| I think we should go all out for this game, we've not won the league yet and that's better done as soon as possible. No doubt Bradford will see this as the perfect opportunity to try to turn their recent bad form round & pick back up again just as it all starts to matter so will really be up for it. Should be the best preparation for The Qualifiers too playing against a team as good as Bradford. Also if we win then it'll be good to knock Bradford's confidence even further and boost our own before The Qualifiers as Bradford are likely to be one of our biggest rivals. There's no need to rest players, win at Bradford and we have 2 meaningless games, one against Doncaster who've only won once then a week off (thank you very much Warrington Wolves ), we don't need to rest players this week.
Bradford 16 Leigh 38

| Seeing the points difference and the fact our last game is Doncaster we could lose the next two and still finish first. I think Bradford are just as likely to rest a few if they have conceded already they will be 2nd anyway

| We should compete in all three games, it isn't a good idea to enter the middle eights after coasting.

Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

| Can't see this squad, or coaching staff even contemplating 'coasting'.

| I don't think Bradford are lacking in confidence,more fatigue than anything else.Sure PR will pick a team to play on that factor.

In 2001 Widnes had raped Dewsbury for players and coaches after their mid season implosion, at the death we lost our only true quality back in Turley.

| I think we will go up there at full strength and lay a marker down! We have fresh players too come back in goulden and Higson! Just me but I'd like too see full strength and then all the main men rested against donny! Looking for a good following I'm taking a car full let's take more than Bradford brough too us cause they brought a tremendous following!

| Don’t see any need to change what we’ve done all season, Rowley has used the squad well and I expect he’ll to rotate a few to keep them fresh and fighting for places, but other than that.

| We need to do a proper job on the Bulls Sunday. Psychologically a win would be a real advantage for the Middle 8's.
I don't believe Rowls will change too much either. He'll want to win well at Odsal, especially.
We'll be there singing the lads on, all being well.

True but would rather get it won as soon as possible. Win at Bradford then rest players for the other 2 games if they need it. Or better still (as we get a week off anyway) put Neil Jukes in charge like we have done in the past; give him a go at coaching a couple of games with a short turnaround.

Is there a weeks break between the end of the Season and the start of the middle 8s?

Yes it'll take a week to sort out who plays who and when

Yep, it's when the Challenge Cup Semi Finals are so not completely rugby free. The Super 8s fixtures are being announced on the Wednesday after the Doncaster game so that weekend is free for everyone to sort themselves out.
