This is exactly the sort of game we should be winning but very rarely seem to do so! If we do have aspirations of challenging for the top 8 or at least showing progression from season to season then this is a must win for me.

Thats not taking anything away from Cas who are in their own right a decent side but im sure at the start of season Mr McRae would have targeted this game as a possible win. Its no good playing brilliantly against Saints, Hudds & Hull and then getting turned over by teams around us, especially at home (im rambling a bit but you know what i mean!)

Hopefully Dan the Man will be back which will give us more attacking impetus and hopefully give us the edge in this game.

Salford win by 10

I was behind the sticks and didnt hear the booing. Dont tell me the muppets are at it again??

IF LEE JEWITT WAS NOT INJURED

Then why did he not have a run out in the reserves on Sunday then?

I've no idea but coaches seem to have the final say if there's a penalty in a kickable position.Shouldn't the coach be offering guidance and sending messages down to the players at 22-22, after all we have lost a fair few of these games by a 6-8 point margin in the last few years and i've lost count of the number where we've been camped in the oppositions 20 and come away with nothing, especially after taking a tap penalty. Let's try something different and see if we can win a few of these tight games. If it doesn't work then revert back to plan A. Get in front, get the ball back and let the other team play catch up. Having come back from 22-6 down the psychological advantage of going in front could have been the gamebreaker.
