What a weekend. Not an ideal hangover game next weekend - second place away. Great opportunity to rest and rotate but think this might be our first and maybe only defeat this season. Hoping Powell will go with something like: Jowitt Olpherts Booth Croft McGillvary Lawford Kay Bowden Smith Cozza Ashurst Pitts Bain Doyle Shaw Uele Wood |

Now will be the time to see how our team are professional & focussed, only one injury in the cup game, ie, KY Rodwell, so same team may well run as this is a big league game, not experimental time. |

We have the squad depth to be able to rotate a few players and still put in a top performance. The Widnes game is a great chance to put proper daylight between ourselves and the rest of the league. I'd expect Bain and Olpherts to play. |

It's just a game. No reason to rest players unless they are injured. |

Thornley had a problem in the second half with his ankle, I don't expect him to play so Croft will get a run. |

Or Booth will get a run. That's still only two players to replace. |

There’s a few players to rotate in next week but I expect the majority will be the same. Players like Bain, Croft, Olpherts, Lawford and possibly Booth or Smith could get a run but I’m sure the players will all be ready to go for the game. They’ll have celebrated Saturday night but there’ll be almost a full week to get their head and bodies focused. |

Yesterday's game was not a physically demanding affair, in fact the second half was a stroll. Other than the pomp of the occasion, the players have 8 days before Widnes. If they are fit and have earned their team place ,they should play |

You know very well what I mean. All RL games are tough it's a demanding sport. But as games go it was not a war of attrition and a blood and guts battle. This team will suffer harder physical encounters during the season and the players being full time professional should be fit and ready to go against widnes |
