According to the ESL Website Salford are without Wilshere, Talau, Myler, White and McGilvray?

Salford coach Shaun McRae is also wrestling with a number of injury problems as he prepares to return to one of his former clubs.

Goalkicking winger John Wilshere has been ruled out with a knee problem and, with Willie Talau, Paul White and Dean McGilvray still on the sidelines, McRae has called 20-year-old former Wigan Warriors winger Andrew Thornley into his initial squad for what would be his engage Super League debut.

The Reds are still without scrum-half Richie Myler, who has a hand injury, but second rower Ian Sibbit and winger Mark Henry are set to return after sitting out last week's 48-18 home defeat by Harlequins RL.

All massive players for them especially Wilshere, Myler and Talau

You like Cloughy dont you

Well he has the ability to cover a number of positions.

Yea but two at once

He is that good!

Well, he keeps getting fit and then breaking again. I think he's another Scully but well before Scully became a Scully, if you see what I mean.


Yup. Another Eastmond, or Scully, or Glassjaw, or whoever else we seem to have frequently disappearing.

I hope Mr P isn't going to be another one! He's been on fine form since joining us. It was almost becoming unimaginable not having him score in a match!

"Glassjaw" is more than a bit unfair.

The bloke has been a great signing and has done his fair share for GB as well.

I think a bit more respect is due.

I know where you're coming from and he has been a great servant to the club, but he does seem to get alot of injuries, buth then again comes back from them quite quick too.

Sense of humour for table 2
