What we reckon? Resting players or go all out for the win?

Golding / Walker
Briscoe Watkins Sutcliffe Hall
Lilley McGuire
Garbutt Burrow Singleton
Ward Ablett
JJB

Parcell Delaney Keinhorst Mullally.

Give them all a week off - there is nothing to play for. If they don`t know the structure / planned moves by now , one more week is not going to make any difference.
As our structure and moves are so basic ( MAC OUT ) , at least , apart from Galloway, we will have a full strength squad to pick from.

Momentum is what's to play for. Throwing a game when there are only a maximum of two left beyond it is madness.

We've rested players a couple of times this season, and come back flat the next week, so I'd play a strong side with all the pivots who McDermott wants to play in the semi in the team,and then maybe rotate a forward or 2.

Seem to remember resting everyone before cup semi final and that didnt work.

You go into big games battle hardened.

Sure rest Cuthbo if his eye isnt right but lets not have the madness of Wigan.

Next week we might have to go to minute 80 in playoff semi so lets be prepared for it.

Yeah I go as strong as possible only resting those that a carrying an issue (I know nearly every player will have knocks and injuries at this stage of the season but some will be worst than others)

Full strength.

Were not on TV either are we?

CBA with sHuddersfield at the best of times.

I'd only play Walker if fully fit. We need him fit for the semi final. I'd probably rest one of Cuthbo or Parcell too.

Personally I would go with Golding for the semi.
Has he been dropped, rested or injured this time?

What is the point of playing key men like Cuthbo, Parcell, Ward, Watkins etc , or flogging the workhorses of the team any more . The only first teamer that should be playing is fatty Ferres.
Take note that Powell is resting 4 or 5 of his key men this weekend - look and learn.

Yes, it worked so well for us before the cup semi final with Hull. I've never believed dumping games the week before major games is a good strategy, having seen Leeds try it several times under Laughton, never mind our experience in the last decade showing that form in the last few weeks of the year counts for everything.

We did before the Cup SF and it didn't work. Maybe we should wait and see what the SF results are before lauding the team who is resting a load.
