[Old Frightful]

Discuss the SL game between Toulouse Olympique and Salford Red Devils here.

[johnh1]

Toulouse I think. Salford I hope.

[Oxford]

I want T O to stay up though I don't want anyone to go down, that's consistency that is! Always support SRD against anyone.

T O Home advantage and on a roll .... and I'm not sure how many players SRD have to put on the paddock this week.

[Henson Park Old Firm]

Draw,

don't want to see both teams loose

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

I think Salford will win this but I'll be taking the Evens price Betfred are giving for a Toulouse victory (same price as I got for the Magic game).

[The Daddy]

Salford are playing well recently and looks to be building their form. Gonna be a tough game for Toulouse 

[Cw25]

Toulouse 12-19 Salford

[Davo5]

Salford are slight favourites but hopefully Toulouse can sneak another vital win.

[Oxford]

Salford slight favourites so hopefully they can bag this one.

[Loiner]

Both had very good victories last week but Salfords was the more impressive. Salford to get over the line here + 12.

[Harry Stottle]

This week would love a Salford win, Wire to lose to HKR, and Wakey to beat Saints, that would get things really interesting.

[Bacardi Dave]

Toulouse to win, not to lose

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Toulouse by 10.

[FearTheVee]

Salford comfortably, by 12+

Would Toulouse (Salford getting dragged back in?) and Wakey winning and Wire losing not make things more interesting?

No there'd just be a different set of fans feeling miserable, dejected and panic stricken but thanks for asking!

True. Maybe I should say it would tighten things up at the bottom as opposed to interesting. 

[DG70]

Toulouse quite strong at home but don't think they will be able to handle Salfords attacking prowess.

That article is a bit misleading, Salford have a very strong side out for Saturday. 1-7 squad numbers in the backs

It's not misleading if there are only 18 fit players irrespective of where they play or the quality of the backline.

If you notice I didn't say we're weakened because overall I don't think we are but each week something else seems to happen this season more than any other!

No not for me, I have been to Salford many times and supported them from the stands, just as easy for me to get to yours, Wigan or Wire but I much prefer how the club and it's fans are not as exaggerated and pompous as my other close neighbours.

As long as there are no 11th hour pull outs or cry offs 18 is ample with one to spare.

Now go on tell me who you really want to win, from your history of comment's I would say you wouldn't mind a T.O. victory as long as it didn't affect Salford in the long run, which I think there is little chance of Salford being in any bother, as the season as gone on they are getting more used to Paul Rowley's methods, a coach who I would say is the best offensive coach in the league, albeit his defensive strategies are somewhat to be desired.

Does the jeopardy not interest you? Especially for a club that you have a connection to?

Even if that isn't the case then surely having Toulouse and Wakefield on the same points would make things more interesting than not?
