Professional performance against a scratch Salford side in my own thoughts id have been happy with 70 points and as it was not far off now point resting players foot on the throat of super league is the way forward.

The Salford player who pushed Byrne after he knocked on did the game a favour. It was looking scrappy with Wigan understandably losing concentration a bit. The bit of biff got the crowd going and the both teams picked it up.

The crowd were really good considering the one sided nature of and the Salford fans singing “Are you watching Hull KR” a few times was funny.

Leeming got the sponsors MoM and probably deserved it. 64 points against that is as Fozzie said what you’d hope for. Might have had a couple more tries if players had passed instead of kicked bjtnkverall coming away without injuries and no reason for the judiciary to suspend anyone it was job done.

My last attendance at a fixture this year. Off to Australia 🇦🇺 on 30th Sept for six weeks. So if we reach the GF I will be watching somewhere in Queensland.

We couldn’t be in better shape, obviously we are not guaranteed to win the GF but it will take a good team to deny us.

I think what I can say about tonight's game is, we were entertained. A heavy win was obviously expected, so could we put on a show? I think we did, pretty well, although we left a fair few out there, especially by kicking instead of running or passing. There was Junior's, which was marginal, to be fair, he had two outside him who looked favourites, but the bounce of the ball... some of the later incidents were a bit less forgivable, I thought, But hey, we saw off their sporadic attacks and kept a clean sheet, so plenty of concentration there. It never was the ideal prep, but I don't think we could have done much better. And of course, much of it, pretty to watch! :D

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan
