I seem to recall reading 1980 somewhere, so 32 years ago.
I think we'll have joy attacking Hurrell and making him defend plenty. I'm also hoping those coming back are under-cooked. It was clear some of the Catalan player who came back weren't up to match speed.

But remember the high flying Wigan team, a run of 40 without defeat, then they came to the Willows led by Dai Young

I don't want to put a downer on things, but does anyone know the last time we won at Saints? Has anyone on here actually seen it happen? 42 years ago, so no never seen it happen. Seen it very close a few times at both Knowsley road and more recently, but never quite crossed the line. No better time than tomorrow |

Every defeat at Saints has brought us one game closer to our next victory!

Does anyone know how many tickets the club has sold?
Need to run at Hurrell and the other forward who will play centre tomorrow. Percival is a great player but is coming into this game after being out for four months, possibly on the wing make him work kick it in and behind him. We need to be solid in defence and expansive in attack to tire their forwards out.

The good things about watching Rowleys team is that there’s generally an improvement from the previous game, there’s always some surprises and we’re always in with a real shout

Easy jjr, that's bordering on posivity  Agree though, just can't get my hopes up about today. We need to stay humble like the coach and just enjoy the moment me thinks. Nervous already |

Always positive about the rugby on the field K. Each week, barring the odd exception, things improve…the defence, Brierley, @ckers, even Sita.
Rowley has something magical
As he says mate..enjoy the ride.
I really do want us to face Leeds and see Helen Skelton interview Myler when we beat them🤣

Great effort that. Hope we go again next season with the bulk of the same squad.

Proud of this club this season. They've been fantastic and defied the odds. You put Croft and Ackers in that side today and we get to the GF.

Or with a decent ref; from the off high tackles , off sides.. Kendall as was seen when he did a couple of internationals just not up to it at this level
Sadly that’s what let’s RL down in this country.
I rarely have a go at a ref but that was poor and at this level to me not acceptable; never seen a match with so many high shots not punished.
BUT without Croft and then Ackers to be within a hairs breath was phenominal. At the beginning of the season I was looking down but Rowley and the boys always looked up. Brilliant guys and thanks for great entertainment and effort this season. Proud to be a Salford fan

Saints are never offside, JJR. They are just 'quicker off the mark' than any other team. Thought you would have known that by now.
