We don't deserve to make the six frankly. We can't pish away the last 14 or so games, and then pull it together for 3 to make the six and get plaudits for it. Turned a corner my backside.

Salford missing a few too

Burgess has a massive job on his hands with this lot.

There's nothing they can do barring penalising every set, which would ruin the "entertainment" value. So they're stuck. Or they could actually turn it into a penalty fest until teams learn.

We are at the same standard as we were under the fraud Powell

Super League.

NRL is like another sport.

And I'm sure Championship, League One and the amateur game are better to watch than the "elite" competition.

80 mins of dross but a great try to win it to be fair

Brainless rugby again by the Wire.

Mistake after mistake.

Please let this season end now.

Well, the NRL manage it.

And without watching it back, i just know some crab flew out of the line leaving us short.

Chambers demeanour before the game was hardly inspirational.

As dour as a door stop!

Rowley had his players fired up and they got the win on the back of it.

Exactly, it's doable.

Thewlis got done by Burgess' footwork to be fair

Is that season over, assuming we won't beat that lot next week?

That's exactly what they should do, this isn't dark arts or dominant tackles etc it's just cheating and getting away with it.

Chambers lost me in his 1st game, where he left it to the players to come up with the game plan. Nice one coach

Thank god I don't hand over my hard earned to watch this pile of dross and it'll be a while before they get a penny outta me.god help us next week against that lot
.

We’ll get hammered by Saints on Friday.

Sooner people realise Thewlis is championship level the better but can say that about a few on this team.

Well that's certainly a take. Are you basing this on one missed tackle? He's largely been our most consistent performer, even when we threw away half the table. Its only really recently he's been off the boil, but then you need to remember the poor sod is playing outside Peter Matautia. Who IS championship level.

Can someone fire Chambers out of a cannon please.

If you can’t get your players fired up for a must win game then you shouldn’t be in the job!

As bad as the Wigan cup game that!

Fully expect it.

Add -Ratchford looks spent now, curry is a liability in defence, not been impressed with drinkwater this year and i dont think nicholson is there yet to get so many starting spots.

Ratchford is spent. His kicking really is the only thing worth banking on now. He's been a good servant and is in for the cause but he's 3 years past his sell by date at least. Currie can be so solid but he just has never had the concentration for 80 minutes, his defence is actually generally good but there is always at least once per game where he lets someone waltz right past him. Drinkwater is anonymous (though today I thought he did pretty well defensively), and agreed on Nicholson, potential but far off a finished article.

Hmm, I think perhaps you had to be at the game to get a sense of how hot and (importantly) humid it was. The ball was always going to be extremely slippery. We made a few daft errors but I thought we were unlucky not to get a draw at least.

The decision to give a knock-on against Thewlis when he had been held down by Brierley was absolutely shocking.

Commiserations to Salford for having to go that ground every fortnight; absolute end of nowhere.
