Quote gerr'emonside="gerr'emonside"Rest those who need a rest - We looked shot today and in the second half at wembley and its obvious the cup run has flogged us.....We need to give a few lads a break so there back in tip top form for saints.
The obvious ones who looked knackered and out on their feet today were Coles / Paat / Carmont / Hansen.....I would rest all of these and would also rest both tomkins.
Bring in O'Carroll / Goulding / Marsh / Amos and give Mellor and Russell and Crosby a run...should stil have enough for the crusaders with that and gives a few of the fringe young players a chance.
Id go with a team of
Russell, Charnley, Goulding, Marsh, Amos, Decon, Finch, Prescott, Leuleui, Lima, Hoffman, Farrell, O'Loughlin Subs: Crosby, Mellor, McIllurm, Mossop'"
With the promotion of the Heritage Game does that put more pressure on the coach to pick as strong a team as possible? I am in favour of a weakened team, the result has no effect on other SL teams no team would be disadvantaged by a Crusaders win. But there would be a backlash if a weakened team lost and Hull do manage to beat the Wire
