Quote: gerr'emonside "Rest those who need a rest - We looked shot today and in the second half at wembley and its obvious the cup run has flogged us.....We need to give a few lads a break so there back in tip top form for saints.
The obvious ones who looked knackered and out on their feet today were Coles / Paat / Carmont / Hansen.....I would rest all of these and would also rest both tomkins.
Bring in O'Carroll / Goulding / Marsh / Amos and give Mellor and Russell and Crosby a run...should stil have enough for the crusaders with that and gives a few of the fringe young players a chance.
Id go with a team of
Russell, Charnley, Goulding, Marsh, Amos, Decon, Finch, Prescott, Leuleui, Lima, Hoffman, Farrell, O'Loughlin Subs
With the promotion of the Heritage Game does that put more pressure on the coach to pick as strong a team as possible? I am in favour of a weakened team, the result has no effect on other SL teams no team would be disadvantaged by a Crusaders win. But there would be a backlash if a weakened team lost and Hull do manage to beat the Wire
