We have won the league leaders shield and we have nothing to play for against Saints.
Would tony smith play his full side if he was in our position or would he rest some players?

It might be an opertunity for the fringe players to see what they can do.
Carmont , Hock , Micky Mac , Mossop, Finch even Sam look like they have had to much game time and would benifit from a break.. Any player carrying a knock could be rested. A brand new compertition starts after the Saints game and the winners are crowned champions of Super League. Rest them or play them???????????????

It'll be interesting to see the side. Wane has said in an interview in the WEP that we won't be at full strength. Wheather he's just meaning because we're without Prescott and Lauaki or because he's resting a few more only he knows.

I'd possibly look at giving Carmont a break and dropping Mossop for a week but I'd go with a full side other then that.

I disagree with some comments that the players are not looking tired - I think some of them have looked tired for a few weeks now and this is very worrying at this stage of the season and reminds me of last season.

Massive game for Stuart Fielden if he plays.

I think our superior fitness was a big reason for our comeback against HKR, we looked full of running still, while they looked exhausted.

We don't look tired. We look like we lack concentration in attack and defence at the start of games. Also our pack don't seem up for it at the minute, defence down the middle has been shocking (don't think its down to tiredness, more an attitude thing). I think having such an unsettled side for the last 3 months has played a big part.

[size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.' [color=red:2md8k3b3] Shaun Wane's post-Grand Final speech. 5th October 2013.[/color:2md8k3b3][/b:2md8k3b3][/size:2md8k3b3]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_16304.jpg

'"

He's also tweeted that he's not injured, they just want to give more game time to players coming back from injury ahead of the play-offs.
