Please, I want to see a good competitive game, albeit the game at York was marred somewhat by the torrential rain that poured down all the game, it was knife edge up to the final whistle, that's how I like my RL not one sided.

Think you'll find that the YCK will be resting a few key players as the squad rotation game is played

Booo!

But seriously is finishing 4th better than finishing 3rd with how the fixtures could well pan out, I very much expect Leigh will do the rotation bit next week in Toronto.

And as I alluded to a couple of weeks back Toronto could well be devoid of any competitive games up to the final being played especially if their semi-final opponent takes the view that they will be revisiting Canada for the final and they too play the "squad" card,  that could be 10 weeks of slowing down for the Wolfpack player's before having to go all out.

You cant blame clubs for resting players, the Knights still need 2 points to make sure they finish in 4th.

We've massively over achieved this season with a small squad, so resting some of our key players before the playoffs could be a shrewd move by Ford.

Swinton getting their first win against Widnes since the 1990s seems quite possible.

 

I'm sure all our leaving players will want to put on a good show. 

So yeah, you'll probably win.  ?
