Are we going to go to blow them away and play the full first team 13 or play it conservatively and use some of the youth?

I don't think we have a lot of option, play with what we have got, rest who need resting etc . play who we can.

Hopefully not going to be too hard a game.

I agree with the whole showing respect and that, but would a long term injury to say Dobson or Kopzcak etc worth what could be a pointless match with a long season still ahead? If we are and most likely will be after points deduction in the qualifiers we need the strongest team we can. I would rest Dobson, BMM etc But keep Lui on as he needs game time( might slightly contradicted myself). Give players like Williams, Bent, Haggarty, Andrade, Wilkinson etc a go.

Depends on how much the Dr and coaches want to get to Wembley. If you want Wembley, then It's full strength.
I would rest all the players carrying knocks, pack the subs bench with the young lads, try and get the game won by half time. then bring off the top men e.g Dobson etc

Yeah Fairplay i guess. I guess we'll see.

I'd properly bring in Bibby, Wilkinson and Haggerty.

1. O'Brien
2. Evalds
3. Bibby
4. Sa'u
5. Griffin
6. Wood
7. Dobson
8. Kopczak
9. Tomkins
10. Griffin
11. Lannon
12. J walne
13. Flanagan

14. Wilkinson
15. A walne
16. Haggerty
17. Joseph

If Lui is fit, I'd have him on the bench with a view to only playing him if necessary.

I'd go with that but would rather have Dobbo dropped and Lui play.

O’Brian
Evalds
Bibby
Jones
Griffin

Wood
Dobson

G Griffin
Tomkins
Haggerty

Lannon
Murdoch

Flanagan

Jospeh
A Walne
M Wilkinson
C Foster

I would rather have Lui than Dobbo. Lui needs gametime after the 4 game drought.

Great to see Hauraki in the 19.

Team will have a good mix of youth and experience. Phil Vievers is quoted in the press up in Cumbria as looking to bring in a few more of our youngsters on loan. Maybe Wilkinson and Bibby will join Gee.

Didn't get to the game on Saturday and not seen any highlights. Would anyone be kind enough to provide a bit of a summary on how the game went? Would be nice to hear how some of the fringe players went even if it was against a C1 club. Cheers.

They all went ok.

Bibby - took his two tries well and made some good meters with ball.
Lannon - was very solid again
Haggerty - is a big lad and took us forward well
Wood - Was probably man of the match. Offered us something we've not see from dummy half for a long time (albeit against poor opposition)
Joseph - Took some stopping
Krasniqi - Again was solid in attack and defence
Hauraki - Didn't really notice him to be honest, but good for him to get some much needed game time under his belt

All in all it was a decent performance, nothing spectacular, but job done. It gave the fringe players some much needed game time and also allowed us to rest a few of our senior players so all in all a good day.

I can understand the quality of opposition we were playing against on Sunday wasn't the best however for me that was one of the best hooking performances in a Salford top i've seen in a while. Wood offered something that Tomkins and Lee have not offered this season really. That was his 5th or 6th senior game so i don't want to get too far ahead of my self as he still has a long way too go but for me he gets his bench spot for Cats.
