Just got to Newcastle for reserve game and looked at score and absolutely shocked

I’m genuinely gutted for the poor sods that gave up their Sunday’s and travelled to Manchester, at a decent cost too I’d imagine, to watch these.

Sounds quality, need to get back into it myself.

Believe me its the best ever venue I have fished, spotlessly clean, super pegs everyone has a decent platform, fall out of the car into a peg it's that close, constant bites all day and massive carp, bags up to 100 plus better than fleets dam and just £30 for the season

Just seen the score, ouch! Plenty of people called it but I never thought it would be that bad!

Re: Salford away : Sun Jun 26, 2022 4:28 pm  

Pretty shocking really. It’s particularly sad in that I can’t think of another current Super League side who could have this score line put on them.

I watched Croft play for Newcastle against Batley a couple of weeks back. He got torn a new one by part time players. The lad is a way off regular super league rugby yet.

Sorry to say but Minns directly dropped off 3 tackles that led to try’s today. Croft also was terrible.

It tells the story when 8 or so if their try’s came down the centre channels.

Salford were always going to throw the ball wide today and they did just that and we didn’t prepare for the obvious.

Gaskell standing hand on hips throughout was poor too.

After tonight Jowitt should be back in and I dread to think it Hall is injured…

When you look at the fact we have TJ, Tupou, Lyne, Kershaw all is unavailable it’s a big ask.

Batch needs to go back to right centre. Was head and shoulders our best player tonight again. Keep him at right centre because on tonight’s viewing I wouldn’t play Minns/Croft again.

At least Max might get a game next week but if we lose it'll be his fault, be back out again and Gaskell reinstated!

Re: Salford away : Sun Jun 26, 2022 4:33 pm  

When I saw the score I thought, surely we had at least one sent off!

A double whammy really due to the point difference.

There were a few decent players in the forwards today. Crowther and Batch were the pick.

We just got absolutely mullered on the edges time after time. We played 5 drives and give them ball back and they spread it wide and scored at will. Dreadful game.

Mins,Croft, and Gaskell were shocking to day talk about fans building up players .Just watch most of first half and left .Seen it to many times over the last few years The players could not be bothered ,so I could not be botherd.watching .The worrying thing is when we were getting 75 + points put passed us over the years it was against teams that were in the top 4 .Not a team that we would have gone above if we had won .Will go down next week for Wigan match but depends on attitude to how long I stay .They just look like a team who all want away and no pride in the shirt
