[iSPOT ON AS EVER "EVERTON1" CHEERS....

Nice to know Stef has made the trip along with his team mates today to Craven Park, and that's before anybody try's to think there's another reason apart from being injured that he's not playing today for the Reds[/i

8-0 up, come on the Reds!

Disappointed to go pointless in the second half?

About 4 weeks out

[iBLOODY HELL That's terrible news...[/i

I wouldn't of minded too much had you gone pointless as well



Thoughts on the game?

The wind blowing North was a major factor in todays win for Rovers. A game where kicking was paramount and while Holdsworth was on form with his he was struggling in the second half due to the strong winds.

Defences were on top but then both sides were missing key attacking players in Blake Green and Steffan Ratchford. I think both players would have made a massive difference today.

Thought Salfords decision to go with the wind behind them in the first half was the wrong choice because as daft as it sounds the second half when you are tired and need that help, running in to the wind is never going to help. Add to that having Michael Dobson attacking you with the wind at his back you are asking for trouble. It is surely easier to defend in the first half when you are fresh? (Think HKR proved this today).

The league positions before this game showed just how evenly matched these two teams are and I fully expected a close game that could go down to the wire.

With the weather conditions and two trips down the M62 in a week I think Salford have a lot to be positive about especially having Steffan back in a couple of rounds. Maybe this season is going to end after Rd 27 but in all honestly that is likely for both clubs playing today.

Another plus point for Salford fans is the performance of Feka, he may not play great minutes but he is a powerhouse that always causes us problems. Difficult to put down and with a bit more support I think he'd have offloaded and created a couple of good chances.

A refreshing change to see such a post.

Well todays game for me all turned on the 40-20 not quite sure who kicked it but it was evident to see as once it was confirmed as a 40-20 all his fellow players ran towards him, pats on the back etc. As for the 1st half it was clear KR were there for the taking! silly mistakes dropping the ball, passing into touch. It was clear to see we was winning the tackle and the ref was giving into to the crowds pleas for pentaltys!!! (this is not a dig at the ref, if the Salford crowd was as passionate we might see a more favourable penalty count!). Second half KR clearly came out with Morgans word ringing there ears however after we survived the 1st ten minute pointless I thought the result was for the taking. After Snyed chip over the top which should of resulted in a try which eventually ened in looked what from the far end a swinging arm in the tackle to ground the Salford player?? Any how the 40-20 proceeded and well the rest.... Same old Salford, credit to KR won a game which they possibly thought they played in a gear below themselves? Plus points for me, Williams on this debut, althought looked like Patten was giving him an ear full at one point! Negative points, same old Salford heads dropping after points scored, it was predictable KR would go on to win after they went in for the 1st time. 2nd negative, Holdsworth as captain, clear can't cut the cloth as Hull scored had hand on shoulders pondering his thoughts while it was left up to 2 - 3 other players to try and gee the team up! Ahh well week off now plenty to Parrish to get his teeth into!
