| So Moving swiftly on from last night.
Given in Chesters' own words that he has been "rotating" the squad, and that this is the clubs "biggest game since 2008" (personally thought the MPG was far bigger). But, will we now see a continuation of rotation or will he go for it with what he perceives as his best team?
I don't think we have too many injured players IIRC Gibson (shoulder), Possibly Kirmond (knee) and possibly now Fifita (cheek).
So, how would you like to see us line up for this one?

| Lets see how the disciplinary goes this week too.
So far it's not looking positive IMO.

| I think that the game last night was far bigger. 2 points and we would be sitting pretty in the 8. Thursday's game is a distraction being played in a venue I never attend. I'll check the score after the footy finishes.

Guessing Simon is probably a big doubt as well following two concussion assessments yesterday. Could leave us looking light in the front row.

| No doubt the Match Review Committee will have their say on Tuesday as well, to add to our problems.
Can't possibly have uppity little Wakefield doing well now can we.

| Trying to be positive I think he'll put out his strongest team as a cup run is good for confidence and Trinity are just 2 games away from the final..which if the team were lucky enough to make would bring in much needed income.
Taking into account injuries and form think team may look something like...
Jowitt
Johnstone
Hall
Arundel
Jones-Bishop
Miller
Finn
Anderson
Moore
England
Ashurst
A.Tupou
Sio
Subs. Arona, Fifita, Molloy, Annakin

| A win would be nice but in my view not essential . I would much rather have another win from our remaining s l games and let things develop from there. We should have been in the position to go to sheds on Thursday without a care in the world and under no pressure Wembley although I don't like to say it is a distraction at the moment . To beat shuds and then playing a semi would in my view be one game to many with a squad that even allowing for rotation looks under par and certainly seeing a down fall in fitnes levels.

| If Chester has said, biggest game since 2007 then, we have some insight into his thinking.
Does this mean that we have been targeting this one or, is it more of a rallying cry to try and get a bit more focus from the players.
IF we can just control the ball and give ourselves an even share of possession then we have enough to beat Huddersfield.
However, the departure of Anderson certainly gave them a lift against Salford and we could have done without that.
Ball control and discipline please and pray that Child isn't refereeing, the guy is not good for us at all.

Disagree we did not have Sio, A.Tupou, Hall, Arundel or Annakin in the 17. In my opinion all of these have something more to offer the team than those they may replace from the Friday game.

Next Thursday's game is far more important, ideally it would have been nice to win last Friday but it's more important that we beat Hudds as it's virtually although not impossible that one of the bottom 4 will win all their remaining games.

| Shared gate receipts on Thursday so maybe it's worth a trip to Shudds for once?

You can take Moore put of that line up straight away - absolutely no way our friends at Red Hall will fail to ban him for another couple of games after his cannonball tackle. For someone who has been chomping at the bit to get back on the field it was a stupid thing to do and will see him spending more time on the sidelines watching instead of playing.

I hope you're right, but with his past disciplinary record I doubt it (whether there was anything in it or not).

| Taking a more realistic view of things, and my belief that we will get at least one win and that the fixtures might do it for us anyway, I've changed my stance slightly and think we should focus on a Wembley visit. Top 8 is a must, but I think we'll get it anyway.
Let's face it, the Super 8's will be a dead duck this year (as it will be most years). There is already a six-point gap between 4th and 5th, and it will only get wider, because the teams above are better. We are eight-points adrift already. The chances of us getting into the top four are zero, although we might have some fun on the way. Focus on the Challenge Cup and one more win, and just enjoy the rest.
