With Sims out, I can't see TS resting Hill.
He may use him sparingly though.
King, Bailey, Westwood, Cox as the forwards look a little light with only Bennie being effective for big minutes. I suppose Bailey could play big minute if pushed.

If fans are paying good money to watch the team then it can never be a dead rubber. £41 for coach & ticket of course we want to win.

No, we aren't playing well enough at the moment to rest players. Fine if they are not fit to play, but we are not gelling like we were at the beginning of the season. They need to get game time together to sort out the plays and build confidence.

I'd be nervous resting Hill at this point - if he is actually carrying an injury that could get worse, then fair enough. We play KR on Friday, Salford on the Thursday then a 10 day turnaround till we play Cas away on the Sunday. Could Hills rest wait till then? Or do we let him have Salford off while Sims comes back, giving him over two weeks off....?

I think we won twice at Craven Park in 2014. In the cup in April and again in SL in June.

Is there any point of risking anyone with the slightest niggle, senior players and star game changers over at Hull this week?

We're in the 4, blew our realistic chance of the hubcap.


I am curious about this mentality I see a lot of in the RL community.
There are 11 games to go, and 22 points to play for and we are only 4 points off the top, but people seem to believe that the chance of finishing top is not realistic?
Really???

Surely there is every chance to finish top in such a tight top 4.

Is it just that people don't expect Warrington to finish the season well or that Hull are so damn good that they will not drop more than 2 of their remaining 11 games?
In most other sporting leagues, to be 2 wins from the top of the table with 11 games to go, most fans would be believing that there is a chance to win the league.

Isn't this the split too where league points are carried forward to the top 8 ? The more points you have the bigger start you have in the next stage.

We're so far in front of the chasing four, is it reasonable not to take risks and be selective of which games to attack full on to maintain the status quo, whilst having a beady eye on having our team tip top before we play the cc semi and final?
