Judging by radford's comments last week about using the squad, he'll hopefully "rest" a few next week against leeds. I'd leave out pryce, sa, ellis, mini and one of watts or paea (assuming they all come through today). A loss in the league at leeds we can take a hit on and will leave our key players fresh for the cup game

Not for me. If we can muster a win today we have an 8 day turnaround to the Leeds SL game. We put a full strength team out (Cas just proved its far from impossible to win there) and the winning momentum and mentalty keeps a rollin. They've got to come to us in the Cup!

leeds will rest a few for the league game I expect. They're nailed on for a top 4 play off place anyway and will be targetting the cup. It's only a 5 day turnaround for the cup game plus leeds have 2 extra days rest this week without factoring in the travel for us. I expect radford will rest some next week but depends how we come through what will be a physical game today. No doubt pryce will get the sheet knocked out of him again like he did at the KC

Not for me - Leeds are definitely beatable at the minute, they've only won 2 of their last 7 league games. Their league position is based on their early season form. Watching them the other night, their "old guard" was starting to look tired I felt and they goal-line defence was poor. They can still score some good tries, but they won't be GF contenders this year IMO.

They have a stack of injured players who will no doubt be back for teh cup game

Not sure they'll all be back but 3 or 4 of those would improve leeds significantly. I just think we should target the cup game particularly with 2 quick games against wakey to follow

I'll probably think differently if we come away with nowt today but if we can get a result I wouldnt want us to roll over for them at Headingley.
