Yeah Logan fantastic in Defence tonight and took his try well. Faraimo excellent again but did hit Salford player with his shoulder to the head hope he's not getting a ban and deem sin bin as sufficient. Like the way Radders rested Taylor and Minichello and gave the youngsters big minutes in the 2nd half. Connor a maverick again outstanding, love Miloudi's energy always looking for the ball, Litten looked good out of dummy half too.
Always the Optimist never the Pessimist. Glass Half full not half empty man me.

He said in the post-match interview he wanted them to experience playing beyond the point they'd usually come off and battle through the fatigue. Good management with the game effectively won. While it's tough atm this experience will serve us well in the long term I reckon.
Thought Downs showed up well, as he did against Widnes, I wonder if his uni studies have held him back from progressing more? Always held his own, looks like he’s bulked up again too recently.
Litten showed why he is a must in the 17 whenever Houghton is unavailable.
Logan did good, up against a big centre in Sa’u and handled him well, pleasing to see after his iffy game last week.
Miloudi impressive again, handful, full of enthusiasm, getting quick play of the balls and penalties. Slots straight in as a Radford winger.
Wasnt there last night but its good to hear Downs did well again. As I said earlier in the thread I thought he deserved another go after a good showing against Widnes.
The stats for the game are odd. If you didnt know the score and looked at the stats you would think it had been tight, possibly with Salford edging it. Seems like we won by being able to produce half a dozen great moments rather than dominating the game. Good to hear Logan played a lot better. Miloudi has taken to SL like a duck to water.

We dominated the first half to such an extent that we played the 2nd with an average age of 22 apparently. Radford said he wanted the likes of Downs, Fash Masi a taste of having to play longer minutes than they'd expect. Great learning experience.

Radders keeps on proving what an astute coach he is. The supply chain of young players coming through and proving their worth in Superleague is tremendous and a great tribute to the whole coaching team. If they're good enough then in Radders eyes they're old enough. The future is bright!!

As well as his hat-trick Bureta utilised that right foot boot inside from the touchline again last night to set up a score. It's a nice weapon in his armoury that's he's employed successfully a few times since signing. Finesse as well as bulldozing strength.
