Yep thats it in a nut shell, Salford are built to play this way and that why we r moving forward

They were a great side to watch, and drew big crowds to the Weaste.
What has the ability to draw big crowds to a pub got to do with the price of fish?

Agree. Defence is poor, kicking game is average, great backing up and can finish a try - not sure that makes a world class scrum half.
Still has a lot to learn, but put him in a good side and he could be a world beater. At the moment he gets the full attention of the opposition as Salford have little less to offer.
You are right though, his agent has built his part up much more than he deserves.
None of these so called big clubs were willing to chance their arm when he was at Widnes. Was Offiah saying that Widnes should be paying him a kings ransom? Salford have given him the chance to develop at SL level. He has time on his side and I think he will develop quicker here because he'll get more game time. Look at Tomkins at Wigan. I think he's 21 but in and out of the side. The same with Ainscough. He's not played since he scored the 4 against us.
myler hasn't played well the last 3 games, against bradford he didn't play that well, even though he created 2 tries, and both games against wigan. Whether the England call up and all the hype surrounding him is effecting him, i dont know, but i hope he turns it around sooner rather than later because when he clicks, the whole team does!

hull fc came in for myler last season, but his parents didn't want him relocate at such a young age (awaits all the hull is a dump replies)
