I agree with this I think Warrington will do the same at Catalan with wholesale changes. Watts has a minor shoulder injury so wont play anyway. It will be good anyway to see how some of the under 23s step up. Its a difficult call for Radford because he will want to maintain momentum and confidence but if you put out the same squad and fatigue kicks in and we lose the game then we gain nothing. Most fans would accept and understand if he made wholesale changes and at least take the field with fresh legs and players trying to impress.

No Pryce at the home coming, think he was the only member of the first team squad not there I think.
Somebody told me that he felt that he didn't have a place there. I feel a bit sorry for him if he did think that, he has made some great contributions and apparently does a lot of good behind the scenes as well. I'd have certainly welcomed him onto the homecoming stage.

Your club got a massive monkey off their backs on Saturday
When the Rhinos got rid of their CC monkey in 2014 (and also in 2015) players were still tweeting photos of tables full of drinks and shots late into Monday evening
I would expect that your guys will be doing pretty much the same and backing up against any side the week after isn't easy
It's all about player management from here on in for you guys, you've got enough points in the bag to rest as many players as you want to and to then get them mentally fit for the Big game v Wigan the week after

I really hope this isn't true. He was laughing and joking on Franks pre-match video
