shame we didnt get caton-brown when we tried, salford came in with more money

How did Brough stay on the field, what a horrible horrible player he is. Utterly loathsome. Thankfully he was also awful today too

Glad that games over with, one of those I thought could go either way. To me you look just shot of confidence, hopefully a win for you next week and you'll get on a bit of a roll. Good luck for the rest if the 8s!

The problem for huddersfield is leadership, more specifically Danny Brough. He's a sniping scowling inconsistent little player and his poor attitude has started to rub off.

I know- how DID he stay on the field

when Salford did all they could to take him out off the ball....

Wow. Just wow.

He'll cop a ban shocking elbow on tomkins!

Unfortunately Brough will pick up a ban for the elbow on the floor.

Brough is a great talent but he's also a real bell-end. Once again, he showed the bell-end side with a really nasty elbow into Tomkins face, for no reason whatsoever. He's got away with a fair few this year, he shouldn't get away with that one today. Horrible to see and shouldn't be in the game.

Come on, Jools. Even you with your strongest Hudds specs on can't justify that elbow on the ground?

If it was the other way around you'd be frothing at the mouth right now.

Just saw the Brough incident. If the RFL had any balls, Brough wouldn't play again this season.

Tut tut Danny boy,i think you've let your club down badly with this one

3 match ban minimum, stupid from Broughy, but in all fairness he at least showed some fight and heart today!

Maybe they remember him putting MCB on crutches ? nice hatrick from him a shame we missed his services for most of the season.

There's more salford fans on here than on their own board. There's almost more than at the stadium this afternoon too -Yep brough should cop a ban - just as long as mateo cops one too there will be no complaints from me- note I didn't deny he did anything wrong- but pointing out he was reacting to the digs he got...

You seem to be incapable of writing anything without an underhanded comment in it. It makes you seem petty, immature, and blinkered.

I don't think I've ever seen you write anything balanced or humble. It's a shame, because your inability to do so just makes you seem like a petulant little girl.

Says the butcher- who's always well balanced and two-eyed and never goes onto anybody's board to troll....
Nothing underhand about my comments, pretty much out there. I've said in happy for brough to be taken to account for his misdemeanours provided salfords players are too. How is that unbalanced?

The trouble with Jool's is she will tell you that you are wrong but if it happens that you are not, she will try to confuse the issue.

After my post yesterday had Grix played a good hand and had a decent game I would have held up my hand and admitted my pleasant surprise no doubt as in the past to me and others to much gloating from Jool's.

But after my post yesterday questioning his selection and her making an uppity comment about all four coaches and her not being wrong Grix coughed up the anticipated error that led to a try within five minutes which 'in my opinion' had a negative effect on the team.

Queue silence and blindsides from Jool's as usual and if this and the 'tell it as it is ' post gets me banned for telling the truth as I see it so be it as I won't post on a site where genuine heartfelt free speech can get you banned !!

See you've done it again. You can't write anything without a little dig. Come on jools, you can write one post without being a smart ass surely?

I don't think anything I've wrote is trolling on here. I'd be interested to know what you consider to be trolling.

Your view is unbalanced as you are comparing apples with oranges. Elbowing a guy on the floor with the point of your elbow into his face is not comparable to anything else that happened on the pitch legal or not. Yet you will only concede that he should be punished as long as Salford players actions are also punished after the event? What did the awful nasty Salford players do that is comparable to attacking someones face while they lie on the floor?

I'm sure you aren't saying that only a misdemeanour that involves elbowing someone on the floor should be punished. I didn't compare any misdemeanours- I'm just saying as long as all are punished in line with the misdemeanour then I'm happy. Brough had taken a few cheap shots earlier- they obviously did what they were intended to do and wound him up. As I've already said I'm happy for him to receive a ban. Will do him good!

Anyway Jools did you use the pedestrian crossing on Sunday or take the lazy route and cross a dual carriage way so you could post about how dangerous it is and did the huge walk the length of the stadium get you all annoyed again or was it that you had to walk to a toilet? Curious what negative experiences you feel the need to moan about this week.

Ladies there's enough meat for all of you.

TBH that wouldn't bother me at all. His cons have started to outweigh his pros.

Could be right there. I notice that Leroy was captain when hinchy went off....

What got me is after that horrendous start and giving away the obilgatory score on half time , we decide we will TRY and take part after about 50 mins ?
This was obvious to me but cant quite work out the sudden wake up unless a message passed on to the field --Anybody else notice?

Sadly it only lasted 12-15 mins and then it was back to flat as a pancake rugby

In addition someone (perhaps the club accountant or somebody good with figures) ought to explain to playing staff that playoff games aginst superleague opposition arent 2 points but 4 in essence
-2 YOUVE GOT-- AND 2 THEY HAVENT !!!!
In no way was there any indication that this was their mindset yesterday Simply Salford played with more intensity and passion and far less mistakes They wanted it more

We looked like it was a day trip to Lancs and a stroll in the park --very much more of the same all season with the few exceptions that have shown we CAN do it if we want

Its becoming more and more apparent to me that we dont WANT! -full stop

Why ? Good lord I wish someone would tell us poor buggers who have to try and find something to get wound up about with a team who couldnt get wound up in a ball o wool!!

Like others - I just cant see any positives at the moment

No line speed in defence
No pace or go forward in attack
No wiil to win
No enthusiasm

The dressing room must be like a bloody morgue instead of 17 lads wanting to give their all for each other and survival
They couldnt run a bath - and look like they met on the team bus!

BUT WHY with many of the squad that took the league title and under a coach theyve now replaced
Something doesnt ring true --posters on here get at each others throats but with little knowledge of REAL reasons

Hell the injuries problem and the Ferres saga are long gone and all weve got to blame now is Brexit I suppose

But the frustrated fans on here are asked to go along and get behind the team
We are there (with or without rose tinted specs )---Lets damn well see a TEAM please / working together for survival -and quick !!

And some straight talking explanation from someone in the know for the malaise wouldnt go amiss as from recent body language and the "do you want this ball " approach -its getting serious folks
There has to be something deeper than the attitude thats been shown on the field for 80 mins week in / week out Its DIRE!

Well the only thing I got out of yesterday was a bit of a suntan.

If that's fighting for your job then they can't be bothered that much about their future employment.

As Rick Stone says - this team has got used to playing like this for a long time.

It's going to be tough to turn that around in a few weeks as there is a lot more wrong than right.

I'll be happy to be in the million pound game 'cos if we aren't we'll already be in the Championship.
