An unlikely london win tonight and expect a PR onslaught from David Hughes in the National Press

Doubt he's organised enough for that.

As if there hasn’t been enough already. 
 

Hardly an argument battling with a team playing academy lads, packed up season and so far off SL pace it’s more like a horror show. 
 

I guess the argument would be the better of the two worst teams rooted to the foot of the table and far adrift from the rest of SL. Though that would only matter in a format that doesn’t apply. London I suppose have no choice but to swing a few random shots. I don’t think Hughes would bother though for the good it’ll do. 
 

It really doesn’t matter in the end but I just hope to see one competitive game tonight. It can’t be worse than these first two disgraceful showings by Hull and Huddersfield.

Lots of teams getting absolutely battered this week, the regular season has run out of steam

Was just thinking the same. With the Wire result as well this must be one of the most one sided rounds of the season. Not one competitive game yet with Catalans v London to come.

Teams playing as though they have given in. Not a good look at all for the game.

But SL was made to make all teams equal!

Hull bottom of the league as it stands

Hull remain bottom by a single point (of points difference).

The wooden spoon will be decided on the last day of the regular season.

Looks like a case of which team loses by most! 

[Reliant Robin]

When the TV cameras focused on Grix he appeared totally disinterested on what was happening on the pitch.

I expect it to be London unfortunately, but they don't deserve to finish bottom, especially after recent performances.

Hull are this year's whipping boys, whereas Salford who apparently in recent times have not got the minerals, the fans, or the resources, and who bring nothing to super league are actually in reality, a top 4 side on absolute merit.

The board he reports to have been disinterested for the whole time he’s been in charge.

Sneyd, Watkins, Mellor, Lafai, Mcdonald, there's some real quality throughout this Salford side, definitely in with a chance of getting to the GF next month.

Absolute scenes when Hankinson's last minute effort was ruled out.

Would he have been like that if their was relegation?

I don’t think he would’ve still been in the job if there was relegation.

Think of this as a precursor of what is to come in this spffing exciting new format from mid season to 2/3rds of the season over when there are a few clubs with nowt to play for.

I'm already checking out flights and hotels. I no longer teach, so my Fridays are free for me to travel, which means I won't have to sleep in airports this time.

I've probably just jinxed Salford's chances of making the GF.

Probably not.

Not much fun living in Hull at the moment, especially with some creative Hull KR fans about...

I did but I still told the Hull KR fan that sent me it to do one.

Likewise, Tony. Got a good feeling about this.
