They've got a load of players out. They'd have beaten Wigan with a decent lineup.
Who knows they might have, then again....
I actually went to the game yesterday and for the first quarter Salford were on the front foot both in attack and defence and more than a match for Wigan in both facets of the game. Wigan's lead was fortuitous as it was inevitable if there can be such a paradox.
My takeaways from the game were that aggressive defence worked for both sides and Wigan got on top when Salford adopted our passive approach. When Salford were on top, Wigan held firm didn't panic they carried on playing their game to their structure waiting for a break in the belief that they'd eventually prevail.
Yes, Wigan seemed to get the rub of the green and the referee's calls but ultimately it was their professionalism that ensured that they collected the points.
