Looking at the latest press release from the club it sounds like we may be resting players v Leeds on Friday.

I truly hope this is not the case

Whilst being aware of the 'bigger picture', I feel it would be a great shame if we chose to rest players, thus depriving our players and loyal fans of the chance of the game of a lifetime. This game, although not vital in terms of our aims this season, is an excellent opportunity for the club to showcase what it has to offer, to a big TV audience, and the RL world.

Well said Alan

I understand the reason, but as a fan I would be disappointed if this occurs

I'm suspecting a p1ss poor attempt at mind games.

Still think we will put our strongest side out. It's only fair to the players and to the fans. 9 coaches already booked. Can't see them letting the supporters or the players down. All of them will want to play against Leeds.

Hope you're right Matt

WYSI , wait till play Wigan in the Semis .

Anyone who thought we were going to put our first choice team out so with the Fax game so close must want their bumps feeling!! Surely we have got a big enough squad though to have decent names from 1 - 17.

As Leeds are giving SL teams a thumping every week, do you really think our strongest team won't get a thumping Matt?
I'd put out a competetive team, but use some of our older heads and give the bright young things a rest. The last thing we need is Brierley and Kay etc. getting injured or dispirited and losing their momentum.

It looks as if a director already knows that players are being rested, it is a shame it wasn't announced before tickets and coach seats had been booked. It is hoped that Leeds take the same approach for this 'distraction' or it could be embarrassing.

Will Keighley be resting players for the Widnes game on Thursday, as they play Haven away on Tuesday ? They are only 5 points above the final relegation place, even though they are 6th in the table !

Dispirited!!! I bloody hope not.
