more pro Owen at the moment as more attacking options come from Owen & Howarth currently.
