RS on you tube has said that Bentley is definitely fit and apart from Gannon McDonnell everyone else is in with a chance.
If that so we should win by 20.

Looking forward to seeing Croft and the new ones in action.
Agree with others, saints and Wigan look the 2 favourites again with Catalan but all teams bar Wakey and London have made a final since 2017, so if we get things going properly and key men stay fit we should be in with a genuine shout of a final.

Early season results can be unpredictable I think - all teams are confident and at close to full strength, with new players and there are plenty of unknowns.

Salford will be motivated but then so should we be. Think there are six ex-Leeds players in their full squad?

Holroyd, McDonnel and Gannon the absentees. Surprised TNW isnt in the squad.

Looking forward to this new season and seeing how we set up with the new spine. Hoping Akers will put us on the front foot with some fast, accurate distribution and build from there.

Agree I thought he had a good shout of a bench spot

Re: RD 1 | Salford Red Devils : Wed Feb 14, 2024 1:12 pm  

Oledzski, Goudemand, lisone and sangare probably make the four but for me he has earned a place over sangare or at least in the 21. Having said that Ruan may get the nod.

Re: RD 1 | Salford Red Devils : Wed Feb 14, 2024 1:34 pm  

Sangare will be in the 17 almost guaranteed. This will be an intense and physical game and he’s the biggest player at the club.

Disappointed Holroyd hasn’t made it but hopefully he will be fully fit when he does play again. He needed a proper off-season and hasn’t had one again.

Agree Seth, I thought TNW deserved a squad spot at least.
Maybe he`s giving Goudemand a run out after missing the KR game.
