Really Fancy Salford for this Huddersfield throwing the game last  week to get a perceived easier game will be plenty of motivation for Salford.

How did Huddersfield throw a game that they won in extra time?

We've been 3rd for about 6 weeks as well

Didn’t Salford also throw the game to avoid Catalan.

I think they've got Huddersfield and Salford mixed up?

I'd have happily taken Catalans away again after the way we dismantled them the other week. The whole aura Catalans had away from home has gone and they've got plenty of weaknesses that can be exploited.

I see Hudds as a much tougher option although on our recent form I don't think we fear anyone. Respect yes, fear no.

Hoping both teams put on a show after tonight's fiasco and may the best team win. Off to bed in a few minutes as a pub brekkie at 9am is calling me....

Has to be better than tonight's game 

It already is and it's not even Saturday yet

5 carries and kick didn't beat the Red devils last time and it won't this time. Ian Watson will need a bolder game plan to win this one

[Gerrumonside ref]

Looking forward to this one and hopefully sport starved fans this weekend check it out.

I tend to be a bit pessimistic (40 years of following Salford does that to you) and, although we have been a bit of a bogey team for Huddersfield of late, I get a different feeling about this version of the Fartowners. I think they may win today. I hope they don't, but...

One thing I do hope for is that whoever wins today goes on to win the GF. Let's break the Leeds/Saints/Wigan stranglehold on the trophy. So  I hope Salford win but I fear we may not and I hope the winner wins the big one.

Party buses en route.... the pit village of t'Huddersfield needs to brace itself for the biggest Red Army invasion since the Russian Civil War.

Just been chatting with a football fan who is tuning in - hopefully one of many today.

I lived in Calderdale for a while so always looked out more closely for the Fax and Fartown results.

But living in Yorkshire soon reminds you of your ‘correct side of the hill’ roots so I’m all about Salford today in this roses battle haha

Should get a big audience with people trying to escape the mandated misery. As long as it’s not as bad as the dross served up last night then it will be a good day for the game.

Yes, it was poor but strangely gripping too

Well, he seems to dislike anything and everything about the game, so... yes.

[The Mighty Trin]

Good luck to both teams today should be a cracking game. Looks a poor crowd...both teams deserve better after a quality season.

May the best team win  

[bobbruce]

Just watching golden point in the sharks v cowboys game. Don’t let anything happen untill I get there.

I wondered if Chris McQueen would have become Chris McKing, but it seems not... 🫤

God Save The Kweeng, I've seen it referred to as.

That was a classic example.

[Old Frightful]

Some good early stuff from Salford, albeit a bit on the risky side.
