Salfords former Warrington half-back Gareth OBrien has the utmost respect for his old club but that will not stop him doing his best to inflict on them a first Super League defeat of the season. The 24-year-old came through the Wolves academy and scored 19 tries and 78 goals in 62 appearances for them before opting out of the final year of his contract at the end of last season.OBrien moved to the new-look Red Devils on a two-year deal and, after playing a key role in their promising start to the season, will be aiming to undo his old team-mates with aid of some inside information when they put their 100 per cent record on the line at the AJ Bell Stadium on Thursday night. I have a huge respect for the Warrington club - theyve made me the player I am today - and Ill definitely take that respect into the game but Im going to give my all for my new club, he said. All the action from the Super League clash between Warrington and Wakefield. I know the boys at Warrington pretty well and anything I can share with our lads to maybe tip them up on certain aspects of their game is only going to help our chances.Its all about preparing for a game and if youve got inside knowledge on your opponents, youre going to share it with your team-mates.OBrien, who had loan spells at St Helens, Castleford and Widnes during his time at the Wolves, says there were no hard feelings when he agreed with head coach Tony Smith to part company.I did have a year left on my contract and I could have stayed but we both thought moving on would do me the world of good, he said. It was all done in a professional manner. Me and Tony had a chat and there were no hard feelings. It was about what was best for me.He said my opportunities at Warrington this year would probably be limited and he felt thats not what I needed at this stage of my career. Playing each week is what I needed to do to improve. He gave me an opportunity to look for a new club and Im happy with the move.After spending virtually his whole career in the half-backs, OBrien is enjoying a new lease of life at full-back for the resurgent Red Devils.It gives me the freedom I dont really get as a half and Im enjoying it, he said. Im still learning the position obviously but the more I play there the better Ill be.I played a bit of full-back in the academy but its very similar to a half now. Full-backs nowadays have got to be able to run, pass, kick and theyre probably the strengths of my game. I need to work on my defence but I am enjoying the new role. Highlights of Wigans win over Salford at the SW Stadium. Warrington assistant coach Richard Agar admits their former player will be one of the threats to their unbeaten record.Salford have obviously seen Gareth in a slightly different role to the one he played here and youd have to say so far hes grabbed it with both hands, Agar said.Gaz has got good vision and good skill and hes been a very prominent player for them. Weve talked about him in our preview, about what a good job hes doing for them at full-back. Hes doing a terrific job for them.Warrington have won their last seven meetings with Salford but OBrien believes the tide is turning.We set a goal at the start of the season to make our home stadium a bit of a fortress and were unbeaten at home, he said.We know the dangers Warrington have and weve got to be on our game defensively. If were good defensively, we can cause any team problems when weve got the ball in our hands.Salford: Justin Carney, Michael Dobson, Niall Evalds, Mark Flanagan, George Griffin, Josh Griffin, Greg Johnson, Josh Jones, Craig Kopczak, Ryan Lannon, Tommy Lee, Rob Lui, Ben Murdoch-Masila, Gareth OBrien, Matt Sarsfield, Junior Sau, Logan Tomkins, Adam Walne, Jordan Walne.Warrington: Ryan Atkins, Jordan Cox, Ben Currie, Mitchell Dodds, Brad Dwyer, Rhys Evans, Chris Hill, Jack Hughes, Benjamin Jullien, George King, Tom Lineham, Kevin Penny, Joe Philbin, Stefan Ratchford, Matty Russell, Chris Sandow, Ashton Sims, Joe Westerman, Gary Wheeler.Watch Salford v Warrington live on Sky Sports 3 HD on Thursday from 7.30pm.

