Mantra Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Be interesting to see what Evatt does. rest some key players for the playoff games or go full strength and try to go into them on a high. If it were up to me, I’d be wrapping Charles and Bradley in cotton wool and maybe give Santos 45 minutes if he’s ready Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lostock Whites Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 After this game we have a week until the play offs start right? Players could get injured but I don't think there should be any other option than just going for it full strength. Cement 5th and finish on a high and on 80+ points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radcliffe white Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Not a fan of resting players either start with the team that will play 1st leg as the game goes on then make substitutions yes it reduces the risk but an injury could be picked up in training Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted April 30 Moderators Share Posted April 30 No body knows the current fitness of the players better than the players, evatt and staff Leaving them out wont be to avoid a broken leg ffs Its likely they are all carrying niggles, be it bruises or strains, just a question of degree I reckon its very rare they play without something not 100% Im definitely in the get the minds and bodies fixed if necessary camp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrested development Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I think key players need to play no more than 60 mins. Try and use all subs. Even maybe give Dixon a run out protect traff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrotter Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Toal, Williams (Both), Sheehan, Santos, Thomason & John have all played less than 30 games this season, so shouldn't be knackered but may be carrying injuries or niggles. Bradley, Trafford and more recently Dempsey have the energy of a Duracell bunny (and Bradley has had a couple of rests through suspension). Victor, Shoretire, Dan & Kachunga have been in most match days squads for their respective teams and us all season but have had few full games post xmas. Johnston has had 35 games but had a rest through injury recently. The ones who could do with a rest are Jones (keeps running but a few games recently has looked shattered by the end), Morley and Charles (who are both playing like they need a rest). I'd rest all three, but not sure we have any cover for Jones unless Rico is back on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree and I'd definitely play Rico (unless he's totally not up to it) as he need's at least an hour to gain some match fitness before the important 3 matches.

Wanderlust Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Curious about Santos thigh injury. Obviously not a rupture as that would require surgery and months off so it must be a strain and if it's a grade 1 he should be running by now whereas a grade 2 would probably give him no chance of the playoffs - and yet I haven't heard any reports of him training yet. With thigh strains, the longer it is rested the better but at some point he has to start getting back to work to be ready. If he really has a chance of making the playoffs, I wouldn't include him in the Brizzle squad but use the following week just to get him running around.
