Salford score updates

finally we score, hodgson, 24-4

I said on saturday that we would lose today, radio said salford not playing that well just we playing worse, think brown has overcooked the resting of players! Oh well cant win em all!

Sad that we are happy not to be nilled when we are a top 3 side!

The players want to sort themselves out.

Not happy here.

Again we bomb it....WHY??????

Going to do something more interesting now - dont want to waste any more time of them today!

28-4

I'm bloody fuming!

Although we cant expect to win every game, we should be beating sides like salford, we have every right to be fuming, this is unacceptable!

we score again, 30-10 too little too late me thinks,

Apparently Smith ruled one out, shoulda been at least 14 points.
No matter what, sounds like we haven't deserved jack squit.

30-14 now, not looking as bad but there is no excuses today, sounds like we were awful! need to sort this out before friday.

Castleford always run us close and look like have put up good fight against Saints today so we really need to get back on our game for Friday me thinks!!!!!

final score 30-18, both teams scored 4 trys, just salford kicked 7 from 7 kicks. Oh well roll on friday!!

I still stand by what I said about Brough, he is NOT consistent and I would have kept Kermit any day of the week as opposed to him.

His poor play and conversion misses (amongst other poor performances) have cost us 2 points today.

Tyrer intercepted a ball off him and that basically knackered the job.
It shouldn't have happened!

dont think it is broughs fault, the whole team underperformed today, plus think some of the blame should lay on nathan browns head for resting too many players, this caused us to be disjointed, but like i said roll on friday!

lets hope him resting a few will do us good for friday

and hope we have a good win against cas

Don't know what to make of a performance like that, we never started to play till 65 minutes had gone, I cant remember completing a sett in the first half, Forward passes, Knock on's, penalties, all were there in abundance, For 3/4 of that game we were as bad as it gets, and N Brown has to take his share of blame for it.

Brough had a poor game all round, his kicking in the loose was poor, His place kicking was far too rushed cause we were running out of time, and his passing was like everyone else's, rubbish. However It is always the same, i dont care who your halfbacks are, if they are playing behind a pack that is getting a good hiding they will not shine,

He was poor, but to put all the blame on him would be wrong, I can't remember a position on the field where we weren't outplayed, The pack were just outplayed by a set of forwards who never took a backward step, could offload at will, and must have thought it the easiest game they had played this season.

After 65 minutes they decided to play, but what use is it after 65 minutes of incompetence. A great turnout from the fans to witness a load of trash like that. They all deserve a good B----ing from K Davy, starting with N Brown and working down, we got exactly what we deserved from that, I said earlier in the week we could get embarrassed, I didn't expect it to be that bad.

Spot on. One or two seemed to want to bust a gut, but most couldn't even do the basics right. We underestimated Salford and it caught us out. We only started scoring once the game was safe for Salford. Saying that we can't ever play as bad as that again and we still scored as many tries as Salford.

Fair comment Matt. Every team i suppose is entitled to a bad performance, lets hope that's ours out of the way for this season. That was very disapointing after the fans turned up for them.

Utter garbage today. No enthusiasm until it was too late today. Brown was the only one who looked likely to make a break and when Robinson came on he tried his best to speed things up. David Hodgson saved us a few times with decent catches under high balls. Other than that there's nothing good to take out of todays game apart from a good travelling support who were yet again let down. If Nathan had better players at his disposal but decided to rest them because we were playing a lesser team then he wants a right rodding from Ken. I'd go as far as saying that was our worst performance for a few years. I text radio Leeds to suggest the players donate their wages to charity after todays game cos they didn't earn a penny. Our forwards were outplayed but a pack of no names today.

The only player that the commentators picked out as being anywhere near decent, was Mr Consistent - Andy Raleigh.

I think they all made some basic mistakes today, even our Andy. I hate to think players don't give anything less than 100% because in the end they are very fortunate to be professional sportsmen. Rugby League can only be played by the brave and to get to the level our players have got to they are all extremely brave, but they let themselves down today. Perhaps Brown's selection wasn't the wisest, but then if we go on a winning run now because we are the most fresh squad around then it will be proved to be the correct decision. I suppose time will tell. Nevertheless the guys out there were good enough to beat Salford if only they had done the basics right.

Raleigh was no better than any of the others, He never busted a tackle, he never got a offload in, And it's no more use blaming him than it is Brough. We had no stand out player today. After 65 minutes there were one or two who tried hard, Brown as much as anybody, but it was too late.

I know I didnt go to the game but Id never blame Nathan for the scoreline. Yeah maybe he chose the squad but at the end of the day its down to the players on the pitch to perform. Nathan may have given them a ear full at half time and they couldnt act on it? I dont know.. But im sure it will be corrected on Friday
