Not bothered getting a ticket yet until we see what's happening with the Salford wages. It's a crazy situation,  with talk going round that they're waiting for another pay day style loan to cover them. 

IF this is true and Salford do no play tommorow then they will have to be expelled from the top division and all results against them season will be null and void and SL will have to have a 11 team SL this year

Love Rugby League saying that RFL have confirmed match limits are in effect this season, which is ludicrous. Junior, especially, is going to have to miss a lot of games now if this is the case, as he only has enough minutes remaining for six full games! We have 15 games left before we even consider play-offs. 


Given that Willie Peters said just the other week that he didn't know if the limits were in effect this season, the RFL can hardly claim they have done a bang up job in terms of communicating this. Faz is also up there in minutes played though, frankly, I think he needs a rest anyway.


 If tonight's match is going ahead I would definitely rest them both, even though we have a paucity of options in the back row. But, in all seriousness, since it's clearly obvious that coaches have been managing their teams as if match limits are not in place, then I think the RFL are going to have to backtrack on this. I try not to get involved in governing-body bashing but this has been appallingly mismanaged.

Was just going to post the same. Going off the maths I saw, if Junior can only play 1600 minutes in a season, he'd be able to play 6 more games in total over the rest of the season! 


In all honesty I get the feeling it'll all blow up, clubs will confirm the RFL haven't bothered letting them know what is actually going on and it'll be kicked down the road. In the meantime, there would seem absolutely no point in playing Nsemba tonight. 

Salford have been payed according to reports

Personally think its a bit tight of us to recall Harvey Makin instead of letting him play for Salford. Unless there are more injuries we're unaware of.

Is he an out and out prop or can he play back row ?

I only know him as a prop

Quite a few changes, Douglas starts, Wardle out, Eckersley centre, Farrimond starts for French (on bench).
Dupree back in, Havard starts 2nd row for Farrell, Nsemba plays, Mago Hill McDermott make up rest of bench

McDermott's a prop isn't he? I wonder why we pulled Makin back from his loan and then not used him over a younger player.

Strange selection imo & that's outside of them positing two different teams. One on Instagram (stories) has Leeming on the bench and the post on the feed has French? 

Why recall Makin and not okay him?  Why doesn't Farrimond ever get to partner French?
