Salford Red Devils’ home game against Leeds Rhinos this weekend has now been rescheduled for Sunday 27th June, 1pm kick-off.

Super League clubs are eligible to postpone a fixture if they have lost four or more players to international duties and Leeds have exercised this ruling after three of their players were named in this Friday’s England squad, whilst two Rhinos players have been selected for the Combined Nations All Stars.

Salford Red Devils director Paul King said: “We’re disappointed with the outcome, we wanted to proceed as planned on Friday having had tickets on sale for a while but unfortunately that was removed as an option for us.

“Ultimately, we had a choice of playing three games over the next eight days or seven games in 28 days in August, which would have put far too much strain on the squad over a prolonged period, we already have a significant injury list.

“We are determined to put player welfare first within the confines of a crowded fixture list and we will continue in our search to bring in players to help increase squad numbers and minimise the risk of further injury.”

All those who have already bought tickets for the original date, your tickets will remain valid for Sunday. Any tickets that are bought from now until 10am online on game day, will be issued with the new date.

We understand that some of you may now not be able to attend our Round 11 home again due to this reschedule, so if you require a refund, please email [e-mail] and a member of the stadium staff will get back to you.

If you are a season ticket holder who cannot attend Sunday’s game, please email [e-mail] so we can free up your space to sell to someone else for Round 11.

Season ticket holders can still watch the game on Our League, which has now been extended to Round 14.

We can now also confirm that due to the restrictions currently in place on supporters not being able to eat or drink in the terraces, fans in North and South stands will be able to leave from 10 minutes before halftime, where they can purchase food and drink in the marquee outside the stadium. You will receive a stamp to get back into the AJ Bell Stadium and must be back inside the ground before the start of the second half.

Salford’s 9-8 victory over Huddersfield last weekend was marred by one huge error from referee Scott Mikalauskas.

Salford played over half of the game with 12 men as James Greenwood was handed his marching orders on 34 minutes, but it was fullback Dan Sarginson who was the culprit of a high shot on Giants’ Adam O’Brien.

Instead of officiating a Super League game this weekend, Mikalauskas has been demoted to the Championship where he will now referee Bradford’s clash with Widnes.

MATCH REPORT | SALFORD RED DEVILS 12-38 LEEDS RHINOS | SUNDAY 27th JUNE 2021

Salford Red Devils fell to a 12-38 home defeat against Leeds Rhinos this afternoon, in Round 11 of the Betfred Super League.

The game was full of emotion from both sides and this was demonstrated after 15 minutes, When Lee Mossop was sent off for an altercation with Konrad Hurrell. Leeds’ Bodene Thompson was also sent off during the same incident.

Jack Broadbent opened the scoring for Leeds Rhinos shortly after, touching down after Leeds worked the ball wide.

Discipline was an issue again for Salford in the 23rd minute after Jack Wells was sin-binned for a dangerous tackle. Tom Briscoe then went over for Leeds after the visitors worked the ball wide once more to expose Salford’s defence.

In the 28th minute, Chris Atkin intercepted a Kruise Leeming pass to run almost the length of the field and score for the Red Devils, converting his own try afterwards.

Five minutes before halftime, Dec Patton converted a penalty goal in front of the sticks for Salford. However, the visitors responded and scored once more before the interval, Richard Myler going over down the right.

Halftime: Salford Red Devils 8-22 Leeds Rhinos

Poor discipline was on display again four minutes into the second forty, as both Ryan Lannon and Luke Gale saw yellow for an altercation.

Broadbent then scored his second of the afternoon for Leeds two minutes later, grounding the ball to the left of the sticks.

Leeming got himself on the scoreboard 10 minutes later, bundling over down the right to extend the Rhinos’ lead.

Back on the field after his binning, Gale scored for Richard Agar’s men to the left of the sticks in the 64th minute.
