Salford away next Sunday £18 standing bought tickets from club today. We should take a few over their. Their now 3rd after a home win against Wigan. They should be looking at minimum 8k for this game other wise no future for super league in Salford.

They won't get 8k, that's an unrealistic figure, today they got 6.5k so somewhere around that region should be expected.

Players will still be feeling the effects of the Easter period. Rangi Chase has been charged from the Good Friday win over Hudds with a dangerous throw which has been given a Grade E which carries a ban of between 4-8 games so looks likely he'll be missing for them (also Weller Hauraki looks likely to be banned so they'll be struggling for personal.)

Locke didn't play today, Chase and Hauraki up in front of the disciplinary panel, Paterson and Lee picked up injuries today too.

Should be a cracking game should we have no call ups to disciplinary, which I don't think we will.

"No future for Super League in Salford"


3rd place says your talking bulls**t

Leeds could be going into this without a key back if rumours are correct. Could be a few weeks before he is back too

Moon? What did he injure? Seemed totally nothing in it at time, until he stayed down.

McDemott says both Moon and Delaney have hurt their ribs but will have to wait and see to what extent....he didn't seem too concerned if that is any indicator.

Don't think so 6.5k for a home game against a local rival. And One of the biggest clubs in the game
That's simply not sustainable for a super league club.

The Hardaker issue is due to be resolved tomorrow...?

Can Golding play on the wing?

I'll be suprised if there's more than 5 or 6k at Salford. It's same day as Man Utd v Man City.

I'd go with:

1. Hardaker
2. Handley
3. Watkins
4. Moon/Keinhorst
5. Hall
6. Sutcliffe
7. McGuire
8. Cuthbertson
9. Aiton
10. Peacock
11. Ablett
12. Delaney/Ward
13. Sinfield

14. Burrow
15. Singleton
16. Ward/Achurch
17. Yates

If Moon isn't available for Salford then right now I'll call (with the trouble of fitting Sinfield back in), that Sutcliffe plays at left centre with Sinfield back in the halves.

Chase isn't likely to be available.

Been charged with a Grade E dangerous throw, so if he manages to get out from under that with a not guilty verdict I'll be amazed.

Looks like they could be one or two more missing for Salford looking at thier board, including their goal kicker Josh Griffin.

Such a shame.

Very disappointed the way they shifted Sutty into centre when moon went off. The kid needs to be playing at 6. We should have put ablett there and played ward/achurch in 2nd row.

Sutty should play 6 at Salford and Sinny should respect his change in roles and stay out of the play making roles a little more. He seemed to phase Sutty out at times. A difficult period now we know Sinny is leaving but we need to give Sutty all the game time at 6 we can.

He only switched for a few minutes then Ablett went to centre.

Yes Sutcliffe and McGuire at half back with Sinfield either at LF or on the bench.
If Moon is injured either Keinhorst or Ablett to centre and leave Hardaker at FB.
We did what we had to do today and stepped it up when we had to.
Still can't see what we gain from having Sinfield, McGuire and Burrow on the pitch at the same time.
All in all some good results going our way this weekend.

I've heard Hall requires surgery on his wrist and might be out for around 10 weeks or so. Is that what you're referring to?

That's what I was told today aswell from a good source high in the club. After moons injury do you think they might delay it now??

If he requires surgery do it now. Get it out the way. 4pts clear. Who would have thunk that? We can beat Salford without him

Yes

I would say get it done now too, as opposed to waiting a few weeks getting a set back and run the risk of missing him for the bigger games later in the year.

Handley has come in for Briscoe and more than held his own so far so no there's reason why another youngster can't come in and do the same.Would be the ideal opportunity to give Golding some game time out of the firing line of FB.

I agree with Bang get it sorted now whilst we have a 4pt cushion and confidence throughout the squad also doing it now it will be much easier for a youngster to come in imo.
