Salford (a) 21/7 : Fri Jul 19, 2019 11:39 am  

Are Salford any good or is it Jackson Hastings plus 16? I really don't know.

Squad. Yaha back for the perennially unlucky Broughton, McIlorum back in as well:
Gigot, Mead, Williame, Smith, Casty, McIlorum, Garcia, Bousquet, Simon, Jullien, Whitley, Da Costa, Goudemand, Albert, Maria, Romano, Yaha, Big Sam, Little Sam.

Salford have Mossop and Olpherts back:
Evalds, Welham, Bibby, Mossop, Dudson, Jones, Flanagan, Lussick, Walker, Burke, McCarthy, Tomkins L, Olpherts, Lawton, Inu, Lannon, Lolohea, Hastings, J Johnson

I genuinely never know how to forecast our matches anymore.

Point taken about Hastings but there are weaker now than when we got rinsed back at the Stade GB.

But it wouldn't surprise me if we lost.

I'll correct you on this...

Salford are operating a fulltime squad on the lowest cap in SL. While Hastings is a key player (He would be in any SL side) Watson manages to constantly get the best out of everyone elses cast-offs. We play attractive, quality RL most of the time, and punch well above our weight.

So you are correct in thinking that one man is key, but he's not on the playing staff.

Another shambles.Our players are not fit enough and give up far too easily. After nearly letting Hudderfield beat us when we had a 20 point lead we conceded 2 tries in the last few minutes of bot halves .Gigot is not a good kicker at the end of sets so why do we give him the ball /

I forgot to mention the 2 tries the Yaha's pathetic attempts to catch balls directed straight at him gave them

Two steps forward, one step back. Normal service is resumed
