| Quote: Horatio Yed "How much of this Salford revival would the fans attribute to Long?[/quot
The strangest thing is, is that for the 1st time in a long time it actually seems that we have a game plan. I think Vievers & Long compliment each other so well. Long seems to have been given a free license to get the attack into shape and you can tell from the way we move the ball that he has been very influential. The defence also seems to be much improved, man on man tackles are being made rather missed and our sliding defence is looking solid where in the past it's been non existent.
There's still a long way to go but you the signs are promising. Were finally taking advantage of other teams weaknesses. London had a much better pack than us so what do we do? Move the ball out wide at pace and expose their edges. Fantastic game and it's brilliant to come away being disappointed we didn't put 50+ past a team.

| Thought tonight that Patten was head and shoulders above a Salford player, every time we went forward the link included him and I was astounded he didn't get MOM.
Moon going to be a legend, hands like i've not seen in many a year.
The pack were immense, JJ looked like a different player than what everyone was expecting and Feka again looked hungy for the ball and work rather than pies.
A slight down side for me we still need a place kicker and penalty tacker who we can rely on more than DJ, too late this season but a definate investment needs to be made, Wes Naiqama (sorry tipsy and not the best of speller) would do an absolute treat for me.

| Did anyone see what happened to Gibson ? taken off after 20 odd minutes , and didn't come back on ,
Wild dropped back into centres with moon and we had Nero & Gleeson on the wings.
Hope we haven't lost yet another back to injury !
Patten's weaving run in open play for the opening try was worth the admisson on it's own.
two tough games coming up though but full credit to the all players tonight , it was difficult to single out any individual . so they all deserve the plaudits

| Great team spirit was again visibly evident tonight. Our attack at present is the best i've seen in many years watching Salford, thank god no more safety first 'one man rugby' and asking no big questions of our opponents.If the players can Keep this huge effort up Salford will go places. Every player seems to be putting in a huge effort and pulling in the right direction at the moment. Personally i think this squad of players is just starting to realise how much quality they have when they play for each other.
It will be tough in the next couple of games but I really hope this new found attacking confidence, resolute defence, effort and team spirit will not be lost with complacency after a good run

| Fantastic game last night from the lads. I think the team spirit is amazing. Patten had a brilliant game and was definitely MOM for me. I think Wild had some great runs too. It was also great to see how much the lads were up for it. Smith's reaction to his try showed how much it meant and Holdsworth looked excited too. Even though we were 44-12 up we were still watching our positions for kick offs and keeping our concentration.
I'm so proud of the way we've improved our game and love that fact that we keep building on this each week. We've looked at our faults from previous games and have actually worked on it and the results show!
Actually, can anyone recall the last time we won 3 games in a row during Super League, if ever?
Well done Salford. Keep this going!!

| Agree with all above posts, memories of the 70s
Thought the referee was trying to get his pools forecast right, the number of times he penalised us in our 20, he worked hard to get London to score.
Does anyone know the penalty count in the last 20 minutes ?

| RRD, think Sky Sports said it was 2006 when we last won 3 in a row. It's a bl00dy great feeling getting up with a warm glow (no that's not a euphemism!) after a performance like that. We're not a team with big names but that'll do me fine. Every single player looks like they want to die for the shirt & as a fan, that's all I ask for. We've got players in that team who weren't first choice at their previous clubs but they obviously want to repay the faith we've shown in them to give them the opportunity to play. The competition for places seems to have inspired some of our underperformers and we look like a completely different team to the shower of e wecwatched under McRae. The fact that we've had so many injuries but still produced some outstanding performances speaks volumes for the team & coaching staff. PV gives me the impression that he won't stand for excuses (injuries/weather/refs etc) & that's how it should be.
Seriously, I could go on all day, waxing lyrical about the team. I'm proud of every single Reds player on that pitch last night but an extra special mention has to go to Luke Patten. Ok, he's no Gary Broadbent defensively but as an attacking weapon I'm struggling to think of any better fullback (bar Tomkins) in SL at the moment.
And the best thing about last night? I get to go into work on Monday & shove it right up the Wigan & Wire fans that tipped us for the wooden spoon!
Now back to reality! With Catalans, Leeds & Wigan coming up we've got a tough month or so. I'm not expecting miracles against likely top 4 finishers but I hope the lads take the confidence they've built up into these games & compete for the full 80. And as fans let's have some perspective. Let's enjoy the current run & milk it while it lasts but let's not jump straight on the players backs if we do lose a few matches which, let's face it, we're not expected to win.
Alles les Diables Rouges!!!

| Personally see with games coming up against three teams I expect to finish in the top four that the confidence we are taking into them could cause an upset. Doubt many will go to France and win and doubt very much we will but can honestly see us on the stregth of last nights attacking performance troubleing Leeds.

We'll keep Brett Hodgson thanks.
Seriously though, well done Salford and I hope you guys keep it up all season (and that the crowds follow).

| Went last night as a neutral. (Wigan fan) thought it was going to be a real close game after the first 15 mins or so. All of a sudden Salford just opened up and tore broncos apart. Lively passing rugby and finding gaps with ease. Thought Luke Paten stood out as well as the forwards. As we know you can only get time and space when the forwards make it. Well done and like some have said on here don't get on the players backs if you lose a couple. Hope crowds turn up as what I saw last night was entertaining rugby. Good luck for the rest of the season.

| Well done Salford. I have really been impressed with Salford this season and have always had a soft spot for them. I would say Salford are easily the most improved team so far this season and are playing some great rugby. A strong Salford getting good crowds would be great for the game.
