| I do not blame Salford at all for investing heavily in overseas talent. They have to do it. If they did not and everybody else in Super League did, they simply would not compete. You are right to talk of other sports going down the overseas route. The Premiership is even worse for it than Super League. Good luck to you with your imports. Myself and the none Leigh fan Jim Bergerac were simply making a comment on many teams in Super league having to rely on overseas talent to compete. Years ago when Wigan were the only full time outfit in the elite league, they obviously dominated because it was not a level playing field. Similarly, if a Super League team containing eight or so decent Antipodeans takes on a championship side, in theory like you say, they should get a cricket score. Give the championship team eight good Aussies and they would obviously compete. Good luck for the season. I genuinely think you should go better this season. Let's hope so.

When did Wigan go full time, and why do you think they were the only full time club?

Early Nineties, and they were the only full-time club, 'cos all OUR leccy bills were paying their fekkin' wages!!
They obviously weren't generating enough from other revenue streams, as they ended up in the same financial mire as Leigh - were they ended up selling their only tangible asset (CP) to avoid going out of business!!

| Quote: RED LEAGUE "Blame him for what? that game was just a warm up match to clean away the cobwebs and try and test the kids and fringe players, we would of gained absolutely nothing from playing a full strength side and whooping you by 60 why do you think Mcrea let the Oz players have an extra week back home and rest other players also.
I knew before I set off that it would be a weak side but didn't realise until warm up how weak it was.
I say well played to Leigh for the warm up game but don't start getting all giddy like you've just shocked the world.'"
Sore loser if you ask me....

I remember last year when you beat Wigan, You went on like you'd win the Super League, believe what you will but who ever thinks that was a true Salford team that set out to win the game are deluded!
I hope we get you in the CC then we can show you a real rugby game not a training match like we used this fixture as.

| Well if you realise now 'how weak it was' I wouldn't bother about belittling the victor (who also had maybe 3 missing). I'd be more worried about the season to come. A few injuries and you'll be struggling

I’m not worried one bit Matey! i think we'll do just fine this year, And I’m not belittling you it’s just when you have people from this board going on 6 separate forums telling people how you beat a Super League team making us sound worse than we are, it’s called defending your team.

| The result shows Leigh 13 Salford 12, so you still have to prove you will do fine. Obviously because its on so many boards, your team WAS held in higher esteem than usual, a compliment I think. Maybe the players aren't the problem though.

| Quote: RED LEAGUE "Are you really that stupid?
10 first teamers? are you joking? out of our starting 13 we would have for super league we had Matty smith, Jodie broughton, Chris Nero, Wayne Godwin and Steven Wild. so thats 5 first team starters who have never played together before apart from matty smith and jodie broughton the rest are fringe players who make up the squad or reserves even then only matty smith had a full game out of them 5 the rest were only on for 10 20 min spells, we had two players brought in from folly lane on trails, our first team would of been.
1. Luke Patten Gibson
2. Ashley Gibson 65 mins Gleeson
3. Chris Nero 58 mins Chris Nero
4. Mark Henry Adam Clay
5. Jodie broughton 65 mins Jodie Broughton
6. Daniel Holdsworth Stefan Ratchford
7. Matty Smith Matty Smith
8. Ray Cashmere Adam Sidlow
9. Wayne Godwin 30 mins Gareth Owen
10. Feka, Ryan Boyle
11. V. Anderson Jack Spencer
12. Ryan Baily Adam Neil
13. Steven Wild 51 mins Steven Wild
14. Luke Adamson Wayne Godwin
15. Rob Parker Mark Sneyd
16. Stefan Ratchford 80 mins A/n other Academy
17. Lee Jewitt 22 mins A/n other Academy
18. Adam Sidlow 25 mins A/n Other Academy
The players highlighted in red are most likley the 18 every week so we had 5 starters and 3 subs playing from the entire 18 so we had 10 players out, 8 starting and 2 subs, now tell me that we had a full strength team out, by the way ive posted how long each player was on the field for. plus the Green is what 18 was playing yesterday compared to the strongest 18.'"
Ryan Bailey? That signing went under the radar, didn't it?

You not understanding me lad? Rob parker, Luke Adamson, Luke Patten, Vinnie Anderson, Feka, Phil Bailey, Mark Henry, Dainel Holdsworth, Ray Cashmere didn’t play so that’s prob half of our salary cap not playing the game so how can you come out with that comment!
