Salford v Swinton Lions Friendly preview


Salford fans will get their 1st taste of rugby in 2022 as old rivals Swinton Lions come to the AJ Bell Stadium.

New Salford Red Devils Head Coach Paul Rowley will be without upto 11 squad players due to injuries and covid protocols so it will be a early opportunity for the squad players to make a impression.

With Salford Red Devils womens team playing their 1st game against Swinton Lions ladies on Saturday it is a historic day for the City.

Captain Louse Fellingham and Victoria Kini are two players who have played at the highest level, their presence will be inspiration to the ladies who will grace the Red shirts of Salford this season.

Swinton Lions Men and Womens teams on Saturday will be tough opponents, Coach Alan Coleman will be looking for a upset as the men play their 1st game of 2022. 

The lionesses will be a tough opponent for Salford ladies Martina Greenwood, a former England international has created a strong squad and this maybe be a real firecracker of a game.

Both clubs are hoping for a big crowd and some good rugby to start pre season.

The ladies kickoff at 11:45 and the men follow at 2pm.

Hull KR 12 Salford 0 Match Report

Devil In The Detail SRD · Golden point drama, Player of the year nominations and all roads lead to Hull KR Saturday nights all right for fighting, in the words of the song by Elton John. Both Hull Kingston Rovers and Salford were fighting for a place off spot. The Robins were in the box set, two points in front of Salford in fifth place but after Warrington lost at home to St.Helens on Friday night the Red Devils had destiny in their own hands. Victory would take Salford above Warrington and level on points with the Robins going in to the final round of matches next Friday. A 7:30pm kick off on a Saturday night is a pretty rare event in Rugby League. It seemed to add to the excitement and anticipation of both sets of supporters. Outside the ground the atmosphere was electric. These two sides have a bit of history between them in recent years and it’s fair to say Hull Kr have definitely had the upper hand in recent meeting between the two sides. The Robins have won eight of the last t

Salford 34 London 4 Match report

Salford Red Devils were made to work hard in the victory over London on Sunday at the Salford Community stadium.  Without  Ryan Brierley, Amir Bourouh, Cade Cust and Jack Ormondroyd in the starting 17 Paul Rowley selected Chris Hankinson at Fullback Joe Shorrocks at Hooker, Chris Atkin continued his half back partnership with Marc Sneyd and a graduate from Salford Red Devils development academy Nathan Connell took his place on the Bench. Salford had early pressure as repeat sets on the London line tested the broncos line. Unfortunately for the Red Devils  they were unable to come up with the score. As the 1st half went on it became littered with errors from both teams causing it to be a scrappy contest nether side really got hold of.  Salford thought they had opened the scoring when after a period of pressure resulted in a high kick from Marc Sneyd being collected by Salford Centre Nene McDonald who dived over the line in front of the South Stand. Unfortunately for Salford the video re

SALFORD 26 CASTLEFORD 22 MATCH REPORT

Devil In The Detail SRD · Paul King Pop up Podcast Cast your mind back to Salford’s first Super League match at the new stadium. Just over twelve years ago, 4th February 2012 Salford played Castleford in the snow losing 10-24. It was a horrendous day weather wise and for me personally it took over two hours to get home at full time. A lot has happened in the world of Salford Red Devils since that day both on and off the pitch! The weather was fine and dry for this fixture with a hint of spring in the air. After a very encouraging display at Leeds last Friday a home fixture was the perfect opportunity to get 2024 up and running.  Paul Rowley made just one change to his starting thirteen with loose forward Joe Shorrocks replacing the injured Oliver Partington, while Castleford fielded an unchanged starting 13 from last weekend. The Red Devils dominated the opening stages with plenty of possession as they battered the Tigers try line. Former Salford hero Malcolm Alker was proudly rememb
