All good thanks, been similar here. Read more than post these days, contrary opinions are not so welcome and being grumpy and middle aged means I'm more contrary than not these days...

grumpy and middle aged?

yep, two of us.

sadly a lot dont like you having an opinion these days, unless you agree with theres.
anyway, we seem to be returning to normality, I'm enjoying the rugby and we are getting there

Bit concerned that we seem to have regular culls on the forum - this wasn't in the T&Cs...

Good to see you back Tad

It was. You just didnt read them

Have you seen Gotcha recently Marty…?

If I remember rightly Gotcha had lost his passion for the game, it was obvious with his posts.

Or was he “sent to Scarborough”…?

just visiting pal like bats said, more read than post. hope you're well too

Salford on a bit of a winning streak at the minute, we however, don’t know how to play second halves.

There was nothing that looked too bad to me but given all the head high penalties we gave away and that ‘tip’ tackle first half and given how the disciplinary have been giving bans out like confetti at a wedding in recent weeks, I’m keeping my fingers crossed we don’t pick up anymore suspensions

Is Christopher Gotcha.?

I’ve been called some stuff in my time, but that takes the biscuit!

Only kidding Gotcha (if you’re still reading)

Got ha and I disagreed on nearly everything so im not sure where you get that from



Anyway this is a big game for us and I think Salford will be out to spoil our return of fans!

Back on topic this is simply a must win game. Out of those missing for the Catalans trip, Oledski, Martin, Vuniyayawa, Tetevano, Thompson, Lui, Handley, which players will we have back for the Salford game?

Thompson and Lui definately wont be. Tetevano seems a bit of a mystery. Handley and Mik covid protocol so hopefully cleared. Martin back from his suspension. Not sure what the reason for King's absence was Fri.

Its not must win but we do need to start putting a run together soon thats for sure.

King couldn’t travel because of his Visa

Martin, Vuniyayawa, Handley are likely to return. Oledzki hopefully. Lui out for a few more weeks. Thompson banned for two more weeks. Tetevano remains to be seen.

Any idea on how ticket sales are going? Leeds have done a lot of promotion for this game. Would be nice to see a big crowd.

Missed a fair bit of this season hasn't he Tetevano... must be hugely disappointing for him.

Disappointing for all of us. He looks the real deal.

Myler
T Briscoe, Hurrell, Newman, Handley
Sutcliffe, Gale
Mik, Leeming, Prior
Mellor, Martin
Smith

Dwyer
Holroyd
Vuniyayawa
(Tetevano if fit) Gannon

That's a good enough side to get the result this week I feel.

I think we'd have a couple more wins on the board if he'd have played a bit more imo.. can't wait to see him ripping it up again.

Noticed he is on the training images the club posted today. Big grin on his face. Fingers crossed he is somewhere near.

I reckon he'll be playing the back end of this season for us, hopefully without any further bans etc - and then again a full pre-season with him and a more settled team should work wonders for 2022.

The hope is Zane will play this week but its touch and go at moment. Mikolaj will play. Prior may get a rest.

Suspect Walters wont play.
