nice strong squad no risk stuff by TS

I would go:

2 Chris Riley
22 Rhys Williams
4 Chris Bridge
23 Ryan Atkins
3 Matt King
6 Lee Briers
27 Gareth O’Brien
8 Adrian Morley
9 Michael Monaghan
10 Garreth Carvell
26 David Solomona
12 Ben Westwood
17 Simon Grix
Subs:
14 Mickey Higham
15 Jon Clarke
18 Mike Cooper
20 Matty Blythe

Rested:
5 Joel Monaghan
16 Paul Wood

Sounds pretty good to me that does!

I'd quite like to see Michael Monaghan rested this week - let Clarke and Higham take the hooking role.

Surely Joel doesn't need a rest again! Woody certainly deserves one though.

EASY EASY EASY

I'll get me coat

I'm impressed that the Wire haven't taken the easy option and gone for an under strentgh squad against the Lions, credit to Warrington for that.
This really will be our cup final now and I hope we do ourselves justice and play like we have done so far this season in the league where we remain unbeaten.
I'm under no illusions that we will lose but hope we cross the whitewash a couple of times after all the last time we made the quarter finals three or four years ago we were leading the mighty Wigan at one stage.
Good luck to both teams and here's hoping the Wire fans turn out in numbers, it's not very often you get the chance to watch a former giant of the game play.!!!

Michael Monaghan and Lee Briers to be rested please.

Its a bit cheeky Alan telling the Wire fans to turn out in numbers when you are not even going yourself!

lol,rest hodgson,briers,mozza,benny westwood,

start,big sol,cooper,higham,clarke,

How many fans do you think Swinton will bring to the game on Friday?

i recon around 800 lol.

Unlikely.

More like 80

Might be lucky to get 800 from Warrington

It can only be good for Swinton to play you lot at your place.
A bit of cash from the game.
A good experience of playing a top class side.
Good luck to Swinton (even if they are on the end of a battering)

Between 0 and 10

should be about 500. Cant see us bringing many more. We took 1200 to wigan a few years ago, but that was a Sunday.

You can always rely on a Salford Fan. For a Super league team you lot hardly set the world on fire.

Not going, would if it wasn't so much.
To be honetst, I'd rather we tried to make it a bit more competitive. We'll win easily either way but a hammering doesn't really appeal.

Wish it was at swinton, don't get much chance to visit lower league grounds so would have been nice. Since starting to watch Wire in 2004 think i have only been to Featherstone and Oldham.

Swinton are playing at the Willows this season.

I alot of respect for swinton, there on the up

r salford still in talks about a new ground?

not heard much about it,have they abandoned the plan?

It's in progress you can see it from Barton bridge.

cheers gaz!
