I’d be up for resting a few & think that’s a decent shout. I don’t think Peet will go that way though.

I would rest Field, Cust, Farrell, Byrne, Bateman and Mago. Just concentrate on the cup, we won't miss these 2pts.

I find this a slightly odd approach - if you were going to rest players it would have made sense to do it vs Salford IMO.

But a conditioner (or even in condition) I ain't

With Catalans losing yesterday it gives us a bit of leeway, worst case scenario we're joint 2nd after 11 rounds, I think most of our supporters would've bitten anyone's hand off for that at the start of the season

Full strength for me. We need confidence and cohesion between the new spine.

I’d probably go Halsall at centre but I think it’ll be Bibby again but with a view to the semi final I’d feel more confident with Isa and Bateman on that right hand side, defending near Harry Smith, than I would if it’s Bibby or Halsall in the centre spot.

I agree. Let's keep the pressure on.

I'd consider resting Faz, Byrne and Bateman for this one. They've all played long minutes and I think we can win this one without them.

I think we need to take a risk and rest/rotate players so that we go into the challenge cup semi with the best chance of beating Saints.

I am not going to state here which players get rotated because the club will know who is carrying an injury, whose recovery is taking longer, whose stats in the match are lagging etc.

Happy enough to give anyone a rest who really is in need of it, but we have an 8 day turnaround between Wire and the Saints games. We'll have some players in the Semi who haven't played too much rugby yet this season either, so I'd rather give them a runout against Wire in a team which is pretty close to the same team that we'll use against Saints rather than one which is missing 6/7 first teamers.

That would be my team for the semi. Thornley looked awkward on the right hand side yesterday. It's a shame we'll be missing Leuluai, Powell and KPP.

I don't envy Peet this week, particularly in terms of selection decisions. A few bans have been handed out this week by the disciplinary and we can't afford that for the cup game, so I would like us to rest some. But on the other hand, we looked really disjointed at times in attack yesterday. Real toss-up for me with regards to this week's team.

Did we not do something similar last year (or the year before) and rest loads of lads Vs Saints, with the aim for being "fresh" for the Leeds CC game? Didn't work then, won't work this time.

If you can't work through tiredness for Wire away and Saints in the semi final, there's something wrong with you as a player imo.
