Listening to the game on the app at work (commentary is brilliant by the way). Sounds like everything is really coming together after all the hard work put in by the lads. Let's hope we can kick on now, well done to everyone at the club.

Sounds like Locke is world class!

a Salford away win



with only 12 players for 32 mins of the second half Its really not very Salford at all . couldn't make the game What was Lama Tasi sent off

for?

Late high tackle on Brough

good performance by salford, was really up for it today

as for huddersfield, it has been coming for months....been poor but getting the wins, thanks for giving us the kick up the backside we need.

Tremendous performance built on strong aggressive defence.
We bombed at least 3 tries,and their last try was a bit of a fluke.
Caton- Brown looks as though he's going to be stand out.
Locke was very confident,as you'd expect,and not fully match fit.
Johnson back to his best and Josh Griffin played well.
I thought our pack would be second best but we bossed it.
Shame that Tasi was sent off and truly sad that poor Brough had to replaced following the hit.
Expectations now sky high for the Hull game

So Salford's best performance of the season coincides with you guys being poor? If you are going to come on here and give a compliment then drop the patronising comments at the end.

Huddersfield were poor otherwise it would have been different, although Salford played well.

Thought today's game was a fantastic performance against an in form top side. Where do you begin to pick good performances from? Obviously there's Kevin Locke & Mason Caton Brown who were both outstanding.
I'd like to pick a few of our unsung heroes today because the stars get the plaudits so I'd like to mention Theo, Jordan Walne & Iestyn Harris
Theo for me gave one of his best performances. He was running the centre of the park like an experienced pro. When it came to defence he stood up to be counted with a couple of great tackles on some big men. For me I'd have given him the Man of the Match.
I thought Jordan Walne was great today. The amount of yards he made against a very big pack was outstanding. He also put his hand up for loads of work in defence.
Iestyn Harris has been going about his business in a very professional manner. When he was appointed I must admit I thought it may have been a mistake. Since he's arrived he's analysed where we were lacking in certain positions and gone out to rectify it. Hooker, Lack of pace, defensive structure etc. Over the last five or six weeks we've seen gradual improvement and today it came to fruition. I've listened to Iestyn's interviews on the radio since he arrived and I think he comes across as a very intelligent thinking coach who sees the game as it is. I think that we have a coach who understands the modern game and will move us forward to where we as fans want to be.
Well done to all the team & coaching staff for today's performance.
Lastly a well done to the fans for a great turnout and fantastic support for the boys today. It was a day out we all have been looking forward to for quite a few years.

Maybe, just maybe, the lowly Salford stopped Huddersfield playing today!! That's certainly the way I saw the way we tackled the Giants Pack!

A team are only as good as they are allowed to play by the opposition. It's no coincidence we kept Cas pretty quiet last week despite their very late winner. It seems all the extra defensive work in training it now starting to show on the field.

To concede only 24 points combined away to Cas and the Giants is a massive improvement considering we were shipping 30 points in almost every game.

I didn't think you were patronising. For what it's worth.

I have seen small improvements over the last few weeks, I have felt we were due to give someone a spanking but being a Salford fan you learn to say it quietly. The biggest improvement has been in our defence & today it made up for many depressing away trips.

I cannot remember a Salford side with so much pace & options, I thought we would get out muscled in the forwards today without Hock & Hanson, so big credit to those forwards who laid the platform today for out backs.

Quite rightly the focus was on Lock & he delivered, however I was very impressed with Mason Caton Brown he had great pace & balance.
I am sure most opposition fans will not give us the praise we deserve, we should have won last week at Cas & the game the other week at Warrington was closer than the scoreline suggest. Let the opposition fans continue to offer little old Salford no credit, I say the Salford reds are rising!

Cas fan here. I had a funny feeling you would win today and fancied you. You showed signs last week that a really good performance was not far off. I backed you on the coupon, but have a tinge of regret that I did not take you off level, at much better odds. Although I fancied you actually winning, I took the 12 start, to play on the safe side.

Sounds like Kevin Locke had a good game. Being a NZ international, he's obviously quality, but generally they don't hit the heights in the very first game, so if he did, then that's a very good sign.

Just as a matter of interest did Neil Evalds get a game. I was quite impressed with him last week, he looked very safe and composed under the high balls and seemed to have genuine pace and an attacking threat. Have only seen him about two and a half games. I know you can't go on such a small amount of viewing time, but in that small time, he has looked quite good. Not seen him really tested in defence though, so don't know how good a defence he has.

Today showed the improvement because in the corresponding home fixture we lost the arm wrestle after about 15 minutes and their big forwards totally dominated us.

So in the last few weeks against us, Warrington, Castleford and now Huddersfield have all played poorly? Nothing to do with Salford playing well at all.

Superb performance today, not many teams have gone their in recent times and won so emphatically (score board doesn't do the performance justice). Fantastic debut from both Kevin Locke and Mason Caton-Brown, but that result has been coming for some weeks all without Hock and Hansen too. Huge credit to Harris, he's had his doubter on here but the improvement in recent weeks has been visible.

Huge game against Hull on Saturday, the old Salford would get battered lets see if we really have turned a corner and got ourselves back into the play-off race.

I wasn't there today.
Did the underrated,under-valued,unappreciated Tommy Lee last the full 80 minutes as hooker in a dominant pack and in a winning team which as down to 12 men for the last 32 minutes of the game?

I don't think we should get over excited at the prospect of play-off RL. I don't think we'll attain it this year, but it's still important for the team to keep putting the effort in. The effort has been getting better and better since Harris took charge and you can see the team are giving it their all and it finally paid off for us today in a great performance. Will be interesting to see how they back this performance up next week. They simply have to duplicate this weeks effort and keep improving.

Having someone like Locke stood behind you guiding you around can only be a massive boost, and teams will be very wary of his ability in open play. We've also gone from a severe lack of pace in the back line, to having some serious speedsters. Broken play and defensive busts will result in a much higher ratio of busts to tries scored and it also means that we should be able to cover defensive errors much better than in the first half of the season.

Next week is a real big test for this team. Consistency is what sets apart the good teams from the great teams, and is something we've always struggled with mentally. I'm hoping Harris's eye for the little details mean that we retain focus completely.

Didn't stop us playing at the AJ Bell stadium

No Evalds can think himself very unlucky he was one of the subs, came on after 70 minutes to replace Locke! Been one of Salfords best players the last few weeks, great prospect.

fair play to salford, we were truly abysmal and were put to the sword today.
that hammering has been on the cards for a while as we have been pretty poor despite winning 9/10
salford hammered us in every department today and looked a class side,albeit helped by shocking defending, but you can only beat whats in front of you.

i'm just thankful you blew a few chances and didn't rack up at least 50 points, i think in all honesty the score flattered us.

well done to the supporters too, a good 250 or so and made lots of noise, although you did have lots to sing about.
hopefully this will give us a massive kick up the ar$e we need, if it does, then thanks

someone mentioned effort earlier, i think the major difference today was effort, salford had lots, we had little, scoreboard showed that.

Well played Salford better team by a country mile, we got beat because you were more hungry, aggressive had better line speed and ideas in attack. Giants were poor because Salford were in our faces and caused us to be poor!!! Locke looks a good signing and will go well for you. not gonna say how its been coming for the Giants or how poorr we were etc etc. You get what you deserve in this game and Salford getting the win says everything!!

Awesome performance was a pleasue to be part of of it! 1-17 were incredible. I thought Tommy Lee put in perfomance though.
