Red Devils Secure Fightback Win Over the Warriors
While the rest of the sporting world ground to a coronavirus induced halt, Rugby League put on a brave (some may say foolhardy) face and decided to push ahead with the weekends' programme. In a repeat of last season's play-off, Salford Red Devils took on the Wigan Warriors with two league points on offer.
Jackson Hastings returned to the side where he was named as Man of Steel last season, hoping get a win against the side he helped to take to the Grand Final in 2019. But the Warriors were without their usual kicker as Zak Hardaker was rested after picking up a knock. Flower and Partington were also banned after last weeks win against Hull KR.
The Warriors have a great record at the AJ Bell Stadium and knew that a win would guarantee that they would finish the round at the top of the table, but Ian Watson's side were desperate for a win to put some breathing space between themselves and the relegation spot.
