Head Coach, Paul Rowley says he has ‘a lot of gratitude’ for the players who took the field in yesterday’s heavy defeat against Hull FC.
The Black & White’s took advantage of a Salford side formed of young players and loanees to strengthen their top six chances.
Leigh Leopards hooker, Brad Dwyer was the Reds’ sole try-scorer on a painful afternoon at the MKM, of which the Salford faithful continued to back the team from minute one to eighty.
Speaking post-match, our Head Coach said: “It’s been like most weeks really – clearly a gulf in class. It’s a sad situation and that’s my resounding emotion at the minute. I think with the week we’ve had it’s been particularly tough. The last couple of weeks has been the toughest.
“Losing Ryan (Brierley) and Jack (Ormondroyd) in the week was probably, I’m not saying the final nail in the coffin, but it was a tough one to take. Probably the last of our group in terms of experienced players that have departed the club.
“I’ve got a lot of gratitude for the lads who turned up on loan from other clubs with the attitude they’ve shown, but this sport is too hard for people to meet each other for the first time on the bus on the way to a stadium like this, against a team like this.”
