Abdominal tear. Could be fit for the Hull FC game, but might have to sit that one out too.

Powell as confirmed Ratchford is playing.

The Wrench injury is a worry. Might have been brought back a bit quick to fill in for our shortage on the wing.

Does this look good? Are we going to win? Booked a hotel so getting to town mid afternoon for some early bank
Holiday beers. I’d quite like to enjoy a win.

Thought Ratchford was meant to be out a couple more weeks

50/50 this mate. I recommend the kings head before and after then the feathers if you’re staying up “late”.

We [ishould[/i beat Salford, the bookies think we'll easily beat Salford.

But we've lost five in a row and Salford has been our bogey team in the last five years.

In the last 11 meetings, they've won 7, including 3 of the last 5 at Warrington. There was a game they forfeited in the middle of that but I've not counted it.

In short, we should win, so we'll probably lose.

Wire have a chance of avoiding relegation with a win against a busted Salford team and a bust Hull team. Papering the cracks!

I can’t see another win chance for 3 months following.
The club look to be throwing our eggs into these next 2 games to stem fan opinions and pressure.

As for the future, we have a quota spot, around £100k cap, with options to loan out players if we need. However, a prop signing now won’t save our season, It’s done, A big unit prop might help sneak a couple more of the tighter fixtures into a narrow win, but largely it will highlight how sheer stubborn ruddy mindlessness of employed board level personnel have acted since last season.

Rubber can you just clarify something. Are you saying we ought to have signed a big prop? Do you think our current problems are linked to the lack of a big prop?

Will Ratchford start or be on the bench. If he starts, then I expect Dean to miss out and Ratchford in the halves. We need a win, but I have seen nothing in recent games to inspire any confidence that we'll get one.

I think a clearly said it won’t.

To be fair. I agree we could do with more punch.

listen, he's finally moved on from 'needing a back on the bench in the 2013 GF'

just let this happen.

Don't forget the Ring of Feathers.
