| The thing is, no offence to Dews, but we should only rest players who've got a knock which would be helped by a week off. Putting a good kicking to them would help the team as we could get a chance at trying different ideas on field, little training ground moves and the like

We managed ok in pre season with Sykes and Addy and that was with very few 1st team regulars. With Godwin, L'Estrange, Sykes and Addy/Southernwood we should have enough creativity with a strong pack. As I say, if we lose to Dewsbury with a handful of players out we don't deserve to progress anyway.

| Quote ="Ewwenorfolk"Bit early imo. Needs to bulk up before he plays in the first team'"
Not necessarily true. Same could have been said for Tomkins, Burrow and Maguire.
I saw Paul Deacon play for Oldham and he looked like a small boy (he'd put a bit of timber on by the time he played a bit of academy for us and made the first team
This sort of game gives up and coming players a different sort of run out that a senior academy game wouldn't
Whitehead and Donaldson look miniscule in comparison to some of the giants they are playing and doing well against. It might be a bit early but we shouldn't shy away from exposing these prospects when we have a chance - this could be it

| So judging from Maccas comments and common sense, you'd think it would be a few from the following list to get a rest : Andy Lynch, Steve Menzies, Matt Orford, Chris Nero, Jamie Langley.

| Watch out for Dewsburys score today v Whitehaven. 10 players have walked out on the club, and refuse to play for Jowitt. I've got a feeling he won't be the coach by the time we play them.

| I'd hope we'd be resting the likes of Kearney, Orford, Langley, Lynch and Scruton. With those out we should still have far too much in the tank to deal with Dewsbury.

given comments about players not being able to train this week and a couple of knocks in yesterdays game, I'll be surprised if lynch,langley,nero,sykes and orford feature next week. think well need scruton to give us some bulk in the pack and kearney as a recognised half with maybe menzies at SO.

8. Scruton
9. Godwin

dont think we can risk resting kearney and l'estrange to be honest. and didnt sykes come off with a knock at catalans?. only other change to your line up would be I'd leave halley on the wing asa he needs game time their and put reardon at FB.

Yes thats about right, Scruton when needed, though I agree with Reardon at FB
Like to take another look at Addy after his pre season match at Cas where he went OK.
Olbison and Burgess defo. Get 'em in and try em out.

why rest sheriffe? i'd put him in on wing and let crookes play . think we need one of langley/menzies in 2nd row as an older head too. other than that no problems with that team

| Reardon was training alone in the gym today. Not sure if he's injured or something. I wouldnt weaken the squad to much, we cant be throwing in loads of juniors to make there debuts. Maybe one or two.
I'd go like this.
Kearney
Sheriffe
Platt
Nero
Halley
Sykes
Orford
Scruton
L'Estrange
Kopczak
Whitehead
Langley
Donaldson
Hall
G Burgess
Godwin
Worrincy

Thing is though, say Orford picks up a serious injury, every single Bradford supporter will be on the back of Mcnamara about his squad selection for this game. I still think without Orford, Kearney and a few others we will still have too much for Dewsbury.

If he picks up an injury then he picks up an injury, it's part of the game and part of life.
It's not only about resting players either but also about keeping momentum and confidence.

| Not point playing players that realistically don't need to be played.
We have a few fringe players. Get them starting. I could imagine Worrincy having a field day against the level of Dewsbury.

| Would suspect as Reardon not in 19 for Cats game, did he travel, if not and bearing in mind he was rested against Crusaders he probably hasnt been given any/as much time off as everyone else? Would like to see him at f/b on Sunday and regain some confidence
