It’s such a shame Croft is out. Had he been available I think Salford could’ve got the job done but not now. I still think their spirit and class elsewhere will possibly take the game deep but Saints defence will be too good.

Whatever does happen, it’s been a fantastic season for Salford and one you feel they can build from. All their best players are tied down and they’ll add players for next season. It certainly doesn’t feel like that last GF appearance they had, when they knew they were losing a number of their better players after it.

Soz la.

That last quote was from 2 weeks ago.... you know that sometimes things change in life right? Salford have lost their best player and Saints apparently are getting 4 or 5 players back for next week. Given that will give them a huge boost and they have home advantage I think it's reasonable to now change my mind don't you?

Saints will win.

There is not a prayer that Brierley gets banned. It was a professional foul. No contact with the head.

I agree, Tomkins did similar a few weeks ago and no further action was taken, which was the correct decision. I would be surprised if anybody gets banned from Leeds or Salford- the rules seem to have changed.

What would you like him to say?

"Saints are the greatest team ever and we have no right to be on the same field as them. Hopefully I can get some autographs and pictures after the game."

Weirdly I think Salford will beat Saints..

Bloody hope so. After we have already secured our spot fingers crossed. The meltdown would be historic. The excuses would be just as historic.

Saints with no Walmsley is like Wigan with no Bateman average

Not sure what the issue is here but if it helps with the victim mentality going on over there at the minute so be it.

RedVee is funny reading. You've got 3 or 4 sane posters who give a balanced view on both teams form/injuries/chances etc and then it's just a load of "if we can't beat a team like Salford we should just pack in playing now' or "we've got so many injuries the whole universe is against us" posts.

Not sure I want to ever support a team that's so dominant if it turns you into a bit of a nutjob!
