Not having made the game because of work, but having seen the game on tv, smith seemed to make a much greater contribution than John
My opinion only though

Happy to stick with Smith, John the jury is still out. Wood was poor last might and i feel he is much more effective at hooker. Is Wildie ready to be a superleague halfback? We certainly haven't got an immediate answer so i'd probably stick with John for a game or two yet.

Agree with you about Smith TRB
Was thinking I had watched a different game to some people.
John OK, hoping he will improve, think there is something there.

Must say we looked better with John on having said that hes nothing special and i do not see the point in bringing this type of player over then hes not much better than the Brits he keeps out.

dont get Agars bench selection Alton plays a full game and he did well but if Wood was on the bench to replace John sorry dont get it you either play the halfback from the start or not also Mellers when Kirkmond or Frankie could cover in the event of a centre being injured Sykes could also cover halfback in the event of injury. for me Johnson should have being on the bench with Ellis

Watching the replay we got 2 or 3 lousy calls that help Salford back into the game but that was a close call just glad to have 2 points

Might buy that with Smith but not with Mellors - I reckon it's because he doesn't trust Sykes who in fairness can implode big style - either way it's a duff decision.

completely agree with all that

You should be peeling spuds and putting the dinner on
