Smiffs Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Pace of the game I think and we've only had 2 warm up games. Overall fitness levels are high against SL benchmark but game time is sommat else. The intensity is twice that of the championship so there will be a learning curve. We were blowing in the first half due to a few dumb sets leaving us to defend in our own half for seemed like 25 mins. Not worried to be honest. Plenty of positives. It's like a newly prompted club going to arsenal away first game. Be reet. Cas will make many teams look bad this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted February 11, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted February 11, 2017 Looking at how they finished, it's nowt to do with fitness. Castleford are going to be one of the better teams this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There'll be plenty of six-pointers that will decide the bottom end of the table. If teams win those games then they'll be fine, Salford and Leigh alike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salford Trotter Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Pity Salford didn't turn up in the first half. It could've been a different outcome after winning the second half 16 nil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MancWanderer Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Pity Salford didn't turn up in the first half. It could've been a different outcome after winning the second half 16 nil That's the worry with Wigan. Cruise the first half and ship points in the second.

Smiffs Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Personally I think it's shit. But I'm not ignorant enough not to accept they're top athletes who can look after themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big E Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Good result for the Salford Reds tonight What did you make of the throwing it directly at the tackler on the ground. Proper shithouse behavior. seesm to be happening in every game now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salford Trotter Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 What did you make of the throwing it directly at the tackler on the ground. Proper shithouse behavior. seesm to be happening in every game now. I agree, It needs to stop. The commentary team suggested that there could be some retrospective action taken as it was happening too often. Maybe it takes a 1 game ban for unsporting behaviour to send a message to the rest of the game to stop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underpants Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 If Leigh is such a RL town, and with them being back in the SL, why is there an empty side to the ground for their first match back? This is not a criticism or having a dig. Just wondering. Pricing? Hate the chairman? Can't be arsed? On Telly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
