Really hoping the rhinos get off to a flyer tonight. If they are play off material they should comfortably win tonight.

[StandOffHalf]

Salford look really thin.

Leeds by three or four scores. 34-16

[Bedfordshire Bronco]

Holroyd and McDonnel out will hurt 

Big Tom could really do with an injury light season ....like Newman he really needs it as if either get a big one again it will hurt their careers after so much previous time out 

Will be interesting to see how going booze free will change Bentley ......I'd assume he now has a better chance if reaching his potential physically and dare I say it mentally.....hope he doesn't completely lose the mongrel side of him though 

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Leeds by 12.

[JohnM]

Really want to see a Salford victory but somehow I don't think it will happen. It is, though, only the first round, and not expecting much of a showing from Salford.

Hopefully a better game than that dour struggle last night regardless of who comes out on top.

[Bedfordshire Bronco]

Have Salford checked if Nene plans to get his missus pregnant and renege on a SL contract again ?

You'd hope so but it's a pretty low bar.

Rowley will be checking out his parking space for when he is Leeds coach in 12 weeks time if the loiners cant get it together under RS

[Northern Eel]

Can't see anything but a Leeds win, but this is unknown territory so early in the season.

Just noticed this is on Main Event instead of West Brom (5th) vs Southampton (3rd) EFL. Pretty good!

Yeah that's excellent stuff.

Good pre game stuff with Sam Tomkins and Danny Maguire then, enjoyed that.

Cameron Smith still getting in everyone’s way.

[bratman]

Poor start from Leeds, flat atmosphere as well

Cameron Smith still got the worst haircut in Super League. 

[Coggo]

Fair call

[tiffers]

Clear sin bin. Direct with head.

Not a great start from either side. Too many errors. 

[wakeyranger]

Good to try for 12 man Salford 

[bratman]

Multi camera VR is rubbish 

[Coggo]

Superb kick by Sneyd. Much harder than it looks
