| Quote: Trainman "To be honest (and it pains me to say it) I agree with Woolf on this one.
I don’t believe the Easter schedule is right for the game and hasn’t been for some time. Matches are too intense and players need proper recovery time.
I don’t know the stats but I’d wager more injuries than average occur around Easter and the weeks afterwards.
IMO one of the reasons we lose to Australia is fatigue due to the significant number of extra games we play.
I think it’s a shame for the fans who have booked time off work and bought tickets in advance to watch what is essentially an academy side and also unfair on Castleford who will no doubt welcome a smaller number of travelling fans reducing their income on the day.'"
I think our academy side play Bradford Bulls about 16 hours after the Castleford game has ended, so I doubt the academy lads will play 2 games in 16 hours.
It will be an interesting game, the other one is how Leeds will go against Toulouse nervous time for Hethrington.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| It's a squad game, Saints have got themselves in a position to be able to utilise that squad as Woolf obviously thinks this is giving them the maximum opportunity to do the treble.
He's also building for the future by giving the younger players a look at what a first team game day looks like whilst he also gets the opportunity to see where they are with their development.
Some of them might have absolute stormers of a game which in turn makes the current incumbents of that position have a bit of a think about their own motivation.
I'd love my club to be in that position.

| Quote: Karen "I agree, at the end of the day, this is a squad game and flogging your first fit 17 when you have other players available is ridiculous. The great team of Manchester Utd in the late 90s chopped and changed between the competitions to keep legs fresh. You have a squad, use them!'"
Ha ha, the great m/u kept legs fresh. I could play soccer 7 days a week and twice on Sunday.

| Quote: TheWarringtonWolve69 "The only world class coach in SL is protecting his players from an absolutely shocking decision from some nobodies who run SL who have no care for player welfare. As for a virtual academy side (sic) pretty much most of them are in the first team squad
Don’t blame Saints for having such a stacked first team squad'"
I guess we'll see how "stacked" it is after your game at Cas ??

47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

| I think it is a weaker side than it would have been, but with quite a few already injured there is little room to rotate.
Grace injured
Hopoate injured
Dodds injured
MATA’UTIA injuried
Sironen banned
Hurrell banned
Knowles banned or injured
Roby getting his OAP bus pass

He struggles with physicality at times so I suppose that’s why he is on the bench. Saints have 4 academy lads making their debut hopefully they do less minutes tonight.
We might see Bell at stand off and Moss at scrum half who played in our friendly against Leigh I think.
Not sure who’s full back probably Hill with Bennison going to centre.
