He seems like an enthusiastic schoolboy. For me out of position, can't tackle but full of endeavour. Hope I'm wrong if he plays there on Friday In the centre he could be like a David Watkins ( not as good obviously). Speed, can pass and inventive
Sio an experienced player, can tackle, catch, positionally always sound, strong and brings the ball back well.

Would move Burgess to centre over putting Escare in there.

Are you happy with Escare as full back?

Does Burgess the RL Player actually exist ?? I Believe he's just a Fictional individual Who's been publicised by SRDs Media team (I assume we have one) I'm Certain that Joe Burgess has retired from Rugby all together and is currently working as a Chicken sexer in Suffolk.

Really happy we had a week off after the Wire shambles, I trust that 2 weeks is enough time to work on the failings we saw last time out.
FWIW - Escare cannot play in the Centre, we have Burgess and Livett who can cover those positions with Sio and Rhys on the wing, its daft putting in a loan player such as Davies when players are fit. Escare's defense cannot be blamed for the Wire mess, he did not let their team run through the defensive line unopposed numerous times to score.
Tomorrow is simple a must win, play Patton at 7 not Atkin who is better covering Ackers off the bench and build a consistent spine with Brown now out long term. If he plays again?
If Marshall cannot get the team up for this games then it has to be last chance saloon. Leigh have sacked Duffy, when a new coach arrives at some point they will react and win a game. Marshall looks very short on ideas to me to this point. I hope we see a big performance tomorrow on Sky to lift our fans.

I’m still not convinced that he knows his best team from what’s available but do we,either ? I just have a feeling that he’ll drop Escaré because he doesn’t fancy him, thus changing the spine for the umpteenth time. I think he’ll play Sio at full back, Davies in the centre whereby the wingers pick themselves On reputation you’d play Patten but he hasn’t really done it yet so I’d probably play Atkin at 7. The pack should pick itself with Roberts andJohnson nowhere near the team. Totally agree that this a big game for the club but a bigger one for Marshall

The thing that worries me about this game, besides Escare..who I do hope could come good, is that now Brown isn't playing; who controls the play and the backline; perhaps time for Atkin and Ackers ( if he can get tho a match ) to shine. Tui can't do it and Patton maybe has the experience. That's where we went down in the end to Wigan, no leader.

Maurice/Bonita - I ask again - Where in your mind is the money coming from to pay off RM? Simple Q as we don`t have any spare moolah. Only if he walks is the answer which of course he won`t so lets give him some space please. The Leigh Sugar Daddy hasn`t got mates at Salford now that MK is out of the picture.

That’s a really good question and I’m not,certainly not,saying he should be sacked. The point I’m making,and I’m very happy for others to disagree,is that I’m not convinced by the new coaching team. Our expectations have suddenly changed,almost overnight,from having a competitive squad to worrying about relegation. It’s in all our interests that he succeeds and I’m willing him on. That’s why I think the next 3 games are make or break for him,but not the club. I trust Ian Blease implicitly and I know he’ll know when and how to support. Affordability is irrelevant.

I thought he was the ideal man for the job, but is really struggling. We need a win tomorrow and crack on. With regards to sacking him if it continues to go wrong. There will be a point where the money will moved from somewhere else within the business to sack him as SL survival is priority in order for the club to survive

While I think we have to give RM time due to injuries , suspensions plus the run of fixtures hasn’t been kind I think we need to see improvement- I felt we were against Cas x 2 then Wigan but then Wire the wheels fell off , again injuries didn’t help but missed tackles were awful
I think with a full team out we’d have a good side but we’re never seem to have a full spine and now we’re missing probably the brains of the side in Brown - we still need to perform better though
Last point on RM , I don’t think he would have been many fans first choice but maybe was the most realistic option - he does need to get the team performing soon though

Think the big issue is the spine, and now the play maker Brown injured To date 4 fullbacks, 4 half backs 4 hookers
RM has had to change virtually every game. So how do you get consistency?
Pack playing well with lots of options but our international back line has never played together and full back seems to have been disaster Yes all teams played in top 6 except Leigh
As it's been said this year is about survival and creating a new team from a new set of players with a new coaching set up in new way of playing
Have faith and enjoy the journey, but I must admit I'm not looking forward to seeing Friday

Kilop - You must live in Fantasy Land
`There will be a point where the money will be moved from somewhere else within the business to sack him`
We have NO space at all - living from Month to Month - just do the sums yourself. We must be losing thousands at the moment per month.
The Chairman has put his house up as security for the benefit of the fans and I just hope he can manoeuvre it back to himself rather than being tied to the bank before any suggestions of sacking RM.
Look after No 1 Chairman. If RM is to go then it has to be HIS decision not the Club.

This is so very negative. We all want him to succeed. If he doesn’t then, like any coach in any sport anywhere in the world, he’s replaced. The Chairman’s personal financial guarantee would be a side issue and a matter for him,sorry,but I’m sure it won’t come to that

Agree BR.
Lets get behind the club. There have been much worse times.
