A good win especially losing Lockers after two minutes. Summats break and kick inside was great. His kicking generally was good and better than TL's (but then that has never been a strength of his game).



Thought the young forwards did well.

Sammut to start from now on, we look much more of a threat with him on the pitch.

Leaves us with the Leuluai/Powell conundrum though, I thought they both had pretty solid games today.

Thought Leuluai looked very sprightly in the first half but his decision making was poor. Squandered a three man overlap with a nothing kick early in the tackle count neat the line in the first half. Put in a few nothing attacking kicks throughout. Just another reason to play Summat.



Powell ran from dummy half more then once. Something he never seemed to do under Wane. I wonder if he's been told by Lam to give it go? We are also scoring tries down the right.



This is all good but I think there is way to go yet for us to look anything like as cohesive as a team as Saints.

Well, albeit temporary, the table looks very very strange this morning!

It could look even stranger by 16 Aug if we beat Hull and Warrington are more than 6 points clear of 3rd place and in the CC Final when we face their reserves

on 16 August.



3rd place is a distinct possibility now.

What a difference 5wks makes eh?



I thought Powell and Clubb were brilliant tonight, can’t find fault with their performances recently and making some of our, mine included, comments on here look a little silly. Long may it continue.



Williams was outstanding as was Marshall who repeatedly proves he is a born try scorer at any level.



Notwithstanding the fantastic set up for Hardaker’s try I didn’t see what Sammut had to offer last night.



We’ve gone from unlikely relegation contenders to unlikely Super League winners in 5weeks. It really is quite remarkable considering we were debating whether finishing 6th/7th would be called a “good season” when you balance it up against a poor start.



I still feel the real test of how far we’ve come and improved will be v Saints on 12th July. I can’t say I expect a win but equally I wouldn’t have said 5wks ago that we’d be sitting in 4th before the end of June.



As for Lam, I’m still not 100% convinced but he’s certainly doing no harm to his credentials at the moment.



We go again!

A good win last night. I thought that we did well to weather an early storm when Salford were making easy meters and we were scrambling from the off. we took a while to start going forward and that was largely through the backs. Hankinson had some sound relieving carries and the backs seemed a bit more coherent. Perhaps it was the warm temperature but both teams looked a bit lethargic. Our forwards are still not making much in the form of post contact meters and on the edge we were looking for a man to give an option whilst the ball carrier ran down some blind alleys. When Sammut came on we tightened up and started to look more cohesive.

The funniest moment of the game was the interception. Was that really the player who went 80 meters for Leeds just a few weeks ago, or am I mistaken?

Catalans at home aside, that was probably the best performance of the season so far. Defensively very solid for the most part and more variation in attack. The right side has, over the last 2 games, started to look like it has points in it (although this seems to have taken away from the left so there's a conundrum that needs sorting!) and team spirit has improved massively from earlier in the season.



Given we were still missing Flower, Farrel, O'loughlin from the 2nd minute and the long term injuries/gone and were playing a lot of high squad numbers I thought we looked sharp and focused. Tired towards the end but that was to be expected really.



Not quite the 80 minute performance we are all looking for but certainly a satisfying one and a positive move in the right direction. Not unreasonable to say there still seems a lot of improvement in this team too. Good signs.

It was Inu that made the break he is descriptively slow looking at him and Lolohea they are in poor shape for professional players. i cant believe that he went in for that try for Leeds

I thought Powell was our best player and Partington looks a little better but I don't agree with several posters re Clubb who probably made one run where he seemed determined to break the line his remaining runs were again for me slow and lacklustre.



I cannot see Lam starting with Sammut as he wont drop TL or Powell to allow Sammutt to start.



I thought Salford were appalling with the number of mistakes they made and if I'm totally honest although we are playing better to think that we are 4th in the league sums up the poor general quality of the competition.



Am I correct in thinking that ZH took one of the conversions last night? If so why did he do so?

Some negative people on here. Cheer up!



Look at it this way we are 4 and have not hit any form. We didn’t play that well last year until towards the end of the season.



Hardaker took the kick as Hankinson took a knock and was having treatment.



Go have a drink enjoy the sun and enjoy being 4th

I was wondering whether the plan is now to have Zak kick on the left side of the field and Hankinson on the right.
