So after getting through to the semi-final of the cup, it is time to divert our attention back to the league for 6 weeks, starting with Wakefield at home on Friday.

Do we think we should rotate the side a little, maybe bring in Griffin, Masi, Downs, and play Turgut for longer minutes so we can still be fresh against Wakefield who will have had 8 days rest? Big game this in the race for the top 4 - but we need to be aiming for 2nd as a minimum for the Home draw in the Semi's. I think Leeds will beat Cas, so Friday is a crucial game

[list[/listYou handled cas well yesterday.

But if an injury crisis at trin atm so although I hope we win it looks nailed on for hull.

Kirmond, arona, Johnstone, bjb, tupou, fifita, Miller - half our first choice injured atm.

Along with - batchelor injured and Walker playing on one leg last week.

If we have a few of those bodies back we might make it a good game but I thought you guys looked sharp vs cas and despite the rest I fear it will be a tough day at the office for trin. Not willing to fully write them off though on how they've played this year.

You won't hear about our injuries though as we aren't called Wigan lol

Yep this is were you have to utilise the squad.

I'd defo look to freshen up. 5 day turn around after playing in that it would make sense

Sounds like Sneyd will be back.

Think it's possible we will see Hadley miss this against his parent club too.

Harsh but I think he only gets in if someone has a niggle or needs a week off.

Got to keep the squad fresh though. Kelly could do with a week off imo.

Just heard Radford on the radio saying that Sneyd is back in contention as he's had full week training with no jabs and no reaction or pain to his foot. Also says Ellis is now back in light training

Tough decision if it wasnt for the recent busy schedule, but i'd definitley play snyed, connor done nothing wrong, but with wakefields injury list, id be mixng it up a bit and resting a few. Be good for fitness levels for the ones whove not played many minutes lately to

Agreed on it being a tough decision and not one I fancy making. For me Connor has done a great job, taken his chance and deserves to keep his place for me.
That said its a demanding sport physically and may be an option to give Kelly a rest and go with Connor & Sneyd?
It would even be harsh to drop Michaels to put Connor back to centre were he was also playing well with Mahe back on the wing.

All the years we've waited for one decent half and now the coach has a dilema to choose which is great for us.

The question is do you keep as is until a players performance drops or do you change it (downside you a player off thats played exceptionally well)

Possibly just rest anyone with a slightest knock, give them a week off, and give the fringe players a chance to step up again, which they have done pretty well recently, Im thinking Manu deserves a rest, and probably try keeping mini fresh, massive players for us, I'd like to see Bowden starting again, thought he was very good sunday and deserves a starting spot, maybe bring griffin in for fonua, give him a chance to prove himself, whilst giving the beast a rest, the more players fresh and in form come back end of the season can only be a good thing

is green fit? if so him masi and tugut who didn't play many min, also taylor didn't play many min so we can rotate the forwards, maybe give Kelly a rest? look to get griffin in the 17 also, we have a good squad maybe the time to use it?

I would probably look at giving Carlos a rest and maybe Shaul and Washy

we've been doing bits of rotation in recent weeks, mini was rested one game, houghton's illness gave him a week off, green out for a couple etc. i wouldn't be surprised if Kelly sits this one out and maybe manu.

radford knows he can trust the likes of fash, downs, and masi to step in and do a job now so it gives him a bit more leeway when it comes to resting players. Logan is also on the comeback trail i believe
