It could have been a whole lot worse.

Next up the visit of the Leeds Rhinos..

A bad day at the office , you were always gonna be up against it especially after we(Wigan) beat Les Cats last week convincingly, but don't lose heart you have a good team and a good coaching set up , there's no reason why you can't bounce back against the Rhinos next week , but you will need to continue to play the way you have been playing prior to today to get anything out of the game.

good display from the Catalans - very disappointed with the Reds as I was expecting more, especially when you consider the amount of Catalan first choice players out.

Salford looked very weak at the back especially down their left with fragile defence when attacked at speed - great try from young Josh who showed Briscoe-like speed to finish.

it has to mentioned that Mr Alibert was terrible and gave some really dodgy decisions against the home side - he certainly wan't biased for the french outfit....the margin of victory should have been higher but for some ridiculous decisions IMO

good to see the Salford fans who were great - well done lads (especially the shivering two in red skintight suits !) - you are a credit to your club

A lack of first-choice players affected both teams, ours in the very area you've highlighted (according to our coach that is, I haven't yet seen any of the game).

Catalans had 7 first team players missing. We struggled with just both wingers out. Proves the desperate measures of our squad. Seen one try on you tube scored by Millard, Holdsworth or Patten couldn't make it out should of bounced him into the Med. Well if PV's the defensive coach he's responsible for getting players defensive qualities right regardless if their playing out of position, communication is key.
