| Gutted. Couldn't sleep. Felt really sorry for the players.
To get so close to the top 2 teams in consecutive weeks shows what strides have been made.
A really entertaining game.
Each of the last 3 matches has been a game of two halves.
When we play for the 80 every match we'll know we've arrived.
A big thank you to the players and everybody. A team really worth supporting

| I wondered if more of an effort could've been made to keep the ball in play after the missed Sandow penalty. The two players in goal had plenty of time to track the line of the ball, or are they not allowed to move?
That said, was a good performance from Salford and they didn't deserve to lose.

| quick question, i know its early in the season, but whats the thoughts on masilla's cardio, he's a big bloke, probably uses a lot of energy in attack, and i'm pretty sure he wasn't subbed last night, is he likely a target for opposing teams when it gets warmer?

| Quote silver2="silver2"It wasn't ill discipline, it was Mr Hicks being over enthusiastic and ruining what should have been a good game. It was his over use of the whistle that frustrated the players and caused the second half scuffle. He is simply not good enough.'"
Definitely the post of a magnanimous loser. When all else fails blame the ref.

I think you guys were really unlucky last night and on the end of some very harsh penalties. What really frustrated me being a neutral for this one was the fact that you had two drop goal attempts, and especially on the second one (I think) Warrington were a mile offside! They then march down the field and they get a penalty for Dobson being offside. Fair enough he missed the conversion but had you been given the penalty at their end, then I am sure you would of nailed the Penalty and come away with two points.'"
But we'll conveniently miss that the attempted block of Sandow's successful drop goal came from one of the three markers at the play the ball.

| Poor discipline, but game management was to blame to me. Those 2 rushed drop goals, first one there was still plenty of time to go. Just play out the set, get a decent kick in, try to get repeat set.
Going for goal at 28-12 when we were still on top, easy with hindsight but I thought should keep going for the try.
Could see wire getting on a roll, and they did.
Gutted, absolutely hurt like hell. Positives there to be seen, but I just worry we have 2 tough away games, we MUST win at least one of those now.

| People saying a draw was a fair result.
Me being an honest chap thought that even a draw wasn't a fair result, Salford were by far the better team on the night.
What happened is, (i agree witht the topic) ill discipline.
Hicks was consistently poor last night, i can take that a little because he didn't really favour any side.
I 'get' why he binned Currie, he was nipping it in the bud before it got worse and in hindsight it makes sense, the incident itself was soft but the context behind it was spot on. Carney was an idiot, that drew in other players to the mêlée.
Murdoch-Masila was drawn in too, he was obviously picked out as the key man and was niggled in almost if not all the plays he was involved in.
Salford were cruising and composed until then, then you lost it mentally.
Should have battered us but beat yourself.
A draw wasn't a fair result, a win for us certainly wasn't, that was a smash and grab at its finest for us.
Unlucky guys, love your new side, very good balance throughout and playing GOB at fb is a masterstroke, it gives him time on the ball which he needs, his kicking game was fantastic last night and he should have been your go to man for the 1 pointer.
Hope the Doc fights the SC issue that came out today too, he has a passion for this sport and is trying his best at a considerable personal cost to move it forward.
Good luck guys, love the new attitude and your playing style is very easy on the eye too.

| Poor defence from both teams.Salford had the chance to close the game out with a healthy lead but didn't. Still it's a big difference from last year,all you can ask is your team competes the whole game and Salford did just that.

| Main problems for me last night was once again putting a back on the bench. Jordan Walne got injured and didn't play second half meaning we only had 1 interchange forward on the bench. In tough conditions like that it would take it out of any pack and it did. The pack looked knackered at the end and Warrington got on a roll.
What time did Evalds come on the pitch, 70th min? then what a complete waste of a bench spot!! Surely 3 forwards and a hooker would have made more sense last night.
I know Tim Sheens has forgot more about rugby than I know, but this one really confounds me and seems to have cost us the game.

| This is possibly where we miss an old wiser head, think someone like a Morley would have helped steady the ship last night.

| One thing tonight demonstrated clearly was the need for another big prop, Sims and hill were immense imo along with Dodds. Our props just aren't big enough imo. The sooner we find another one the better (if we can). Just my view. Oh and I thought the ref was crap.
