Field will find some space at a point in this match and when he does he will be away for a try, just waiting for the tired legs.
Yeah Salford haven’t been great.
Unforced errors, forcing the offload.
Wigan have defended well but need better options and faster tempo in attack
I think it is so stop start in terms of knock ons (mostly Salford) that it is quite hard to up the tempo quickly but I hope the second half can change that.
Encouraging to see our forwards are on top, not that it is a big challenge. I don't rate this Salford team one bit... Touch wood I don't eat my words.

Well i thought hicks was pretty good until wigan went 14-0 up…… hes then decided to completely ruin the game and stop it flowing……. Hate refs that do this……. They have got to realise the game is not about them

The commentators on Premier Sports are dreadful imo. So much whinging about anything they can think of, so uninspiring.

It wasn’t malicious but you can’t do them kind of tackles.

Henderson has been good but pryce just says anything he wants( namely saying wigan knocked the ball out of their hands when he clearly hits the arm)……. Unfortunately for us there are a lot of anti wiganers out there who only talk about decisions we get…… saints can score 3 or 4 controversial tries but commentators never seem to harp on about thst

Price sounds like a bloke in a pub vault. Gives an opinion on things he can't see. Henderson is pretty objective as is Kev Brown.

Don't think he's much choice to be fair. Salfords ball control is very poor.

Happy it's not us though.
