I seem to remember when the HJ first opened & Wigan turned up mob handed there were a lot of their supporters who couldn't get in & vowed never to bother again. Our away end is not the biggest in the league & i would be reluctant to travel if i thought i might not get in. There is much more room for visiting fans at Wigan, Saints, Huddersfield & Hull.

With the exception of Saints the others are built for Football hence their capacity being greater. With the exception of Saints and Wigan, the away end at the HJ is generally empty anyway.

Made up with the result, was unable to make it this week but listened to it on the radio, we seemed to cope well with their bullying tactics and as much as Paterson tried he couldn't get Sims to react which is a good sign. The indiscipline from Salford is a worry with late shots to half backs and the amount of high shots was out of order.
I think Salford will have a fair few banned this season with the likes of Hauraki, Paterson and Hock.
Well done Penny he seemed to have a great game.

Penny did IW.
He dealt with high kicks and tackling was great.
Atkins needs to up his pass timing to put this kid into half a gap.

Half a gap is all he needs!

Good to hear RD, glad the lad is getting a second chance and is taking it with both hands.

What gripes at me is what I've said before on here.
A wingers attack is only as good as his centre's last pass.
Fa'afili was almost a limpet with speed but his finishing record was up there with all the best wingers in the modern SL age.
He was effective because Gleeson in size and timing of his passing out right was the best in the league.
In many cases Gleeson had set him Henry up so well my granny could have scored it.

Atkins has the size and strength but he doesn't have that timing ability to put in a sweet pass.

Don't get me wrong I like him being greedy and taking on a half gap but not over and over.

One occasion yesterday he ran so wide, 1st tackle I think, he had Penny rubbing shoulders with the linesman and got us bungled into touch.
It was the poorest play we had done all game. It wasn't even fare to call it school boy errors, the kids are better than that.
Only Myler kicking the ball into Locke's hands comes close to the poor play made.

Locke didn't play.

Must've been a really bad kick.

lol

I thought not.
I did try to look who played fb for them 1st but I couldn't find the teams.
I thought about editing it then to I think it was Locke but I got side tracked on a job.

No worries ill take the gaff! I've got broad shoulders.

Thanks guys.
Who was it by the way? not that it matters, it was the poor kick that mattered.

probably looked worse than it actually was live.... to me it looked like he jumped in and close lined him.. obvioulsy not

haurauki has been charged for his cannon ball tackle on currie, you know the one silverwood didn't see anything wrong with, even though it was really REALLY obvious.

Yes, it did look pretty bad at the time.

That is good to see. 11,864 people saw it and a good proportion of them voiced their feelings. One person didn't see it.

Good. Looks like the folks at Red Hall saw Tony's interview in the WG.

I would really like to see Bennys 'head tackle' again.
At the time I thought it was a certain red card, when the Ref only gave Benny a yellow then I thought a ban would follow.

Did the panel manage to miss Hauraki's shoulder charge to O'Brien's head ?

Penalty sufficient. Committed to making tackle by making a wrapping motion.......whatever that means.

I was really worried when Benny made that tackle , as it looked pretty bad. Think it was a good job that it didn't all kick off and Benny seemed to stick his hands up which helped situation . Good decision by ref and red hall.
