Even at this early stage, I think that tackle from Evalds might have won the game for Salford. Cas have looked clueless with the ball until that moment. Brilliant tackle but terrible from Rankin, all he had to do was come back inside.

Cracking game this. Credit to both sides so far, especially Salford.

Commentary has been dreadful, as usual (Barry and Terry mainly). Apparently Daryl Powell is ‘smart coach of the year’ and Terry with his habit of telling us how great a player’s been after they’ve made a mistake. Griffin playing well last week and Jones not being at his best was another good one.

We have been clueless all year without at the time of his injury the best srum half in the league,to get in the 5 has been a massive achievement in my opinion.
Roll on to an injury free next year.

Agreed. If by some miracle we can score 3 plus tries in this 2nd half and win I'm pretty sure we will get battered next week anyway. We have no attack at all. Look clueless in the Salford 20.

Where on earth did stephan rashford get his 80s jacket from?

Nothing else detracts from the lean-to on his conk if you ask me....mesmerising

Mc Shane's short kicking game has been good.

Hats off Salford. Forwards v good. Evalds a star.


Go well next week !

Nearly as good as Liam Watts brain f@rts.

Looking forward to Happy Powells interview.

The Salford players and fans should enjoy themselves tonight. This will be their last easy victory. Next week they will face a serious rugby league team -- either Wigan or St Helens, and that will be the end of the dream.

I don't want to rain on their parade, But next year without Jackson Hastings, Salford will not even make the top five.

Probably not but they're in the mix. Who wouldnhace thought that in Feb? A modest , hardworking , well drilled and determined side.

I don't know, suppose it depends on who they bring in to replace him and to be fair, Salfords recruitment has been top class this season.

It’s a Warrington thing- Paul Cullen had his dog tooth number that sent everybody bozz-eyed

Certainly not me. I thought they'd really struggle once they got some injuries with their lack of depth but they've managed to avoid anything serious and have just looked a really well coached side, with that bit of class you need, plus they've played some excellent RL along the way. Well done Salford.

Remember arthur daley doing a good line in them in minder. The whole of the winchester club had one , seargent chisholm was not amused

Congratulations to Salford, really pleased for their fans...

Haven't had a dream in a long time

Cas fans should be proud of the effort their team has put in this year, considering the club's injury problems.

Well done Salford, was certain they'd finish in the bottom 4. Even when they were doing okay, but then Robert Lui went to Leeds, they just got even better. Hopefully it will be a Saints v Salford final.

Like a bad fart, you resurface again to a chorus of gags and knowing looks.





If we lose next week it doesn't matter to us as Salford fans. We've proved the doubters wrong before the play-offs even started. Every game from the end of the season is a bonus and the fact that we get under your skin brings me great joy.

Happy Thursday night, Jean. We all really love you.

Well done Salford. Every neutrals favourite now until the end of the season (and rightly so).

If somehow they did win it could this be compared to Leicester winning the Premier League the other year?

In RL when was the last time a team destined for relegation/2nd bottom got this close (or even won it)?

Cheers everyone for the best wishes. Unbelievable night for us long-suffering Salford fans and whatever happens next week it's just been one hell of a ride.



=#FF0000And you were doing so well

I think yes.

As a Salford fan we kinda expect to be in big games. Usually at the foot of the table.

The difference this season, for most of it, is that Watson manged to instill a massive self belief into a team of players that most other teams have discarded. Our success this season is down to Watson and a small team of dedicated individuals off the filed. We've remained fairly injury free and we're as fit if not fitter than most sides which has maintained our focused run in to the play offs. We've managed to find that intangible quality that all team sports strive for that is hard to nail down. It's self-belief, a tight-nit group, hard work, morale and making your own luck.

If we go out next week, it will be with no shame. A great season for us regardless.

I believe egg is quite difficult to remove from one's face LeBron. Use extra soap.
