1. Jonny Lomax, 2. Tommy Makinson, 3. Jordan Turner, 4. Josh Jones, 5. Adam Swift, 6. Lance Hohaia, 7. Luke Walsh, 9. James Roby, 10. Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook, 11. Sia Soliola, 12. Jon Wilkin , 13. Willie Manu, 14. Anthony Laffranchi, 15. Mark Flanagan, 16. Kyle Amor, 17. Paul Wellens, 18. Alex Walmsley, 22. Mark Percival, 24. Gary Wheeler.

Flanagan for Richards the only change to the squad.

I'd play same team as last week but change Flanagan for Wello?

Thought we might get to see Mose this week

Sad to see no Mose, but expected.

Same team as last week, unless there's a doubt over turner.

No Chase in the Salford squad which is good news.

Swap Wello for Flanagan and we're all good. I'd maybe start Jones for Manu or LMS too.

Surprising, i thought he was fit for thursday

There's time for that to change yet I reckon.

Have Salford anyone else out ?

No I don't think so. Apparently Sa'u is rated as 50/50 but is named in the squad.

Looking at our squad just Chase, Rapira (although still coming back) & Griffin! Sa'u is 50/50 though!

I reckon we might see one or two changes this week with Hohaia coming in for Wellens and Flanagan in for Turner pushing Jones to centre.

I'd buy that for a dollar.

I think that's why Flanagan been called up for Turner if he's out.

+1
but think Wello will keep his spot

Looks like things are different for you guys on the injury front compared to last year. Only No8 missing which I suppose is Mose.
It does make a real difference to games and the season when almost all the squad are fit.
Even to this day when asked who will win the League Brian Noble always says "The team that stays the fittest". On that matter I do think he's right.
Can't see anything but a further 2 points and hefty credit balance on the points difference.

I know your game, trying to jinx us



Its a long season, no doubt we'll have our fair few before October. If we can keep Roby, Walsh, Walmesley, Amor, Lomax fit for the majority i think we'll do ok. I'd add Wheeler to that as he's started the season brilliantly but its too much to hope!

I was a little disappointed with wheeler last Friday. He didn't run at them enough. He's very dangerous when he uses his foot work but seemed to pass more.

Got through hell of a lot of work in defence tho

I'm happy to let him play his way back into the game - given his past I'm just happy for him to be back on the pitch. I'm sure he'll run more as he regains confidence.

To be fair to Wheeler he did not get many chances to take on the Hull defence especially in the first half. As you say though his defence was very good.

On the subject of taking the line on, has Luke Walsh been tackled yet, as he actually played the ball in a saints shirt yet?

(Not having a go at Walsh before you all flood in telling me how good he's been)

He got tackled against Batley and knocked on, other than that I don't think so.

He was tackled once v Warrington I think!

Belfair have given us 1/3 against Salford; not worth a bet.

Such a shame chase isn't playing. Would have been a cracker with him on the pitch.

Hopefully I will get to see the full game.
Managed to get skygo working in oz.

Been reading what everyone has been saying about players etc.. In particular Wello, and I suspect he is justifying his spot on the bench even if most "experts" on here have made up their mind he is past it.
He is gonna have to be good to keep a fully fit Flanagan out though.

He WILL be tackled by Lama Tasi Tonight gauranteed
