After their recent demolition of the Bulls, and Salfords most recent history, I was expecting a comfortable win for Fax. I can only assume they were saving themselves for some future match.
Great credit to Fax today - Marshall seems a good lad and a good coach - some good offloading throughout - good pack too & wish you well for the future.
I thought we played very well. They had two break away trys from our mistakes. So, I don't think we were showen up. One side reffing again (I don't like to slag officials but this was due) off side, laying on,,,,,,, you were all there watching at the shay. We are a good team. Bring on Leigh !
I couldn't make it today, due to working, but what's happened with our defence? We were superb against Widnes but have slipped up badly since. If we can sort it out for next week I am sure we can get our first win in these qualifiers. Magic Rock Tap, Ringmaster 3.9 % Mmm!
For the most part we defended well. Conceded some long range tries when coughing up the ball on the sixth tackle and a couple of sloppy tries.
It was closer than the score suggests, the main difference was the lack of pace in the backs we have and lack of spark at half back. Certainly our front row won the battle, Mitch and Adam were outstanding

Spot on. We lost the game today, but we were in no way out-classed. Pace on the wings was our major downfall.
Credit to Salford, they did what they needed to do.

A couple of odd interpretations of "holding down" (Adam's in particular), but tbh, the ref was Ok. I was calling things out at the game like any biased fan would, but there were quite a few blatant forward passes from Fax that went unpunished......

I certainly hope that Johnstone is back for next week and also get players back into their natural positions. Up The Fax!
