Hicks the ref for this one

Giants by 20, but, banana skin 1 from 4, Reds beat us every year, this is not the time for our annual c--k up

Bookies going giants -16

doesnt look like salford will have a new coach in place come friday which is good for us!

Mullally in for Patrick the only change from last weeks team... aspinall added to the 19 too.

gone for salford with a 16 point start with bookies, they will be wanting to impress with the new coach soon to be announced, either way ill be happy

will be coming up against a couple of old boys in stephen wild and darryl griffin - two great servants for us too i might add!

I just know we are gonna mess this one up

Looks like Brough needs to get some niggles sorted, very worried what happens if he doesn't play. Would love to see the young Half back they promoted get some game time this Easter

Is there a decent chance Brough will be rested? Don't want to put him in my team then not play!

Easter. A pivotal time of year in terms of our recent history. I was at Crusaders, I was at Salford. Both memorable for the wrong reasons. The Crusaders game in particular we looked completely shattered. It was a warm day but even so. I don't think it'll be quite as warm this year though eh!

We need to win GF & EM to make a statement and if we play to our potential we should be winning both.

As it stands he will play. Anderson stated he picked up a couple of knocks against wire but is good to go. And brough has said he is going to be leading the easter challenge himself. So looking good on the brough front.

Sounds good, Thanks.

so gaskell plays for salford on friday...big boost for them

Last chance saloon for him as far a Super League goes I feel, needs to do what Foster did at Hull and get his career back on track, not sure he will do so but fair play if he proves me wrong.

He's a good player - just like Lunt. Just because brown isn't playing him doesn't necessarily mean he's not up to scratch- we should know more than most!
Gaskell was playing very well and being touted as the next best thing by a range of people- not just those at saints. Think we have missed a trick. I feel in terms of our team we are a half back away from winning silverware.

Has he Lunt's attitude to prove people wrong, the next few months will tell and his attitude will probably dictate where he is next season much more than his ability.
