Salford. : Sun Aug 25, 2019 12:35 pm  

Yes I know lots are still celebrating but with the short turn around no training till Tuesday we must have big changes for this game. I’m expecting Clark to definitely miss out and Burrell, Livett and Westwood to play and maybe a few others to.

Re: Salford. : Sun Aug 25, 2019 12:45 pm  

As many have said, including fans from other clubs, it is disgraceful that we should have to play an important game on the Thursday after Wembley. Yes Sky effectively funds the sport but there are 10 other clubs playing this week who have had a weeks rest. Surely one of their fixtures could have been televised. The RLL / Super League are gutless.

As Karetaker has said, there must be changes if nothing else to support player welfare. In another universe I would rest Coops, Hilly, Clark and Ratch but we will see I suppose. The downside is that a win at Salford would be extremely useful if not much needed.

Re: Salford. : Sun Aug 25, 2019 12:55 pm  

All these to play?

Walker
Westwood
Tasi
Smith
Thewlis
Dean
Moran
Livett
Burrell

Heard Austin may not be back even for Wakefield.

Yeah i agree with this, get the squad changed for 1 week and come back strong the following week.
I'd let Austin have as long as he needs, there's no need to rush him so let him heal.

It’s ridiculous we have to play 4 days after, it’s going to massively dent our chances of keeping second place. A lot of players could of done with a couple days rest but looks like they will have play abit busted..

We might rest a couple of forwards and expect Smith to come back in half back ahead of Hughes. We owe Salford after embarrassing us at the HJ a couple times this year. Shame that we will have to do without Austin for a few weeks longer.

Last year we tonked Hull after losing the CC, I think it'll actually be a lot harder after winning the CC.

I don't really mind though. Yesterday was incredible and we'll start building momentum to the playoffs soon.

I always go on there when I’m feeling down, it helps to cheer me up

I'd pick the strongest possible side unless of course players are injured.
Can't afford to lose this one. Off you go again boys. If I was a player I don't think I'd want to be rested.
Forget saving them for a bigger game later on. This is the big game.

I could no way see the same 17 as Saturday, they were running on empty at the end and the short turn round is not enough recovery time after a game like that,a lot different than the Easter period.