Nike Air Max Axis Canada . -- Cam Newton pranced into the end zone, placed his hands over his chest and did his familiar Superman pose. Surrey 329 (Burns 101, Wheal 4-100) and 248 for 3 (Sangakkara 84*, Harinath 57)drew with Hampshire 582 for 9 dec (Ervine 158*, Alsop 117, McLaren 100, Footitt 6-161)Scorecard Liam Dawsons big chance seemed tailor made. His one over on the third evening, according to Sean Ervine, had both gripped and turned. The greenish pitch, as it has been at The Oval all year, was barer at each end. Ten Surrey wickets to take, to prove that he is not merely a part-timer (that most pointed of cricketing barbs) and his readiness to tour Asia with England, which he seems ever more likely to do, despite his modest returns. Whats more, for a cricketer constantly sold as a great team man, here was a chance to spin Hampshire to a win that would propel them to fifth.James Vince - who confirmed that he has not had talks with Essex, and that the first he had heard of this was when someone tweeted him - agreed. Dawson bowled the Vauxhall Ends first 23 overs of the day, then, after a two-over trundle from Will Smith, returned to bowl 12 more, before rain brought a draw - that ensures Surreys Division One status - a few minutes early. Hampshire have a week off, and need a favour from Surrey - who play Durham at Chester-le-Street - to ensure that their season remains alive when they host Durham on September 20.For Dawson, it all started so well. His fifth over of the day saw one grip, turn and take Rory Burns inside edge; Tom Alsop, a very fine short leg, dived forward to take a smart catch. He had his 15th wicket of the season, but all that followed was plenty of frustration.Dawson did as Dawson does. He wheeled away, finding some - albeit slow - turn from the footmarks, which sat wide. There were chances, but the outside edge was seldom beaten, and funky bounce only appeared late in the day. Kumar Sangakkara, who batted as beautifully as ever, cover drove him to the fence every time he overpitched, but four of them in 83 balls hardly seems a disaster. Parsimony and consistency are Dawsons currency, and an economy of 2.63 - a tick under his seasons figure - was testimony to that, but there is no mystery and little magic.England know they are not selecting a man ever likely to rip through a side, even if Joe Root is said to have found him the toughest bowler to score off at nets, and his elevation will come as much thanks to his proficiency batting against spin, as his ability to bowl it. This was Kennington, not Kotla, and what turn there was seemed sluggish, but he troubled all the Surrey batsmen except Sangakkara. Arun Harinath saw a catch loop up into space close on the leg side, while Steven Davies could have been given lbw or caught at slip. With many men round the bat, Dom Sibley did not look comfortable..ddddddddddddDaws was very unlucky, said Vince. He bowled accurately with good pace, and looked like creating a lot of chances. He could have had four or five. Vince might have reflected that Mason Crane, Hampshires main spinner, would have been handy, but he was left out due to the green surface on day one. One of Dawsons rivals for an England spot, Gareth Batty, who also found little joy in the surface, agreed with Vinces assessment.He bowled nicely, said Batty. For the last two or three years he has improved tremendously as a spinner. I always thought of him as a batsman who bowls reluctantly, but he bowled 34 or 35 overs today and that is a man who wants to push his skill and his craft forward. Thats brilliant to see. I love seeing people who want to bowl spin. He was a bit unlucky, and the pitch didnt really help him, despite a couple of wide foot holes. That means that the good players get outside the line and snuff out that one area on the pitch. Credit to him, he stuck at it well.While Sibley and Harinath played fine hands before both being brilliantly caught down the legside by Lewis McManus, Sangakkaras was a masterful, controlled innings, full of cuts and flicks, drives and dabs. Late on, he was joined by Davies, another man Surrey are trying to tempt into signing on for next season, for a typically classy cameo that reminded fans of their value. Batty confirmed that talks were ongoing with both, but not resolved.I greatly hope we can get something sorted because they are both very much part of our group and very, very fine players, he said. We are ridiculously lucky to have someone of Kumars standing within the game - not just on skill but how he talks to our young boys… its invaluable.One such young player, Zafar Ansari, looks set to return from injury against Durham, as Surrey - who are the only team bar Nottinghamshire with nothing to play for in the final round - look to cap a remarkable recovery. As ever, there were pointed words for rivals from Batty.Its the manner in which we play our cricket that has pleased me, he said, we havent gone down the route of other sides in rigging surfaces to guarantee results. Weve got big runs and applied pressure. If you are winning games on the surfaces we have played on, you are not a million miles away from having the skills to play international cricket.Whether Dawson now has the skills to play international cricket remains to be seen. Before we find out, with a turning deck expected at the Ageas for the visit of a Wood-and-Stokes bolstered, seam-heavy Durham, he has a huge role to play for Hampshire. ' ' '
