who mentioned discipline? only you
players from all clubs have mentioned how tired they are. the coaches said it. macdermott said it!
so why not rest 4/5 for what is a comfortable home game when we have a hard set of games coming up?
absolutely crazy not to rest key players

Re: CC QF | Leeds Rhinos v Featherstone Rovers : Thu Jun 15, 2017 4:45 am  

And if Fev upset the applecart, I suppose you would be right behind the coach on resting first teamers for fringe/ reserve players.....yeah right. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.

Re: CC QF | Leeds Rhinos v Featherstone Rovers : Thu Jun 15, 2017 4:51 am  

you think they could? not a chance. is burrow at hooker a weakness? worse than parcel but good enough to for fev surely?
walker at full back for golding who clearly isn't fit.
Galloway rested as he clearly is carrying a knock.
this is a comfortable game. if a weakened leeds couldn't win easily then I don't hold hope for the rest of the season

The CC is littered with big name casualties, who quite probably thought like you....Macca can do no right in some folks eyes. Every silver lining has a cloud eh?

Re: CC QF | Leeds Rhinos v Featherstone Rovers : Thu Jun 15, 2017 5:04 am  

I've given him plenty of praise for this years turn around. I've also had a go when he's done stupid things, like not using subs at widnes when players were struggling to walk let alone run.
I call it as I see it. unlike some who have agenda's both for and against him I don't.
for me this is a wasted opportunity. if anyone things fev have a chance they are deluded. even they are thinking of resting players because of fixture congestion.

The more I think about it, the better it seems. Not only does it enhance our chances of winning, but it has the added bonus of raising pulses within the teeth gnashing brigade.

I agree with Tad. Mental to see our strongest team out.

Probably looking to get the attack firing.

Attack and firing - alien words to McDermott
