"Sounded", I thought you were an uber fan?

Strange one; better second half but not where we need to be in attack and missed the physicality of Ellis, Green and Bowden for me, although Turgut showed up very well. Errors the main concern, I'm not sure that whether due to cold conditions or new combinations. Shuffled the pack a lot in the backs with Connor, Naughton, Michaels all coming on; not sure he knows his first choice 17 now.

On the positive side the starting front row looked good as did Shaul. Some class plays from Sneyd too, short GLD which we got possession from. Glimpses of quality but no real cohesion. Maybe in January that's not that unusual.

Other forms of transport are available...

Oh look another Rovers troll.

Careful PC, we've met before. Anyway, I can confirm that Salford's refreshments fall short of the KCOM standards, just typical stadium catering fare. Tea was PG tips I think as opposed Yorkshire tea at the KCOM. MASSIVE thumbs down from me therefore.

Not ideal but not worried
Salford 3rd game in a row with a full strength team so they'll be well tuned up
Our first really and still missing a big chunk of pack in green Bowden n Ellis
To say how many errors and pens we gifted to concede only a couple more scores is defo 1 positive
So defence is ok. So next week I'd go strong and blitz em and run through our play book to get the attack jump started

Who said that, you expect me to go to a friendly away Salford when we have just had a baby?

I wonder who you are?

Talk about the game and stop being a d&@k.

just dont understand this one preseason game plan for the first team squad.
I would now have all the first team playing at least the first half at Doncaster.
I agree that Radford doesnt actually know his first choice 17 and seems to be trying to find a place for Connor.
What i see is when Kelly is on the field all our attack is on the right side with Talanoa and Griffin seeing very little of the ball.That needs to change otherwise the strength of these two is wasted.

Quite a few sides, play the '6' on the left side, and then the '1', chimes in on the right
side, to provide the extra pivot...

A bit disappointing, that we haven't changed our pivot structure from last season...

Rumour is... Ellis is due to have a scan on his back...

Poor result with nearly a full team playing even if it is just a friendly considering a long pre season, over seas training camp and lots of other friendlies. Could we be going from overdone last year to underdone this year come season start?

Time will tell.

We've all been fans long enough to know that you can't take too much from a friendly. Until it's 17 vs 17, restricted interchanges and something at stake, you really can't use it as much of a marker. Roll on the Wakey game.
