Think Mossop will be a big loss for them as to be fair he has been decent down the middle for them this season. Is Inu still banned?

He coped a two month ban earlier this month .

Pretty difficult to disagree with that. Maybe BH will go for Scott instead of JJ?

I'd like Brown to get more game time but I'm pretty sure Bowden will replace him if he's fit.

We need to go do a professional job against Salford and Leigh and then we will be in pretty good shape at the half way point of the season and it will set us up nicely for what should be a cracking derby.

I'd go with that to be fair and give Bowden another week to make sure he is 100% and give Brown more game time against Salford.

Wigan also play twice before we take on Salford.

If they lose either Warrington at home tomorrow or Saints away on Sunday then we will be fourth by next Monday.

We are already fourth, fiddling barstewards.

3rd I think, given that Saints are on 14 points too.

Good to see we now have two Swift wingers
Would you give Mitch another run Dave?
Think he will go for Cam Scott over Johnstone

Blimey were 3rd, the LLs is in our grasp

Yes it's a funny old system. I don't imagine Rovers are in too much of a hurry to rearrange games against Saints or Catalans which would likely bring their points percentage down. Also saves on the expense travelling to Perpignan.

There only following the Leeds model

I do this everyweek, missed Fonua last week.

If the players mentioned come back, I dont see a play for Mitch this week, maybe give him a game against Leigh.

With Salford missing players, having a short turnaround on the back of two games and our returning squad, we should be looking to put 50+ past them on Monday night.

With Leigh at home the following week, it will be good to try and build up our points difference. Not something we have done in recent years due to our leaky defence. It might come in useful later in the season.

Don't like the assumption we should put 50 on them. Win it first and Points will take care of themselves. Hope the players don't think it's gonna be a walk over.

I hope they approach the game in the same way they did the recent Leigh fixture and do a professional job. Win first and foremost is the important factor and if we can open up the play and score a few points that will good. If we do dominate Salford I hope we remain with our foot on the gas similar to the way we did Leigh.

Focus on winning against a team that will fight hard for the points and as long as we remain patient & disciplined the rest should take care of itself.

In effect that is what I said. Of course you aim to take the lead and gain control of the game. Then with our squad, freshness and their absentees, should mean we can kick on for a healthy win.

With our more disciplined approach this season, I’m ow more confident we’ll post a comfortable win.

I can see plenty of rotation in next three games, 3 games in 10 days, players like Satae, Sao, Brown, Fash, Mint, JJ, Ma'u and Dre will all need the odd games rest.

Salford vs Wakefield off after positive test in Salford camp.

So far, just one positive Covid test in the Salford camp, but

Bloody ell, tickets just dropped on doormat, just another episode of Covid, how Wimbledon, Euros, F1, carry on is a mystery to me. Hope the cricket is on tomorrow.

Maybe Salford are mixing up suspensions with Covid.

Ridiculous.

We'll have to somehow rearrange this in an already full schedule otherwise if doesn't get played at all and we miss out on improving our points percentage for a game we'd be expected to win.

If Salford cannot raise a team they should forfeit the game.

Think this only works for St. Helens

Can’t we ask Wakey for game on Monday
