SALFORD : Sat May 11, 2019 4:50 pm  

A result I didnt see happening,1st half of usual rovers poor tackling,cant string passes together,dumb penalties,the 2nd half wow.Not a great game by any shape of the imagination,but great result.
Thought hall was good after his early nose injury,drinkwater had his best game for us,mulhearns try saving tackle,vai vai showed what I suspected,there is a player in there when he can be bothered.Linnett was very good and I believe if we dont sign atkin were missing a trick.Good 2nd half though to be fair would have preferred it to have been a league came,but well done an a win away,lets repeat it at huddersfield.

With the amount of players out that was a very good result.A kind draw tomorrow,get a few key players back and the season looks a bit brighter. We are a better side than some give credit for but the injuries have really hampered our cause.Will enjoy watching the games tomorrow and with Kear inspiring Bulls the Cup seems exciting again after that snorefest last night

Hopefully breeds a bit of confidence and optimism among players and fans alike.

Nice to get a result over Salford for a change as well - their 17 looked pretty strong on paper.

How did Harrison get on starting at drop?

His ball handling was better than you suggest!

Was the 1st subbed after only about 10 mins,maybe picked up an injury.

Trust me to find a negative! I hope he’s okay. What is it with us and props this year?

For the last 3 seasons we havent had much luck with injuries,but props looked ok pre season till the injury curse struck,I thought we seemed quite strong.Maguire had his best game of the season and lawler was rock steady as usual today.Bradford at home would do in the next round.

I disagree with the pre season prop situation!! We went in with two props who don’t play and are injury prone with Scruton and Jewitt. Not blaming them but it’s a reality

Think TS has a policy of playing youngsters in short spells. That was why others had to play big minutes.
