No Peacock again for this Friday then.

What's the story here? Nothing mentioned about injuries or anything, but not played in any of the preseason games, and now out for Friday.

We're doomed!!

Is this where the Peacock off to Warrington rumours will start

Giving him a long rest? Good to see Eastwood in the squad.

McClennan probably looked at it and thought it was a game we could win without our main prop so choosing to give him as long a rest as possible.

Sinny's got him dropped due to an altercation in training.

Good to see the captain weeding out the bad wood for the new season.

He is finally getting the rest he needs. If he can be saved for the larger games then he will have a bigger impact that normal.

id be interested in knowing whether a rest at the start of the season is more beneficial than a rest mid seaon. lets hope he gets a few of those too

Arrogance

It's a good thing for RL. Hopefully this might limit the score to 60. You should have rested Burrow, McGuire, Sinfield and Webb as well.

i can see him getting plenty of rest this season. i think bluey would have done the same last season had he had the same squad

Look we all know he keeps telling everyone he plays too many games

Resting a key member of the pack before we even play is a new one tho

Doesn't do any good for my fantasy team.

Probably correct. But no comments from the club kind of raises suspisions thats all.

There was no explanation as to why he did not play in Diskin's testimonial, and now no explanation this week as to maybe missing this Friday, or nothing now it is confirmed.

Probably just the rest, but surely the club could say something?

I would of thought we would need him more for Cas next week, give him an extra week's rest. He will be chomping at the bit come Next Friday

I heard that Peacock is only going to play against Wigan, Saints and Bradford this year in an attempt to prolong his career and increase his impact when he does play

Suspisions of what?

What do you want the club to say?
