Disappointed to see Anderson has done the very Nathan Brown thing of changing more players round than is necessary, trust him atm though so hopefully we will get the two points.

At least it won't be difficult to read where the majority of Salford's high kicks will be aimed...

Liam will play big minutes?? good - we can run at him then!!! defensively we are tight and line speed is good atm so we can cope with his running from dh. Same with Paterson - he may be good with ball in hand but defensively hes a lazy sieve by the looks - and lockes stats make grixs look good!! As an overall picture Id certainly say our squad is better if we aren't just looking at the obvious in your face stuff - cant win if you cant defend!!!!





hughes to centre might be nice to see going forward but could be a massive waste imo - hes too good defensively to shift him out.

Hughes was going really well in the second row at wigan and didn't they try move him to the spot? Pretty sure second row is his prefered position.

Murphy did very well at the right position when covering Leroy with his dead leg last year.

Rewarding broughton for going out training, getting behind the lads playing and having the rite work ethic is the correct option. Wood and grix and Bruno went out and proved themselves, now broughton is doing it! Good attitude from the squad bar one lad who is no longer part of our squad

Hughes played centre at Wakefield and did not perform too well.

Broughton has waited patiently for a game and as a specialised outside back would be the obvious choice to come in. Murphy will slot into centre easily enough.

I always thought Hughes started out at centre and to be honest we're not exactly bereft of options at centre if we needed someone .



Agree Re Broughton earning his chance by being patient, couldn't imagine a former hooker going to play at Oldham cos he wasn't first choice and biding his time !!!.



It's a nice option though when we can bring in a player like Jodie to cover...

dont understand a few posters wondering why murphy has gone to centre to replace cudjoe, its the logical move with broughton ready to come in too on the wing.



broughton was due a game this easter too, been out at oldham like a few others have and look how they returned!



just hope he performs now, will be abit worried when the high balls go over his way though

Interesting to see lunt is playing 80 mins in the Derby- suggests he's not backing up Monday????

think he will, most of our players will be playing with a days less rest than lunt



lunts fitness levels are very good too, when hes not injured!

well back down to earth today with that loss!



anderson said we needed a ball with handles on and hes not wrong, just couldnt keep the ball... and sorry but if you give salford that much ball your not going to win.



we beat warrington then go and lose this one





we just dont seem to learn that without the ball you dont win!



well done salford, hope the fans were on the 3/1, always seem to beat us once a year... got in our faces again too.

I would like to reference something I mentioned before the game, Andersons dealing of an inured player.

I really question why he did what he did regarding the Cudjoe injury.

Last night Broughton did nothing wrong what so ever, however I think everyone would agree that both Jerry and Murphy had their worst games so far this year.

I put this down to Anderson taking his very Nathan Brown approach to injuries. For me, it should be without question Cudjoe out, Connor (who plays centre every now and then) in. Wardle and Murphy has been a great partnership so far this year, so if you dont have to change it, THEN DON'T! It is causing extra unrest in the team than is needed! This is not an issue with Broughton because as I have said he did fine last night!

disagree, dont think it was the decision to leave connor out and move murphy to bring broughton in that was the problem at all



murphy was solid again



broughton was poor and wont keep his place
