What will Radford do, we have a good chance of 2nd and potentially if we win, we could be 2nd at Wembley.



Fully fit except Kelly (who I would have rested anyway), I'd also rest Houghton, Carlos and Ellis, my side would be



Shaul

Michaels

Fonua

Griffin

Talanoa

Connor

Sneyd

Watts

Washy

Taylor

Manu

Mini

Tomo



Green

Bowden

Fash

Turgut



Could also maybe use Masi and Litten and rest a couple more.

I'd go with something like that. We don't want to do a Leeds and rest everyone, but I think a couple would be wise. I'm sure Gaz will put his hand up to play though.

I think a few of those will play, Kelly the only one who sounds certain to be out.

Radford hasn't mentioned Shaul coming back in any of the press I have seen this week either?

... I don't think he'll be risked, but it makes our half back selection awkward.

With regards to Ellis, he has only recently come back from a long time on the side lines, it would not be resting him, it would be protecting him from injury if his is not picked.



Now, imagine the conversation "So Gaz, I don't want you to get huirt ahead of Wembley, are you ok to sit this one out?"



I would sincerely hope Ellis retort was short, to the point and ended with "and I will play"

For me Kelly to miss this game with Connor going back in the halves if Shaul is playing.

Ellis also plays for me as he only just come back from 3 months out, if possible maybe give Manu a breather with the Mini coming back.

Carlos to halfback then

If Shaul not risked then I'd go



Connor

Michaels

Fonua

Griffin

Talanoa

Carlos

Sneyd

Taylor

Houghton

Watts

Ellis

Mini

Washy



Thompson

Green

Bowden

Fash

He has left the club after a big fallout, because he was being bullied by Radford

I dont think we should rest anyone if fit to play.Kelly wont play but other than that if the potential Wembley team is fit they should play as they are all playing for places.

Connor back to half back for this game but if everyone is fit for Wembley for me the only decision will be whether Connor is moved to centre and Griffin either misses out or is on the bench at the expense of Fash.

I think Griffin has done really well since his reintroduction to the side at centre. I do like Connor at centre but his utility is worth more to us imo. More than happy with Carlos and Griffin as the centres.



Against Hudds I would rest anyone carrying knocks (we don't really know the status of Shaul for example) but I wouldn't be resting anyone simply for the sake of resting them. We need a good performance leading into Wembley (not to mention the 2 points). Rest players against Leeds the week after.
