| Quote Frank35="Frank35"I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of the 19's play on Friday, anyone who's been up to Orrell this year will know how special they are when on song.
It's a great reward for them to be given a shot on Friday, whilst resting our strongest team for the play-offs.
I'm happy no matter what the result is on Friday, fair play to Wane.'"
I agree, plus it's a great chance for a lot of them to put themselves in the frame for a 1st team spot or a contract extension for next season. They'll be out to impress Waney as well as us fans. I always enjoy watching them making the step up to the next level.

| The most exciting squad I have seen all year, very bould move from Wane, and I personally think it could pay off.
We should be giving the senior players a mini off season, with high intensity low volume work outs aimed towards peaking them for the play offs, and out back up players get a much needed run out.
I remember last year Wane getting slated for not protecting his players for the play offs and now he is, he is slated, who would be a coach?!
The interesting decision will be the selection for next week. Do we run with a young team again or do we use it to build with our senior players.

| I dont mind this i like giving the younger lads a chance but i do think that we are sabotaging our chances in the playoffs we need to get some good form and cinsistency back
How many mini off seasons do we need, fair enough if they have injuries but im sceptical they do

| Quote Grimmy="Grimmy"Fair enough, if we have the depth I'm happy. As others have said, I'm actually more excited for this game knowing Tierney, Burgess, Manfredi, Hampshire, Williams and Crosby will get a run out. What are your thoughts on Lloyd? I know Rogues really rated him last year but I've not heard much this year'"
He has struggled to find his feet at the top level so far. Still trying to find a settled spot in a settled team. It is not suprising given the loan system at the moment. Last year he was running good lines in teams generally going forward. This year he is defending for teams on the back foot. When he played for us at Wakefield he looked a bit pigeon chested, like he is still filling out. Hopefully the spell at London may have been character building. He is the type of player that would really benefit from the old U21s setup rather than being spoiled by changes in system.

| Seriously, there are people moaning that we arent playing a full squad? The Widnes game where we played youth was great, and didnt we just kind of show that we can beat Hull so wheres the motivation in risking players?
Fair play to Wane, seems to have learned from last year, is rewarding hard working youth and isnt afraid to do what he thinks best. The more I see of him the more I like him and hope he stays for a good long time.

| Will this be the youngest team ever to play Superleague?
Certainly a back line of Tierney, Manfredi, Gelling, Thornley, Burgess, Hampshire, Powell/Williams must be.

Correct. The most satisfying win for me this season was away at Widnes because of the passion the young lads showed.

How about the Saints team that played Bradford back then?

I wouldn't read too much into 4th supposedly being better than 3rd. I'd agree that Hudds away is favourable to Warrington away in round 1 of the playoffs, but should the top 2 teams win the opening games then it would leave the team in 4th probably having to play Saints, as opposed to Catalans or one of the Hull sides. I'm sure you'd agree neither Wane or McDermott would want to play Saints in a knockout game over one of the other sides I mentioned.

I would have been worried about playing the saints teams of the past that were cheating the cap.. Not too worried about this one...

And I get accused of derailing threads? You are just looking for opportunities to pick an argument now. Stick to the topic, as I have done.
