He tried to up our offer at the last minute throwing in a water bottle and some blue language but it was all to no avail sadly.

I think Hull KR owe it to Cas not to rest too many players, it'd be pretty dumb to do it anyway like others have said with 3 weeks between now and the play-offs.

Morgan told me post match he will play his strongest possible side at Crusaders as he wants to go into the Play Offs on the back of a win.

Why do we owe it to Cas? |

I reckon we will rest a few players and play at less than full intensity against Crusaders.
Should we? No, ideally. If we had a real choice.
If we were Leeds, Saints or Wigan we wouldn't. But we are not Leeds, Saints or Wigan with their 15 year super league building blocks.
We are a over achieving fledgling Super League club with an infant youth structure only just showing green shoots.
For us resting our best players in a meaningless game (for us) ahead of a massive play off encounter against Hull FC. Well, what would you do?

I think we do. After all, we have mugged 4 points off them this season, it's the least we can do! |

But only one week between the Crusaders game and the play-offs. Chance to give a couple of younger players some game time and protect anybody who isn't 100%. Still, I'd want to carry some continuity into the play-offs, so wouldn't mess about too much. Hopefully the Leeds-Hull game will be a close, tough, exhausting affair and we get the loser of that - then we'll at least be the fresher team, in theory. |

Either that, or facing the team that's already up to speed in a play-off intensity game.  |

Fair point, but we have to play our hand. Leeds, triple champions, would be the tougher game, but they will have had a cup final, a tough game against you hopefully and have lost 2 props for the season including the England captain. At some point that has got catch up with them, IMO - might not be against us though. And having beaten them twice, your law of averages theory works against us.
I half fancied Hudds without Mason, but they look to be in fine form.
That leaves you, which makes me more nervous as a mod than a fan.  That'd be a massively tough game too, especially if you get Long back firing on all cylinders - but it is the play-offs after all, it isn't meant to be easy.

I think you're overcomplicating it. You get Leeds, you lose. You get us, you win. So the latter.
