The same ref that ruled out a nailed on try for McIlorum with the scores at 16-6? Worst call i've literally even seen.

Overall Alibert was very poor but for both sides and that comes as no suprise.

As for the game It was in the balance for quite a long period but thankfully our strike players like Hock and Tomkins stepped their games up and got us the win.

I didn't think Salford were anywhere near their best tonight which is a shame but i suppose it's a good experince for the younger players to build on. It's great to see so many of them preforming so well and bodes well for the future.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

just did'nt turn up tonight great support though. i honestly think we have got a chance next week because wigan will be concentrating on challenge cup.

Over 1,500 there tonight as well apparently - great effort, just a shame it wasn't closer on the pitch. There was a great atmosphere which would have been even better if the scoreline had been kept closer towards the end.

Should be interesting to see how many are back next week....

Not just that, but we're very inconsistant this year.

In relation to next weeks gane, tonight means absolutely nothing.

I'm sure we'll see a much more improved Salford next Friday.

no complaints beaten by the better side. we couldnt get ourhands on the ball in the second half and didnt look like scoring again ! see you next

Hope you come up with more of the same next week

I think it would be unfair to say Salford did not turn up tonight.

What I liked was the effort. Salford played for the full 80 mins and this showed in the defensive effort. Whenever they do this I'll always stay and applaud.

What I didn't like and what disappointed me was our quality with the ball:
- At least two kicks out on the full;
- the failure to go for goal on two occasions; the first would have put us 8-6 up and the second would have at least brought it back to 10-8;
- Willie Talau unfortunately had a nightmare on attack, he must have dropped the ball at least 3 or 4 times;
- Cashmere continues to disappoint for me, he's nowhere near the standard he was at NQ
- Thought we lacked a little bit of ambition to spread the ball which allowed Wigan to defend with a compressed defence. The only time we spread the ball was straight after half time which nearly resulted in try. Never tried it again for the rest of the game.

Wigan stopped Myler playing and the main problem we had was that the forwards just did not make enough yards.
We were constantly stuck in our own half, in fact I can only think of three other times apart from the try when we actually were in Wigans half.
Great turnout but where will these fans be next week and also the next home game

Everything that could have gone wrong tonight at the JJB did, It's as simple as that.

That's history now and we must look forward to next week back at the JJB.

I hope we have the same official for next week's game on this occasion I am prepaired to give him the benefit of the doubt and I fully expect an improve performance by the man in the middle next Friday.

A great turnout tonight by 1,533 of Reds fans and I hope a lot of them will make the short trip again in seven days time.

The forwards just did not make the breaks so therefore are half backs did not come into it. Maybe next week it might be different.

Great support from Salford come back next week

We were stuck in our own twenty to play football. However when we managed to get out of there we still didnt play any football! Alker was woefully slow and his passes were not direct with players having to stop and take rather than take on the burst.

SMc needs to have players passing flatter and the two props to be pi$$ed off more in `attack`. Must get that ball wider where we pose threats.

Totally agree - he was slow and inaccurate. If you had someone quicker and more elusive at 9 I think it would dramatically change the forwards' effectiveness and increase your yards up the field.

Tremendous support last night. Think people are over reacting to the Coley stuff.

First half was close and if the interception had stuck early in the second half we maybe could have made a real game of it.

The battle was lost in two areas, the forwards didn't make the yardage especially coming out of defense. This was made worse by the number of times Henry, Litter and Wilshere were used for first and second drives. Our forwards also lie far too flat when taking up the ball.

Secondly, If Wigan had have run the ball wide more often they'd have scored sixty!
