Looking at the first 3 weeks games it looks as though Sky have made up their minds who they want in the GF, as Cas and Leeds are on the first 3 weeks

Don't think Salford will fancy this game much , if we are to rest anyone , probably the game to do it , wouldn't go overboard though , certainly give michaels a run out , never lets us down and IMO unlucky not to be a starter anyway, fonua back to centre , michaels to wing

Playing the strongest team would be to rest those that are carrying knocks/fatigued and playing the squad members. Remember the Warrington game last year when Radford played a side that was minus "£1million (sitting in the stands)" so lots of 1st XVII players out and beat a near 'full strength' Warrington team who'd also played 3 days previously.
A lesser player that is fresh/not injured is more valuable than a senior/better player who is carrying an injury/fatigued, it also means that those senior players can be used for the games when it really comes to crunch and have more of a chance of being nearer 100%.
Radford got that wrong last year but this year has being much much better.

I think we'll give salford a spanking tbh.

Washbrook will start 2nd row IMO Thompson from the bench. but agree with the rest

Important we win this and a chance to put a bit of daylight between us and the chasers. I think saints and wakey will lose, giving us a further 2 point cushion. I don't think salford will make the 4 come the end of the season.

Salford will be hurting after last week, and we have a wrong to right after last time they came to the KCOM. Need to punish them early on.
