Our start is massive. If we nail it then we can hopefully put a few issues to bed (poor start last week, confidence, quieten Salford’s following). If we start slow again I doubt we’ll recover.

We have to dominate in the pack and stop their momentum, especially the likes of Josh Jones. Hit them hard and fair, spring off the defensive line, numbers in the tackle and the attacker flat on his back. None of this standing dancing until the referee calls held.

That’s how Saints knocked out our enthusiasm last week, gave us very little time or space to move. We have to be the same with Salford. Do that and we’ll win. Anything less and it’s anyones game.

Theres not much option other than to go with the usual team. Maybe add Sarginson somewhere although i didnt think Hankison was a problem last week so maybe bring Sarginson off the bench to play as an extra forward? Sounds daft but he plays like one anyway taking the hard carries so why not?

If you start moving players around you are not fixing weaknesses just moving them elsewhere and we dont have anybody really better to replace them with. Bringing in Navarette for Clubb sounds nice but hes been poor this year so we might as well just stick with Clubb.

That’s a quite interesting proposal and one which, on the face of it anyway, sounds logical for the reasons stated. I do have the feeling though that if we’re going to switch anyone into the pack it’d be Hankinson.

Navarette or Clubb is like choosing which testicle to be kicked in. I just hope whoever plays brings it and doesn’t go hiding.

Sarginson doesn’t make the team and it’s Flower in for Clubb. Otherwise same team as last weekend.

French and Smithies on the bench again

Started well, haven’t we?! Rattled

A worse start than last week. This is appalling.

Well that first half was truly awful, we have no clue what where doing, no structure what's so ever, shocking kicking game and sh*t forwards being battered again

Can only get better
