I think we might rest a couple it was a pretty tough game last Friday and we picked up a few knocks, Obviously we have''t got Roby and Tai and likely Smith, players Fages and Knowles picked up knocks so they could be rested.
The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.

Thanks RIGSBY, no ones doubting your team has been quality, but with Roby in it you are even better.

no disrespect meant to Halifax but i would have thought the semi would be the ideal game to rest a few in

We've been fielding a weakened side almost every week since we played your lot on Easter Monday, most games have only been 1 or 2 players because we feel we have got some squad depth quality.
Holbrook has dropped a hint that we have a lot of tired players, we have also mentioned Hull getting the win this Friday to keep the challenge and pressure on Warrington, if you had beaten Hull KR last week and us this week then 2nd spot would have been in sight.
I think our priority is to beat Wigan the following next week to keep them borderline for 5th place, lots of games left though so anything can happen between 2nd to 8th place.

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

Two very strong squads. Should be a humdinger. Let's hope last week's slip up and home advantage give us the edge. You can't imagine Swift not wanting to put in a top performance too.

Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
