What is my next most important game ?: Leeds CC semi

How do I ensure they are available, injury free and relatively fresh?
The Widnes game is not irrelevant, Smith would have chosen a side that he thought capable of getting the points, but with a view to resting the players he needs for Leeds, and avoiding playing those that risked injury on the 'plastic fantastic'. SL is simply a knock out competition, yes it is better to be higher placed, but not essential. Having your best players fresh and available certainly is though.'"

Exactly. Had we gone to Wembley and lost two years on the run there would be endless threads on here about the seats being uncomfortable and how a local venue would be much better. |

Nobody said that, it's ok to lose to widnes because in the grand scheme of things it doesn't diminish our chances of winning silverware this season. |

Last season Waney spelled his team and lost some very easy games. The result was blooded kids and the double.

Typical Warrington fans.
How many threads do we have to read along the lines of
"The future is bright the future is Wire"
"Next year we will be able to field a side where X players have come though our academy. I am proud"
So TS picks a side with 8 players from our Academy and we see what the true view of the fans is:
picking a bunch of Warrington lads is disrespecting the fans!!
Sorry Tony to keep this lot happy you better stick to signing Trent Kangaroo from the Bushtucker 6th grade league, at least the fans will think you are showing them more respect than picking some lad born within 20 miles of a Warrington postcode....

TS picked a team that was both good enough to win and rested players/gave runs out where needed for experience and injury rehab. IMO The best chance of winning the "ultimate prize", the Grand Final will be because of this rather than in spite of it.

Apart from the end of the world because we lost one in eleven last night we now have to suffer all those people who know more than Tony Smith.

Although it may be nice to win a bit of silverware to polish for 12 months is it really the be all & end all of the season ? I am happy to go along & watch my team & be entertained by the rugby on display from both teams. The more oooohs & aaaahs in a game can be just as satisfying as a comprehensive win. The skill on display is my fix.
