Red John Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Who's actually confirmed as out for you Sunday? What's likely team? Don't know yet. I guess it depends on how many of the injured players make a miracle recovery this week. So Definitely out: Rangi Chase, Weller Hauraki (both suspended) Most likely out Cory Paterson, Darrell Griffin (both probably suspended) Josh Griffin, Tommy Lee, Jordan Walne, Adam Walne, Luke Menzies (long term injured) Tony Puletua (in dispute, apparently) Probably out Ben Jones-Bishop, Junior Sa'u, Michael Dobson (injured last week) Jason Walton (missed last week because of injury) Jon Ford, Brad England (out on loan) Potentially 16 players (plus any others who we're not aware of) missing from a first team squad of 29. I think we'll see a few players making their debuts this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derwent Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Neither are good enough yet for SL judging by their DR appearances in the Championship this season. Greenwood hasn't done too bad but is still a way off SL level, and Gildart is a promising kid but nowhere near Championship level yet never mind SL. I’m not prejudiced, I hate everybody equally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red John Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Just an additional little info-nugget: assistant coach Ian Watson has been training this week and could be called into the squad. We'll probably then get points deducted for on-field coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gates1 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Surely under 19s would be better than playing coach. Looking at squad probably along the lines of: Evald's Johnson Caton Brown Gee Gildart Locke Fages Morley Godwin Tasi Hanson Under 19? Greenwood George Griffin Hood ? ? ? Although I reckon a few of the doubtful will play pushing a few others out/to bench. Big ask of some of the young us if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's older than Adrian Morley, so it may depend on whether they can get Saga to insure him. One of the U-19s (Ryan Lannon - apparently, the cousin of Gareth Hock) made his debut against Leeds last week, so I suspect he'll be in the squad this week. After that, it's anyone's guess. The fact that they've brought in two inexperienced players from Wigan suggests that they're not expecting too many of the injured players to recover, and they'll be reaching deep into their own U-19s to put a squad out.

Talk about right time to play a team - saying that knowing Cas we will probably go and lose anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red John Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 At the moment, it does appear that fortune is favouring Cas. We might get a better idea of how desperate Salford are when the squads are announced (although maybe not even then - they named Adam Walne in the 19 for one game recently but I'd seen him the day before with a big bunch of strapping around one of his knees, suggesting he was just there to make the numbers up). It'll be interesting to see if Ryan Bailey plays. Given Salford's difficulty in putting a squad together and our apparently non-existent fanbase, we might finally get to see if Ryan really can start a fight in an empty house.

Yeah I suspect a few more will play. Haha - Expecting another low attendance then? Dont think you will get to find out, Baileys not playing according to Powellooking. Week or two to settle In 1st.

Red John Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Attendances have picked up recently, and the feeling amongst the faithful is that they've actually been under-reported somewhat (unusually, I agree with them on this). Meanwhile, the Manchester Evening News is reporting that Garreth Carvell has joined the club as player welfare officer. What are you doing Sunday Garreth?

Red John Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 The squads are up! The squads are up! Salford: Locke Jones-Bishop Johnson Morley Tasi Hansen Fages Taylor Caton-Brown Evalds Walton Hood G Griffin Forster Gee Lannon Godwin Gildart Greenwood Cas: Clare Shenton Roberts Gale Lynch Milner Millington O Holmes Massey Jewitt Boyle Moors S Moore Wheeldon Finn Tansey Gibson Robson Maher Walton and BJB come off the injured list for Salford (although there's no guarantee either are really available) and no Ian Watson. As suggested, Cas leave out Ryan Bailey. Sensible move by Daryl Powell. He'll no doubt be aware of the rumours surrounding Liam Hood's release from Leeds, and rightly feels Ryan needs protecting from people who aren't afraid to hit him back.

He'll no doubt be aware of the rumours surrounding Liam Hood's release from Leeds, and rightly feels Ryan needs protecting from people who aren't afraid to hit him back. Ryan Bailey probably asked not to play against the mighty Liam Hood, I can imagine him cowering at the thought...or maybe Powell just wants him to settle in before playing - pretty sure I know the answer to that one! To be honest, especially if Walton and BJB play theirs still some talent in that squad and Cas would be well warned not to take the match lightly. We were dire out wide vs Widnes and still have 4 of our 5 starting 1st choice back line out as well as a couple of good forwards. Glad Gales back in, we looked dire without him. Great to see Moors back, hugely entertaining and dangerous player when fit - although suspect he wont make 17 and will be given another week. Young Ash Robson probably making debut. Hope we play him in his natural full back position rather than shoehorning him to wing. Wouldn't suprised me if it ended up been a close game.

So you are seriously suggesting a pro rugby league player has asked the coach not to play him because he doesn't want to line up against a young hooker who allegedly punched him? Get a grip!
