| The easter games are almost here! So, what is the best strategy for easter? A bad easter can undo in 8 days the equivalent of a months good work! The next few weeks are important.
Just before easter, it's Quins away. Worst defence in the league against 2nd best attack (with a game in hand). Do we play full strength and really go for it, or rest one or two?
I have a feeling Youngquest will be out, and Isa may be out too, so we might not have too many rotation options in the backs, but in the forwards we can rotate!
I was impressed with Hudson yesterday especially in defence. Some good tackles from marker and made sure Salford got no momentum. I would play him agaisnt Quins, but rest him againt Wakefield so he can play the Saints and Leeds matches. It will also be good for Milner to get a game in. He played really well when Hudson was injured and needs to get games on a regular basis.
The two players that didn't impress me yesterday were Ferres and Aspinwall. Ferres knocked on twice and gave away 3 silly penalties resulting in 2 of the Salford tries. I can't really remember Aspinwall doing anything apart from coughing up posession on the Salford line. I know Ferres is a 2nd row//LF, and we might not have any option than to play him in the (unless TM thinks someone like Blackmore or Backhouse are ready) but he needs to cut out the silly penalties. It could well cost us against someone like Saints. Time for Snitch to get a run maybe? Especially against Wakefield.
The props have been awesome this season. No sane person would rest Huby but Walker should be ready for selection again soon. We need to use him over easter if possible. Rangi showed us what he can do yesterday if the forwards give him a bit of room.
Saints have Wigan on good friday, then us on the monday. This could be our best chance in over a decade to beat Saints away!
Rangi for man of steel!

| Blackmore at centre sounds a nice, old-fashioned prospect.

That would be good to go back in time and get Blackmore in the centres.

| Could it be time to call Thompson back? Move Dixon to and have him and Owen on the wings.

| Easter is an important period for us to back up everything we've done so far
We haven't really played any of the so called big boys yet and they're all currently out of form, however i think they will step it up over the Easter period and we need to show the rest of the league what we can do against stronger opposition, especially if we all feel we can make the play offs and get a good league position. I personally would like to make a play for 5/6th rather than contesting for 7/8th

would call up greg eden to for the first team and play him in the centre, because jordan thompson as not being playing that good at york.
could soon be turn for John Davies to call back because he is play great for york.

| Good Friday win against the pussycats would be a great start, after next weeks win against the Harlespins of course.

| I was thinking about the problem we could have out wide on Friday if Isa and Youngquest are missing (if they are 50-50 i would personally not risk them).
It looks to be the 1st selection headache for T.M this season. I think he will go with Ferres/Owen on one side and Arundel/Dixon on the other.
Didn't Aspinwall play out wide for the Giants?,could be worth a punt if Jordan Thompson is out of sorts and we seem to have a lot of options in the forwards at present.

| Full strength every game but if anyone is below 100% then we are in the fortunate position of not having to force them.
