For what it is worth, my team tonight: Brierley Ryan Nene Lafai Cross / Hank Nikorima Sneyd Singleton Mellor Dudson Wright Watkins Partington Bullock, Lewis, Olmondroyd,Shorrocks For me the question has to be which Props? I do not want Hank on the bench, would rather use Jack or Wright if Rowls plays Stone.

Whatever the result tonight, it’s great that we have finished fourth and have a record crowd. At the beginning of the season the pundits predicted a 10th or 11th finish. The players and coaching staff have done an amazing job. Come on Reds!! Very true this game is somehow a fitting end to a season that no one saw coming and that had lost 500-1000 plus of the fanbase due to selling players. Glad we all stuck with it. Rowls has done a great job as have the players. Credit also to Paul King and his Ops Board for having balls and the desire to see the Stadium move through. Hopefully whatever happens tonight this is a new chapter in the rise of Salford Red Devils, like Leigh we are a top 6 club no more 'Plucky old Salford', we are moving in elite circles. Good luck tonight, Boys, we are all behind the team.

With the squad we had and know disrespect to anyone I was in seventh heaven when we reached 20 points, nobody wants us to win more than me but I am just going to enjoy the occasion all I hope is that we play to our full potential and we get our share of the 50 50 decisions That the referee doesn't need discussing afterwards that's all I ask.

Heading to Chill Factore for 5.15pm and then onto the ground for 6.45pm to soak up the atmosphere…Getting giddy now👹👹👹 Not sure I'd be going skiing before a big game Pete!😉 Are you in spoons as I can't see you? Plenty of Bet Gilroy lookalikes in here though.🤔

A few predictions for tonight; Both sides request a delayed kickoff due to traffic chaos, which is denied so as not to upset Sky Sports. Derek Beaumont parachutes onto the pitch just before 8pm carrying a Leopard-print rugby ball that he angrily demands to be used as the match ball, before leading the away fans in a spirited rendition of the 'Macarena'. Catering runs out of pies and beer entirely before kickoff. Hardened fans forced to drink miniature bottles of prosecco left over from Sale's last game. Some secretly quite enjoy it. Brierley scores a great try right in front of the Leigh fans and gets sent to the sin-bin during Leigh's next set for holding down. On Sky, John Wilkin says that despite Salford playing well this evening, it's still very unlikely that they will make the playoffs this season as they don't have enough depth or quality. During half-time, Hull FC reveal on social media that they have signed the entire Salford squad for next season with Brad Fash coming the other way. Salford win it at the hooter with an audicious solo try from last minute suprise call up, Jack Littlejohn. I can't wait! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Made me chuckle that.😁

Not confident with that bench 😂 🤞🏼 there's a method in the madness. I guess Hank maybe into 2R in 2nd half when Brierley comes on. We'll find out in around 3 hours if it's genius by Rowls or not...

I would have liked Bullock on the bench, or as a starting prop, but trust Rowley to have made the right call. All we can ask is that they give it their all.

In the lead at half time. Strong start to 2nd half and we have this.

Been a great season but no ormondroyd or bullock has cost us this evening when they have a hooker that can break more tackles than our props the proof is in the pudding!

No attack once again and are we ever going to learn that we can’t defend our way and that we need tries I’ve said it all season we have so many great players and we can score tries for fun but some reason we don’t
Either way what a season finished 4th been a tough season let’s relax and rest and see who comes in next year and hopefully the club can build on this year
