He wasn't training on thursday but obviously that'll be over a week before the Wakey game so he might be available.

I'd go with:

1. Golding/Watkins
2. Handley
3. Watkins/Keinhorst/Ablett
4. Moon/Keinhorst/Ablett
5. Hall
6. Sutcliffe
7. McGuire
8. Singleton
9. Aiton
10. Peacock
11. Ward
12. Delaney
13. Ablett/Sinfield

14. Burrow
15. Mulhern/Yates
16. Achurch
17. JJB

Any news on Hardaker?

Sal, if he's out for 8-10 weeks like someone's claimed then i'm cancelling our bet
(only kidding)

Rest who you like, most of our players don't have any fight or passion at all.

NHS, pffffft.

You only go private?

I would for the distress if Hardaker was out for a long time

Might need some meself, £50's a lot of money!

There to keep you keen until the end of the season

Think Golding had surgery recently - Not sure if he is fit??

Handley has played FB in the U19s before, perhaps he'll get a game there and someone like Ryan Jones will get a game on the wing?

Given how little decent ball Leeds centres are seeing at the moment anyway, I'd be tempted to stick Watkins at full-back where at least he'll get some room to run on kick returns.

Keinhorst at right centre, Ablett at left, Singleton at 13.

Alternatively, next man up at full-back would either be Liam Sutcliffe or Nick Rawsthorne neither of whom have a great deal of experience in the position.

Have we tried giving Kris Radlinski a call, see if he fancies coming out of retirement to play for nothing?

The only player I would rest is peacock, this entirely due to his age. Whilst wakey are struggling they have a new coach so the players will up to impress him.
If B Mac thinks the squad may be tiring or jaded just throttle back training or give them a few days off.
We can't afford to drop any more points, so it's safety first for me and play the whole squad minus peacock and anybody suffering injuries.

We can definitely afford to drop more points. We need to be in the eight - at the moment almost a mathematical certainty. We need to give some of our top players a rest because (as we saw after 30 minutes against Wigan) they are knackered. Assuming we've no Hardaker, Briscoe, Moon or Delaney I'd go:

1. Watkins
2. Handley
3. Ablett
4. Keinhorst
5. Hall
6. Sutcliffe
7. Sinfield
8. Singleton
9. Burrow
10. Yates
11. Jones-Buchanan
12. Achurch
13. Ward S

14. Ward R
15. Leuluai
16. Mulhern
17. Walters

Rests for McGuire, Aiton, Peacock & Cuthbertson. All key players we need at 100% in the eights, all of whom looked knackered against Wigan.
