| Warrior,how could you possibly know that it is a " good call Iestyn "
Maybe we would be 40 up WITH Theo. How do I know.
Read my point,he will not endear himself to the majority of Salford fans.

| Can't remember when we last had 2 away wins on the bounce, especially 2 away wins over the hills.
Still too many points conceded though.

To be honest, MR, I'm just thankful of every two points this season. Avoiding the drop is the biggest thing for us. Progress up the table is second, and play-offs is third.

Wasn't suggesting that dropping Fages was a good shout, all i'm saying is he picked a team to win a game and it looks like he did just that..if you listen to the fans on the message boards then you would lose more than you would win (that's any team not just Salford)

| "If you start listening to the fans, you'll end up with them" - W Bennett. Hahahahahahaha, brilliant.
Quite right. On a completely different issue, asso. football should abolish the off-side rule, it's so negative and spiteful, and increase the length of the pitch to 112m, and have lines in metres not yards, like 10m centre circle, 15m penalty box 7m wide goal, 2.5m high goal and 10m penalty spot, but the 'keeper can move anywhere inside his 5m goal kick box at any time. I might watch it then.

| On a positive note Logan Tomkins had a blinder.
Credit to Harris already as we played with deeper lines and our defence was in the oppo`s faces much quicker.
Pulatea & Tasi outstanding tonight but Meli still a concern.

Tompkins was brilliant, hock gets better and better, and as ive said before meli does some great stuff but could do so much more.

| Harris made the right call to drop Theo. Can we all please remember that Theo is a 19 year old half back, not a hooker. It's a credit to the kid that he can play so well in an alternative position but that doesn't mean it's the right thing to do. Continuing to play Theo at 9 will do him much more harm than good in the long run.
Plus, Tomkins had an outstanding debut.
Ps - how many points should we have scored last night? Once we become much more clinical, someone is going to be on the end of a good hiding.

| What is it with fans on this site and Fages?!?! He is not ready for SL yet, does he have potential? Yes but not now. He needs to improve on his distribution, kicking game and needs to beef up. At the moment, he off plays off the cuff, no structure, he's raw but his game will improve the more mature he becomes. I stint in the championship would do him world of good. The obsession with Fages and meant for me the better prospect Sneyd has gone unnoticed as is now proving his worth at Cas. Sneyd brings a lot more in my opinion and I hope we tie him down on a long term contact. I do think Theo has done a decent job as an impact hooker but he gets targeted to easy. For me we should not of even brought Logan in when the only natural hooker we have is allowed out on loan?
It's cringeworthy to people knocking Harris after one game cos he dropped the blue eyed boy!

I agree with the sentiment. Harris can pick whoever he likes as long as we win. All this "endearing himself to the Salford public" stuff from Lou Kate was as you say, cringe-worthy.

Spot on, especially when it's the right thing to do too.

| Just watched the highlights again and have got to say that Rangi Chase's reverse pass for the last try is one of the best bits of skill I've seen in many years.
We do need to improve our defensive intensity, especially out wide. Tomkins had a good game too. Would like to see him make a more permanent move at some point.

| I thought Tomkins was very good when he came on, plenty of scooting and yards around dummy half which is something we've been missing this season. Once again Rangi was on a different level, everything we do comes off him and if we're to make the 8 then its imperative he stays fit. Hock and Tasi also ran very hard and made good ground forward.
My only concern us the amount of points we're leaking, we need to tighten it up and quickly.

| I thought our defence was much improved, with very few missed tackles. Where we seem to be a bit lacking is in scrambling defence, particularly when an opposition move goes all wrong and they start throwing the ball about in panic. We seem to panic with them. The first try and the Elliot Kear try were examples of this, particularly the Kear one. Why did Meli come chasing infield after him? It was like an Ealing comedy with an old policeman trying to chase some young kid. And where did the rest of the defence go?
Logan Tomkins was outstanding, and I hope this loan deal is with a view to a permanent move. Lots of pace around dummy half, and he always kept the defence guessing. MoM, though, was probably Rangi. That pass for Meli's try was completely unnecessary and completely brilliant. A real highlight. Tim Smith also had his best game for a while, as did quite a few players (Tony Puletua being another).
