Well done to Red Dave - the only one of us with enough faith to back Salford for a win in the prediction league. The rest of us should be ashamed of ourselves I bet Watson uses our lack of faith as a motivational factor pre game, threatening the team with having to meet Dixon or Prestwich Red if they don't prove us wrong

What I find incredibly frustrating about performances like last night is that against Huddersfield for the 1st 20 minutes we looked set for another decent win and simply imploded, just unfathomable how the same team can be so Jackal and Hyde.

I currently work overseas and the only game I have watched live this season is Huddersfield last week. Typical!
Despair to delight within in a week. Well done Salford.

When we've had our bad spells it's usually outside influences Jones and Bibby advertising they're leaving Lui to Leeds etc
Amazing 7 games to go as the season ends and for once we can, with a fair wind, win them all. Jones, Sio, Mossop missing and Murray seems to be playing well at HKR. Swop Olpherts for somebody at Castleford now.

Agreed re Olpherts, swap for Will Maher or there best water carrier, I'm bewildered Cas have gone for Olpherts.
How did Lolohea go last night? Lui doesn't seem to be the Knight in shining armour Leeds thought he was.

One thing that hasn't been mentioned is our discipline. Last night we were excellent and Kendall in all fairness had a shocker and looked like he was doing his best to ruin the night. No daft penalties given away and hopefully we can keep this consistency up in the run in. .

Kendall seemed to ignore all the rules of RL last night, which actually made for a quite entertaining game.
It just showed what a difference a bit of go forward can make from the pack compared to the last two games. A great showing from all the forwards, which in turn gave both half backs time and space and they both looked a threat.
Great to have Junior back in. Possibly replaced some of the on field club leadership that we lost with the departure of Lui.
Also good to see Lolohea play well and he was all smiles with the fans at the end as well. Let's hope he is starting to get some confidence back.

Must be the hardest reffing job in the world, Superleague. I honestly admire them for having a go. Always up with play for 80 mins and making instant decisions with often Sky analysing. Tough.
Definitely two refs needed as in Oz.

Yeah I do feel slightly for the refs this season, as a number of rule changes were brought in to speed up the game designed for a 2 ref system. Yet in true RL style it was then decided to stick with having just one referee.

Just watched it - classic Watson-Salford performance that. Keep it tight and build the pressure in the first half then open it up in the second.
I thought that the ref was quite decent (until the last 5 minutes) and tried to let the game flow. There were people on Twitter calling for his head - If that level of performance upsets them I don’t think they will ever be happy. Yes there were 3 bad decisions in the last 5 minutes but the game was over so does it really matter? He was decent for the other 75.
Hastings looked so much more effective than last week - same effort but more direction. Burke looked like he had his best game of the season. Flash was surprisingly good as well. Very enjoyable and glad they mucked up uploading the highlights!

Very enjoyable and glad they mucked up uploading the highlights! Yes,I’ve just watched it,odd without a commentary. Good performances all round with the pack beating theirs up. Dudson immense,Walker strong and Burke outstanding. Great to see Flash back to good form. Welham was tremendous and Junior made a difference. I thought ref did ok. Its great to play with 2 top class half backs. I suspect Tui will surprise Leeds fans on how well he does under Watson. In truth,Warrington were poor,probably because they played as well as we let them. I think Catalans will be far more of a test if they bring their A game

Also thought junior put a right shift in, not Chris kendals best game.
