Wasn’t the reason SB left Souths because he disagreed with the head coach giving preferential treatment to a star player? This would certainly resonate with what’s happened with Vaughan and Musgrove.
2 further points on this
a) I’m stretching the definition of “star player” to include Musgrove
and
b) I have no idea what has happened just adding 2+2 in a WWWE wrestler mathematical manner and comining up with an answer (which is of course Tuesday).

No, first game back. Musgrove and Yates started with Vaughan, Harrison and Philbin on the bench.

Is Daniel Okoro still with us. I know he spent a bit of time back at Bradford on loan but just wondering if he will be back in the squad next year.
Similar with Lucas Green. From memory he was at widnes on loan
Looking forward to seeing a bit more of Luke Thomas next year. Hopefully by the start of next year he will be fully recovered.
We have Wood and Whitehead. If we can find
2 or 3 diamonds in that group of 5 it would be fantastic.

Player ratings for Wire players at Wembley were not great but can't remember Bullock being worse than others. "Stunk the place out" seems harsh. Not seen since Yates arrived & relatively few injuries in the forwards. Difficult to imagine him returning to Wire after his time with Salford but he's got a contract.

2 knock ons in crucial areas of the field, one leading to a try. Penalty for a high shot. He was hooked off after that iirc. We discussed it at length on here.

I was looking at a couple of independent reviews of players performances and his were no worse than others. I think I can remember a few mistakes. If he "stunk the place out" he was not alone. Still think the term "stunk the place out" is harsh ... but it is a forum & we all have different views & standards.
