Behave yourself no one’s saying we should be dominating the league but get smashed of one of the worst teams In sl history with 11 first team players is poor and there no excuses. Didn’t they beat Leeds as well,no we shouldn't be getting beat at Wakefield but we are we shouldn't be beating Catalan but we did I am not an apologist for Rowley but he goes from the penthouse to basement with some on here and don't start about bad Salford performances I have seen quite a few in my 70 years of supporting them at the start of this season I would have snatched you hand of for us to be middle of the table because if we do that we will have done well their is few on here want to get real It’s not the loss that bothers me it’s the way we lose and the excuses are fans come out with yes we have 4 players missing but they have 11 out and if what Paul king says is true we are spending near the cap so we’re not actually punching above are level. Hopefully we can get a couple in and revive are seasons.

The one thing that Salford have suffered from in my lifetime is that they are consistently inconsistent. Tonight is a prime example. We've played very poorly for a while yet we sit safely in the top half for now. We can put in stellar performances against quality opposition then go to the bottom club and get executed. This is the big problem with us and I've never seen us defeat the consistency goblin in over thirty years.
We wont win anything until we figure out how to...

I think we've missed Taylor's leadership this year. Excluding tonight, there have been times this year when we needed a captain's voice to bring some composite and elseership - second half against Warrington when they got on a roll; Wigan away when we're weren't smart enough in the last 20; when we were 6-0 down against KR a couple of weeks ago and had made our fourth knock on on 12 minutes.
We also seem to be missing Danny Orr. After how good our attack was last season, this year, with the same players, timing, depth, line direction etc have been a bit off all season. But, we were winning games with effort in defence and capitalising when we were in the opponent's 20. That's disappeared the past few weeks. We haven't been able to win in defence to then get ourselves some field position.
Really no excuse for tonight no matter who the 17 were though. 22-0 down at HT to a team avaragihg 10 points (if that) and our first contribution in the second half was to knock on from the kick off.
Luckily, KR lost tonight, but our top 6 position is in serious jeopardy if Leeds beat us next week. All the other exams in the top 6 have a points difference of +97 or greater. We're at +24, so even though it's tight, were essentially 1 point down on the other 5 teams.

Simple an exceptional attitude which we don’t have. To be fair we’ve scrapped a few wins.

Jim jalfrezi obviously thinks your not allowed an opinion when you lose to one of the worst teams in super league ever who also have 10players out injured! Agreed, we play KR Zenon looks like a world beater, Leigh play KR and smash him, it’s awful. Tells me our attitude hasn’t been right since Cas. And all fans especially investors are allowed an opinion. Some of us worked tirelessly last week to fill a stadium to then see that shambles this evening. What do you mean especially the investors,

Maurice ( & a few others - your comments are disgraceful)
We are without our spine, plus a badly missed Wright, Sarge & Lannon (never replaced) & the Invisible Man that is Greenwood.
Wakey are not without 11 - 7 of those would not get in their side tonight. They were fighting for their lives tonight and it showed.
Yes - we`ve had a bad night and like Dixon I`ve seen many - the worst being at Bradford!
Huddersfield scored their first try for 200 minutes tonight - look at the money spent - Similarly Wires - hammered at home last night v Leeds. Also Hull Kingston Rervers beaten 34-4 tonight against a team we have beaten twice this season.
These things happen in Sport and its about time our stay at home `fans` started to see the bigger picture on how we have performed this season.
We`ll be back.

We’ve been crap for 3 weeks, tonight was disgraceful. If you’re happy getting hammered off a team that scores on average 8 points a game EB fine, I’m not. Wakey are shocking by SL standards our attitude is way off. Why I don’t know.

Anyone defending the team check the tries we conceded and better still watch the game, no effort.

3 games now where we don’t look like scoring a try. Tonight out fought out thought and out tackled. It’s back to the bad old days of one man rugby and why has the line speed gone to pedestrian pace. Losing our whole spine has not helped but that tonight was unacceptable.

To your point you’d have to ask Rowley about tonight who said this was his worst game in charge of Salford. I at least appreciate his honesty.

What is going on with Jack Ormonroyd being picked as the 18th man? Our pack is lacking serious size and we’ve got a big lump of a lad not getting a game!
