Seems like a media blackout re. the two Saints lads, wonder if the clubs are negotiating a deal to release them for this season, Saints won't want to spend anymore time/cash on their development and Wigan won't want them out of a pro environment for 12 months

Irrespective of what team Salford have out I think that you will give them a proper beating. Your first 3 games are heaven sent in terms of getting off to a good start. I’m pretty confident that you will be top of the table after 3 rounds. I don’t think that you will finish top come the end of the season but you will finish in the top 4 unless you have some real bad luck on the injuries front.

I don’t think Salford is a walk in the park as made out. They are a decent side and I imagine will be itching to settle things down on the pitch. I can see Saints getting beat in that game as they did in the pre season game with them

JV is an interesting one, I have read that he is England Academy captain and I recall on this forum that he caught the eye in the Reserves GF against us at centre.

When Salford have their full team out and are playing confidently, they're a very strong side. Rumours floating around a takeover might be announced tomorrow - if that's the case and Salford can keep their squad together then they'll be competing for the playoffs again if not top 4.
