We were pretty poor on Sunday against Huddersfield. A better team would of beaten us.

My prediction, Hull 32-20 Salford.

I certainly wondered that. I guess there's an argument to say why not bed-in next year's team mates, as long as it does not compromise our performance at this crucial time of the season.

He is only going through the motions in the last weeks so maybe He has been dropped

what is rumoured is that his knee is not good, one of the reasons we didn't offer him a decent contract next year, if that's the case then why play him, hopefully he can get it where he can play this year,

A good summary of the situation.

Salford are a decent side who command respect. The game will be a good test of Radford's tactical coaching credentials. He's done quite well getting the team motivated recently but for me the jury is still out on his tactical coaching ability.
I'd like to see us continually run at Hastings in the defensive line to tire him out and make him less effective in attack. Similarly strategic kicks into the corners on 3rd and 4th tackles before the wingers have retreated will force Evalds to do a lot of work in his own quarter and tire him out.
Hopefully we'll see a polished tactical performance and come away with a valuable win.

Deservedly so IMHO

Eye infection followed by a bout of sickness, so only just back training with the squad.

Washy brought Big Dave down like a giant oak being felled

I now believe there is a MASSIVE amount of motivation to win this match

Indeed, win today and we take 2nd spot outright. These are the games that to be serious contenders we need to win.
I do rate Ian Watson as a coach highly though so not going to be an easy night. What’s he’s done with Salford should be commended with the budget and constant player comings & going’s.

That said we need to get the 2pts tonight.

very important to win today,if we win,we are 2nd.if we lose then major questions need to be asked about our ability to perform at home.it would be 5 wins from 12 at home.

3 errors and a penalty in our own 20,no wonder we struggle to beat teams

our left edge defence is terrible ,thats why next season we need Tuimavave in there.

Entertaining first half and close as you'd expect given 4th v 5th.
