They are a big loss to them but they've got some good depth so let's see how they go.

Never mind they have some good cover, with those 3 players out Wakey should win

The current weather forecast isn’t good for Friday night. Heavy rain particularly around ko time. I don’t know if that’s a benefit or not for Trinity, but if we are good enough on the night we’ make our own luck.

As bad weather is usually a leveller it will probably benefit us.
Despite their injuries Salford will still be hot favourites.

It’s pretty well known that Salford have one of the thinnest squads around, especially in the spine positions. With them also coming off a short turnaround and back to back defeats then this ones there for the taking.

Every little helps, it's certainly a start !

They also have Trinity’s, drop goal winner bogeyman, Sneyd, the times he’s done us whoever he’s played for

They will still have Sio, Lafai, Watkins and Burgess feeding off Sneyd across the backline. That's where we'll struggle to contain them if anywhere.

Big game this.

Win this game and it re-instates some hope assuming Cas don’t win again.

If we don’t beat Salford at home then I think it would be pretty much time to start considering building a very strong Championship team for next season. The games are unfortunately starting to run out and there is no more excuses. If we want to be in the top flight we must win on Friday and continue winning. For me we are looking at 5-6 wins so that’s around 50% or a bit more.

In your dreams 5 to 6 wins could come next year and a few more in the Championship

Despite the dross that we've seen so far, there is no doubt that with Gale pulling the strings, we at least looked to have some tries in us and this has been the major issue throughout the season.
Also, we have to keep on battling.

The fat lady may be getting ready but, she ain't started singing yet !

Not all about attack was there any improvement in the defence .When players like Hood are walking straight back in to the team sums it up were we are to me

Nothing wrong with Hood's defense. He does a lot of work.
My only issue is his speed of distribution and speed of feet if he runs.
Bowes would be the one with larger minutes for me but Hood made 30 tackles. Only Pitts and Battye made more.

I think because he's left on too long he looks tired and can make mistakes.

Salford also has a better head coach.
