Will we rest anyone this weekend?

[matPORTS]

Coops and Nighty looked a bit worse for wear last Saturday. Will they be rested? Another member of the pack to also be rested, perhaps Creagh? Benny also mentioned in the Priddis farewell article that Luke will most likely play, being his swansong (barring injuries in the finals).

1. Boyd
2. Morris
3. Gasnier
19. Stanley
23. Fai Fai Loa
6. Soward
7. Hornby

8. Costigan
14. Fien
10. Weyman
11. Scott
9. Young
13. Smith

15. Merrin
16. Prior
17. Saffy
21. Priddis

I still like the look of this side!

i think bennett will rotate the forwards again. i doubt anyone from the backline will be rested

 

[muzby]

i hear a few fans need a rest

Haha! No rest until we win a Premiership. Then no rest until we win many more. We never rest!

GO SAINTS!

I read an article (not sure where from) it suggested that Young may be rested and give Priddis a send off game at Kogarah.

I reckon Young would be unimpressed, he's been pumped of late

The article mentioned Priddis would get a run, but didn't specifically say that Young would get a rest. Maybe Bennett will give Fein a week off to ensure his leg holds up ok!

IMO Fien needs more game time.

That is so true!

The man of the hour was on Sports Tonight. Brandy asked if anyone would be rested and he said no. But did say that Priddis would get a run...

 

[God-King Dean]

I'll be disappointed if Fien gets rested. Needs as much match fitness as he can get.

 

[cleary89]

Young to second row and Scott gets a rest? Or Creagh?

 

[DragonPunk]

There was an article in the mercury today, suggesting deano will get a rest and Priddis will play his final game.

 

[St. Linnane]

Fien to 5/8 perhaps? Soward rested?

 

[big pat]

would like to see stanley get a run at 5/8 see how he goes.

 

[Daniel Dragons]

Today's tele reports that Hornby has a finger injury and Fein will play halfback, with Priddis in the team. If that's the case, then Young won't be able to be rested (unless Priddis starts and Stanley is the backup hooker off the bench)

 

[Dragon Dave]

I heard Benny broke his thumb, hopefully will only be a week.

 

[Nugby]

Good to see you on here, Mat. I've wondered if anyone else is on Twitter but can be pretty sure in your case!

 

[DragonPunk]

I am and I think I follow you Nugby.

 

[St_Jubbsy]

would like to see stanley get a run at 5/8 see how he goes.

I would like to as well but not in the final game before a final series.

We should be ramping things up now, not unnecessarily resting players or giving young guys a run to see how they go.

Of course, this is different if players are carrying niggling injuries and definitely need a rest.
