Give the kids a run out, you never know they might just grab a win.'"
Please, feel free to re-call those with us at London, they are abysmal, certainly without a future at Leeds.
Leeds would have to do something fairly spectacular to lose next weekend, playing with kids or not.

| Final team will be same as yesterday barring injuries , i have no doubt that is our best 17
As for next week a whole host will be rested and the game will become an even money match as was the Bradford game, Cas play Thurs so can't see Mac giving them advantage of fresher players if they go through

| There's no point putting the first teamers out. They've got a cup final next week and don't want to get an injury and miss it, so their intensity will drop off, as well as risking those with niggles we need fit for the final & playoffs.
Give the young lads a chance. They're not getting picked next weekend so they've nothing to lose and everything to gain from going out & giving it 110% to show the coach & the fans that they're ready for SL.
Only exception is those first teamers either can't be replaced or who need some game time to build up match fitness and be in contention for the final.

86.jpg Let all the doubters keep doubting and those who believe keep believing.
We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in.
But you’ve got to keep believing.:86.jpg |

| Quote: Ferdy "Would agree re Hanley getting a chance, thought last week against Bradford was the ideal opportunity however we went for two back rowers!'" By all accounts Handley was responsible for his own non-appearance in the Bulls game. If he's recovered favour with McDermott then he would be an obvious choice vs London.

| Id make minimal changes for the London game, create some momentum and make sure our game plan is up to scratch for the final
Id rest Kylie if he picked up a knock yesterday and id drop Kirke and Sutcliffe who made no impact off the bench yesterday, Id bring in Singleton Achurch and Walters to make a claim for a place in the final

982.jpg [quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj]

Similarly, if you can't see the problems in Aiton's game then IMO you should start watching a simpler game.
His passing is awful at times. I can recognise that whilst also recognising the better elements of his game. Can I keep watching?

| McDermott will probably leave this one down to the players. If they have a niggle or feel fatigued then they sit it out. He will be honest with the semi starting 13 - their places in the final are guaranteed. 1 or 2 others are to play for...

| Peacock might benefit from a rest, especially if we want him to do another shift like Saturday. But then he's a machine, so maybe he doesn't care.
A lot of players have already had a break recently, so I'd keep Aiton, Sinfield, JJB etc. Leuluai may need to rest if he has a rib injury, depends how bad it is.
I think we can use our first team squad, and give people like Robbie Ward (for whom this year's final probably comes a bit son) a run. Let the forwards who missed out on Saturday (Achurch, Ward, Singleton) get a chance to play their way into the Wembley squad.
We could wrap our key players in cotton wool I suppose, but I've never been a big fan of doing that.

I didnt say he has no problems but feel I can recognise certain attributes that will make a massive contribution to the side if he can commande a regular spot.
I had a bit of a fekwit weekend with over celebrating our success and frankly some of the more negative contributions on here leading up to the game I found where really starting to me off.

Peacock was telling us that it is taking his body longer to recover from the previous game. When he was younger, he had recovered by Sunday-Monday. But now he is only getting near right by the next match. This is a big reason for his retirement and he isn't going to play on next season. This I can't blame him for after hearing this explanation and he is an amazing athlete to be still playing at the level he plays at.

You can tell aswell. People seem to miss these things because of how damn good he is.
Peacock has not even played at 50% to what he was last season, although Saturday was a big step up. The fact he is so good, is that 50% is more than enough to be better than whom he is playing with and against.
Put people still expecting him to put it in week in week out, going forward and forward, are kidding themselves. I said it the other week, that each year that passes after mid 30's it gets harder and harder still.

If you put it into context from the little piece JP was involved in Pre-Match on the BBC. On average he is hitting it up 30+ times in a match with a impact of 16g. Like a Car Crash. He is a machine, but a machine that is very close to retirement.
Resting him would be a good idea to make sure he has recovered in time.
