Put the kids in, let them play with no pressure, no expectation and at the very least they would get experience.

And, you never know, they might surprise Saints (and us!) :lol:
With our current lack of pack id agree however warrington showed that saints are not all that, they dont handle being on the back foot at all.
true but we dont have a pack to do that
But we have a rested Lockers

I'm actually looking forward to this game as strange as that sounds. Everyone expecting our young side to get an absolute thumping based on the squad, but I'm thinking maybe, pressure off, let the lads play a little. Some of the more experienced forwards will be playing for their spot in the cup game so will have an extra incentive. One could only wish this sort of game where we are underdogs was in front of a packed out ground though, as I could imagine that could/would inspire the lads to push even further.
Either way I'm looking forward to seeing some of the young lads really test themselves, who knows? Maybe some complacency may creep into the Saints camp. Pressure on them really as they're expected to beat us well.

It’s good to see the young lads play but personally I’d go for a strong team. I k ow we’ve got a lot of games coming but I hate getting beat by saints!

Don't exactly agree that we should throw the Sts game but would hope for a repeat of that famous boxing day win.
😱😱 Edit, I meant Good Friday game when Kev Brown and a good few young players had to cover injuries.

It’s just funny to hear all the saints fans getting upset that we’re not taking it serious.

At the end of the day If we loose, we loose. I like most are happy to see these young lads get some much needed SL experience
