Correct but I believe it is only when there is no legitimate reason for fielding the side, Saints are 10 points clear at the top with a Challenge Cup Semi final to play the following week, albeit against Halifax.

Even if found guilty I wouldn't imagine anything would happen until next season anyway.

The joys of having a 4g pitch. Teams crap themselves when playing on it with fear of injuries to key players

In the past RL clubs have been fined for fielding weakened teams.

You can “rest those injured” as long as you declare them. It is only when the likes of Sean Long and his mate nip down to the bookies and make a few quid. That is why the RFL established the 19 men squad prior to the game.

forget London or anyone else it’s in our own hands

That's a frightening thought.

Quite right. Win our games and it doesn't matter what the others do.

Oh I completely agree, and it’s our own fault we’re in this mess. I just wondering if teams were still punished for it.

why should they be punished for it, they worked harder at the start of the season which entitles them to rest players

Saints can select who they want, they’ve earned the right to rest players at this stage if they wish by being 10 points clear.

I’ve a feeling we’ll win tonight anyway and make it immaterial what London do.

Yes. I don't agree with fining a team for a perceived weakened team. Who's to say what weaker is.
What happens when we put Hampshire and Wood in the halves because we are fed up with our first choice. Are the RFL going to judge us and say you should have played Brough so you are fined.

Too subjective. Leave it to the teams.

Jowitt
BJB
Lyne
Tupou
Hampshire
Miller
Brough
England
Randall
Tanginoa
Batchelor
Arundal
King

Wood
Fifita
Annakin
Pauli

Interesting.
That's a good team if Fifita is fit.
Hampshire is going to get pressure under the high ball. Hope he's ready.

I’ve been feeling wary about the game all day, just got here and checked the Wigan line up. I’m not going to say I’m confident but it’s not the strongest Wigan team we will of come up against.

Hampshire on the wing is a complete waste of his attacking threat, yet the flower pot men remain in the halves.

Let's just hope that Wigan leave their "Sean Wane tactics" back in the dressing room tonight. If you recall it was against them that the injuries began to happen on a mass scale. I still think it was more than a coincidence that we sustained THREE serious leg injuries that night.
