SL RD 6 | Salford Red Devils (A) : Fri Mar 11, 2022 10:50 am  

This is a must win game. Lose this and Agar needs to go.

Re: Round 6 Salford away : Fri Mar 11, 2022 10:59 am  

I’m in two minds on this one.

Do we give the players a chance to show they care or do we totally mix up the team to show some players they aren’t automatically picked. With that in mind ive selected two squads that we could go with.

Redemption side.

Walker
Fusitua
Briscoe
Sutcliffe
Handley
Austin
Sezer
Oledski
Leeming
Prior
Bentley
Martin
Smith

Tetevano
Gannon
Dwyer
Thompson


Your chance lads side.

Walker
Fusitua
Simpson
Broadbent
Tindall/handley
Austin
Leeming
Oledski
Johnson
Prior
Bentley
Martin
Smith

Tetevano
Mustapha
Oconner
Dwyer

Just to add if Agar is still in post by Friday, we’ll know from the first 20 minutes of the game whether he’s lost the dressing room, anything other than us coming out all guns blazing will tell me all i need to know

Agree

Agree with what you've said Christopher. Its a really tough one for Agar. Pick the same team and lose and he'll be roasted. Pick kids and lose and he'll be roasted. Given his previously conservative selections in many games I expect the no/few changes team, but if I were him I'd go for broke.

It probably comes down to whether he see Salford as a must win? If so he'll no doubt think there's more chance of the experience team delivering.

Who would you replace him with?

Youd have to put Long in charge until a replacement was found, I would argue that if the current performance levels persist Ling couldn’t do any worse at the moment

Shane Flanagan has recently accepted a role as List Manager at St George, but is open to a return to Head or Assistant Coaching. He’d be significantly better.

Isn’t Agar well connected at St George? Maybe he could get him over so he can go work upstairs

Prior will probably be banned due to the concussion police trying to turn RL into a non contact sport. Our defence seems to be on point in that regard.
