| After what has been a gruelling season, we at back at home for two final games. I wouldn’t be surprised if a few players are rested for these ones and hopefully the youngsters get a shot with us having nothing to lose.

| Leave McLelland at Featherstone as his experience in the Championship playoffs will be beneficial.
Wouldn't mind Walters, Mustapha, Johnson, Trout, Broadbent getting some gametime though. Give JJB a farewell appearance too.

| Hurrell is due a break and Broadbent needs to be able to cover next year.
I’d have a look at Stephens on the right wing, or possibly Tindall.
Then really whoever else is carrying knocks - would like to see Mustapha playing first team to see what he can do at open age now.

| JJB will play the last game as a send off. He said as much at the last home game. He has given great service to our club and I for one would like to see him once more in a Leeds shirt, he deserves a decent send off if only for the first 20 minutes of the game.

| Completely agree with Brodie. JJB has been an outstanding servant and deserves 1 last game in last game of the season.
We need to blood some youngsters also to look at the bigger picture. I would give Corey and Broadbent a go. Corey off the bench and Jack on the wing for Briscoe. Tge priority for the club must be to bring kids through and next Friday us an ideal chance to give them a taste of it. Two quality lads.

McLelland, Golding and Sutcliffe cannot play as they are at Featherstone after playing dual registration after the signing deadline. Mustapha still at Newcastle, Broadbent still at Batley, Trout and Waite-Pullan still at Dewsbury.

Can we not recall any? I would leave the Featherstone lads at Fev as they will get good experience in the Championship playoffs. Is Sam Walters available for first team?

Yes he is. And if they are going to give JJB a game over him just for a farewell, then it just smacks of why we have the issues we have.

It would be incredibly harsh on JJB not to give him a final game when nothing rides on it.
J JB has given tremendous service to this club

| What a distasteful comment that is.JJB deserves his farewell as a legend.This confirms why a number of people no longer post on this forum due to the KNOBS that try to monopolise it

I said if given a game "over him". I don't care about what people have done in the past, it is the past, and playing half fit has beens "at the expense" of a good plan for the future, for me shows why we are where we are.

| I think that's reading too much into it. The game itself now doesn't matter much - I wouldn't be surprised if half the team are already thinking about holidays.
Also JJB isn't your run of the mill retiree. I generally agree with giving kids a go, and he should never have played this year, but he did and deserves a send off IMO.

Fully understand what you are saying, but he spoke at the last home game and was hoping he could play one last game, let’s give him a fantastic send off to such a great servant of this club, the chap has given everything for this club and hopefully we can all give him what he truly deserves.
Gotcha, the issue here is both he and Ablett should never have been given a further contract at the end of last season, we should have been giving both these players a send off that they deserved last year, hence giving these two players contracts for this year helped stop the development of bringing in more players. Let’s hope we hear more news from Ablett, hoping he will be off at the end of the season as well

Cannot be recalled due to them being chosen to play for Featherstone over Leeds for the final games of the season.

| I would be amazed if JJB didn't play the last game/s of the season.
There is room for sentiment at this club with nothing riding on the results. These lads may be crocked now, but the reason they are crocked is because they've run through brick walls since they were teenagers for the club and for our entertainment.
That shouldn't guarantee anyone a job for life mind; but certainly a respectful farewell on the field at the very least.
The club is built on heart and loyalty as much as anything else. Some of you are little black and white in your thinking IMO.
I don't actually think Agar will take his foot too far off the pedal these last two games, but we should be resting players with serious knocks rather than risk more chronic injury for nothing. We need as many people back fit for pre-season as possible now, it's all about 2020.

| Now that we are safe, for JJB not to go out with a game at home is unthinkable.
He’s been a legend for this club, not necessarily from a physical exploit perspective, but his mental strength has been towering support for those that have played with him especially in big games.
He’s the last of the goldens, for him not to get to say goodbye would be crass and foolish when there is nothing at stake.
