Same 21,  tweak things a little or keep the combinations going ?

More of the same for me, keep Walters in there as he is putting in some really good work, maybe spell him with Faz when an interchange prop comes on, to bed him into the second row, if that's where the coaching staff see him playing long term

Personally I'd give a couple of lads a chance this week. It's a long season and it must've been a taxing couple of weeks for the players, with the travel. I'd bring in Eckersley, Farrimond and Hill for Wardle/Faz and one of Field or French. 

Good call NK but for me I like to keep consistency and if the players are all fit and able, then build momentum and earn the right to rest players later in the season

I think he likely will keep things the same tbh. I just worry a little about the lack of games in general that guys like Hill, Eckersley and Farrimond get and how it could impact their development, so if there is a chance to get them a game, I'd take it. They're too valuable to loan out but they're not first 17 players and that can lead to weeks on end where they don't play high level games. It's certainly a balancing act with these things. 

Personally i think that, injuries aside, we need to keep the same team together as much as possible during the early part of the season (unless we are playing Salford of course). We need the first 13/17 to gel and there will be ample opportunities later in the year for the younger players to get game time

My initial thought were to play full strength as i think it is important that we show consistency and put in a big performance, showing ourselves and the league that we haven't been affected by the vegas trip. 


However looking at the fixtures, there is no game i would even contemplate resting players and playing a weaker team until June which is the reverse fixture at Huddersfield, then maybe the Cas game 2 weeks later. 


I think both have merit and i am sure Peet and the rest of the coaching staff will know where our players are at and who could benefit from a week off. 


Perhaps Nsemba being a younger lad (are the rules on limited play time in this year?) could be one that could benefit. Reward Walters on his recent performances with a starting position in the second row this week and bring Hill onto the bench. 

Looks like a huge crowd for the game today.
