| So far Price as always put his best team out apart from resting Hill and Ratchford after Denver. So Leeds now in middle 8’s and guaranteed 9th so would expect to rest players next week. Do we field a strong team and go after 2 points to distance Hull further or rest for semi final hmm.

Do you not want top 4? We have to play to win every game as points now could be the difference between 2nd/3rd 3rd/4th and even 4th/5th.

| Try and take any two points on offer as they are worth the same pre and post split and let's see where we stand in a couple of weeks time. IF we make the final those two points might be valuable then.

| Beat Saints next week and every chance of being 2nd. BMM, Goodwin and Westwood back next week. Be interesting to see what Saints do as Catalan will be no push over now.

| We should want every 2 points on offer. It's tight 2nd - 4th and we need as much distance to 5th as possible. That will allow us to be fresh for the business end, ad potentially a Wembley appearance but I'm not expecting an easy semi by any means.

| It's not about the points for me. It's about building momentum and continually working to leave no scope for improvement...we still have to much.
Plus I feckin hate Saints.

| We'll probably get beaten at Saints even with the first team so may as well play the reserves there, then laugh and say we didn't take it seriously when we lose, and put the big guns out for the Challenge Cup semi.
Then also we can make Saints complacent for when they play us in the final.

| We are not mature enough yet as a side to be able to purposefully rest the side for one game and raise it the next. We are still struggling for form and fluency so we should go with our best. It will be a welcome bench test too to see where were are against the best in the league.

| Tough decision, probably with no obvious right or wrong choices.
For me I think since we are within sniffing distance of a Wembly final I would rest Coops and Clark. It's unlikely we will beat Saints at this stage of the season and since we will not be exactly disrupting an outstanding run of form with a settled side, I would rest the best deserving cases - probably in the forwards.
Of course we don't know what side Saints will put out. They are so far ahead of the rest of the league, they don't need the points to finish top so we can not assume they will play their strongest side either.
Perhaps give Justin a ring ?
"Gday Justin, we have a terrible bout of flu over here. Looks as though we might be 6-7 players down this week"
"Sheesh Steve, we have also had a bit of bad luck. I think we might have had some bad roo meat on the barbie at the weekend and half the squad will be out"

| I think no team are highlighting the importance of consistently winning than Saints ,don't they only need 2 or 3 wins in the super 8s to grab the LLS. A couple of early wins & they can start resting players for the super 8 semis.

| If we go into a game without big forwards we heighten the risk of injury having guys trying to play above their weight.
We go at it full on and stuff em.

| Didn’t Redford admit “gambling” on players returning to get the 2 points this weekend? My view is try and win the next game, don’t bugg*r about.

| Our form has dipped since the quarter final win, in order to regain it we need to keep our best team out there each week (barring injury / serious knocks). How many times have we seen a team, on the verge of a knock out match, rest players only to have it backfire the following week?
I doubt that we'll get a win at Saints but it is important that we put in a good performance - then who knows.
