On a side note, does anyone know if Faz is ok? He was limping before one of Foster's tries and went off after one, but seemed to be ok when coming round to clap everyone.

We need to try to keep momentum up and try to not let the cup distract us from the league.

If any players are going to fill in for the rested I'd like to see the likes of Mellor, Logan, King etc. Not Roberts or Goulding give the future a chance. Goulding Nz Roberts have had chances time and time again.

Roberts apparently is now fully fit after his second operation on his knee a couple of months ago.

I believe he scored a hat-trick yesterday as well....so never say never (for next season).

We thought it was his knee.



It's actually his hip flexor.

he did look in a lot of pain when he was tackled and knocked on

I'd like to see the following players sit out one of the next two games; Carmont, Deacon and Coley. Obviously anyone carry an injury should also be rested. Plus if Prescott's fit for next week I'd be inclined to give Lima and Mossop alternate weeks off ahead of the final. With correct rotation of the squad we have a great chance of doing the treble.

Problem is, if you rest a player for too long, surely they'd lose some match fitness and focus.

I'd like to see Mellor given a couple of games against Salford and Cru. If he his going to take over as our long term 6 he should be getting a few games in the 1st team.

You play for your place in the next game, simple as that

I agree that it'd be good to rest anyone not fully fit, and give the likes of Hock, Prescott and Marsh the chance to stake a claim for a Wembley jersey.



Barring injuries, the backs will pick themselves for the big day, but I believe there's still one or two spots up for grabs in the forwards (perhaps esp. on the bench).



I'd also like to see some of the younger players given a chance (Mellor, King, etc), but I'm not sure that now is the right time - not with the hub cap still up for grabs, that is. Of course, you could argue that the hub cap is not important, but I think it is. It gives us a psychological edge over the other GF contenders, and keeping winning will keep the momentum up too (which is more important at this time of year than ever).

You can't underestimate the importance of match fitness. No resting.



Obviously, any injuries should be assessed on a case by case basis.
