I would imagine that someone could perhaps get a slight [i"Insert injury of the clubs choice here"[/i in training tomorrow

Wait and see on that one

Any chance of another virus?

Wouldn't be a total surprise if ST doesn't play tomorrow.
Salford are a half decent team and even if a full squad were available this is the type of fixture where we are very likely to slip up.
Sometimes adversity can bring out the best in people but not having SOL and Farrell will be a big miss at a time when we need strong leaders,
I hope TT gets extended minutes tomorrow because even though he can drop some real howlers he is one of the few forwards that we have who get us a bit of momentum going. Greg Burke has an ideal platform to show us what he can do instead of being a 5 minute bit player. I'm almost certain young Bretherton will get a place in the 17 so I also hope he can play with a bit of freedom and aggression.
SW has got to get the entire squad to step up a significant standard if we have any chance at all. Has he got the gonnads to let Williams off the leash at long last and let him dictate play more than he does and let Smith get on with organising and kicking.

Mossop on bench

Wot, no Bateman?!

I think he might be on a bench in bradford

I wonder if the club will actually say why Bateman isn't in the squad tonight or just hope that all this just goes away?

Wane did. Just that Bateman was unavailable for selection

Would it matter as long as it did all go away?

I don't expect to hear anything until its been dealt with and finalised. If there is one criticism you could level at the club, its their reluctance to engage with the supporters. There's supposed to have been a regular season game in London - time's running out and yet nothing has been said to say that it wont happen. The date/time of the Easter Monday Fixture was kept under wraps. The changing of the Salford game was rumoured on here before the club announced it. The list goes on and on.

A simple statement that "Due to an incident last Friday, (player) has been suspended and will not be available for selection until (Date)" would have sufficed, yet they make a charade of naming someone in the 19 man squad, then suddenly he becomes unavailable, but SW is unable to explain why he's become unavailable since Wednesday at 2pm when he was available. If the investigation has been concluded, then let everyone know. If it hasn't, he is either suspended and unavailable, or he is not suspended and available.
