Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Poor start for Salford, having to field a reserve side due to financial problems

I don't think they 'have to'. I think it's a rather petty snub to the RFL, and I hope they're punished for it.

Very good first half in the Wigan v Leigh game, no rustiness on display. Shows you don't need a lot of scores for an enjoyable match.

Certainly was. Last game to finish with that score was in 1979.

as salford fan i am gutted they have reserves out today. they could get slaughtered. the league have withheld permission to lift salary cap. means almost entire first team squad are excluded. seems as rfl punishing club. which may or may not be fair.

Well Hull FC look far better than last year which is a relief because this is shaping up to be a very competitive season looking at week 1 results. Although is this showing who had the best preseasons and normal service will be resumed after a couple of weeks

No, Salford could've played their first-team squad, this is simply Mr. Rowley choosing to make a ridiculous point. A ban and/or a points deduction is the appropriate response from the RFL here.

Big comeback for Salford?

Good to see them putting in the effort in the 1st half despite the drubbing they’re getting.

Be interesting to see the post-match interview. Fairly sure the BBC won't go with "So, Paul, in a never before seen display of unity, the entire sport thinks you're a disgrace." Kudos to the kids that played though, they did their best. I hope Mr. Rowley doesn't have to face their mums later.

As suggested on the blog of the esteemed @kev-eats-owt this is a place to discuss all things relating to rugby league. The Superleague season kicks off this weekend, the NRL in early March and hopefully we have a world cup to look forward to in the Autumn.
