The player I'd most like to rest/protect from injury is McGuire, simply because he seems to pick up injuries more frequently than our other key men.

Looks like McDermott has decided that the centre position will be key against KR in the final?

I'm guessing he rested those with knocks

I think they may well rest Danny, this is one game where he doesn't need to be anywhere near the pitch for me. I'd have him sat in the stand with an armed guard at his side, just in case those crazy cod heads seek retribution for him "only" missing one game after Sneyd tried unscrewing his ankle from it's joint. I'd rest Cuthbo as well. It may be a tough ask to go there and do it without the above two and Watkins and Moon, but if he does rest them I wouldn't complain whatever the outcome. Wembley beckons, and getting that piece of silverware on the shelf in a convincing manner live on national TV is priority.

Saints lose so will he rest a few more?

Why? Top spot was what mattered. If your not getting that, then you might aswell be fourth.

Wigan losing would be totally different.

I'd still try and go as strong as possible from the 19 (apart from Cuthbertson). Could give ourselves two/three rounds to rest players if we win our next two games.

Saints losing does make things interesting for us though looking ahead. Looked for a while we'd be looking at a Hudds playoff game if we finished top. Now looks like we could be facing Saints.

Going on this seasons form would that be better? Or does Saints good playoff experience make them a tougher prospect than a Hudds team that always falters in the playoffs but we always have close battles with in the league?

Could be Cas in 4th if Saints maintain their current form.

Saints are falling into an enormous hole in terms of confidence, and have arguably had their easiest fixtures of the Super 8s already.

They'll do well to hang onto a top four place, teams have worked out that you just run at their left edge all day and eventually you'll get some joy.

If Wanky-Warrington decide not to be that y-tonight could make the Hull game moot.

Wilkin will make a massive difference to that side. They miss him like crazy. Isn't he back for Leeds game? There form will pick up.

Seem to remember them saying something last night about him going in for another procedure on his broken thumb this week, so not sure whether there have been further complications with it?

Think it'll be tough for Cas. Even if they beat Saints at home they'd still be behind them on points difference. Meaning they'll have to win at least one (probably two) of their remains games which are ALL away. Catalans this weekend and then Hudds, Leeds and Wigan to come for them.
