| Good, tough win with no signs of injury (touch wood) and Leeds/Saints lose! Good to see Mick Monas playing well, we need his intelligence and his game is on point. With Higham back next week we'll be sound.
Would like to see Ratch/Bridge reunited next week. TS will have a headache with team selection.
Just to add, Leeds apparently rested a few big-name players. It's a very good sign in my eyes that we didn't need to do that. Fast ptb's and aggressive defense next week will get the job done.

I think TS was relaxed because he was in a win win situation.
If we had not have won he'd had still been happy to have given all the returnees a run out without injury before next week.

The bloke who operates the Sky graphics for time, had obviously nipped out to "water the horses"

It's happened a few times recently, the Sky timekeeper needs sacking!

To be fair Vespid I think that our team selection and Leeds' team selection were borne out different circumstances. We did rest quite a few and shuffled the team around to give as many players as possible game time for the season's climax.
Great result roll on next week can't wait NTW

When they were going on about those tries not being tries, all I could think was that 24 hours earlier, they were saying that Bowen got downward pressure with just his fingertip, yet Evans had far more than that and they were saying 'no try'.
Sky just don't like giving us credit, and when they do it's through gritted teeth. A rare pleasure to not have to listen to Eddie, Stevo and Phil tonight.

Whilst I've no reason to doubt you Matt according to the Salford board everyone including Sky commentators are against them.
I don't have the 'luxury' of regular Sky Sports viewing, is all this bias really true, or are they just trying to get a bit of controversy into proceedings? They can't be against every team can they, or is anyone going to suggest that if that had been Wigan Leeds Saints then the after match summary would have been different?
Anyway I don't really care to take on being the victim I will leave that to others

| I actually thought McDermott and O'Connor were quite fair as a commentary team, and both agreed that Evans effort was a try and the Cats should have been chalked off for a knock-on/incorrect ptb.
Didn't actually see the Stevo/Hemmings/Wells/Clarke/Carney panto back in the SKY UK portaloo as I was brewing up at half-time and helping myself to a celebratory hob-nob at full-time.

| My first time at Catalans tonight, picked a good one. What a fantastic game. M Monas was immense, as was the crowd, fantastic atmosphere, well done to all.

It's getting the stage of being embarrassing how partisan the Sky team are towards certain clubs. And it their dislike for us is blatantly obvious. I'm lucky enough to watch a lot of NRL games on Premier, and the standard of commentating is far, far superior than the dross we endure.
