When you look at some of the players injured or wll be possibly suspended in last nights Souths vs Roosters match, would it be wise for BA to rest some of our stars tonight.
Imagine injury to Moses, Gutho or suspension for Evans or Paulo following tonights match.
Food for thought.?

No, we need to build the confidence after a few weeks of disapointing losses.
You think they deserve a weekend off? We need all the games we can get. Our timing terrible, our goal line defence terrible. Defence wins you games!
We need to approach this game as a trial for the finals, ie work on a few set plays and combinations. If we lose this game it is really no big deal as long as we know what we need to do next week, and have the confidence that we can do this. I think Manly will have the same attitude and neither team will want to lose players from this game. The good thing is that we are playing another finals team so this is a great way to segway into the finals next week.
Far from a meaninglessness game it's all about installing confidence & momentum. I understand your concerns but that's footy, i can't wait for the game tonight i will driving down fro the coast with my son & a couple of his mates who doesn't enjoy beating Manly especially this time of year
I know we’re guaranteed a home final already but we actually need a win. We’re 2 losses in a row currently. Need to get back to winning.
Team is listed, It's too late apart from the 2 reserves.
Absolutely no way... that is a luxury for only the most well drilled, battle hardened, finals experienced sides... and we are far from that. When you add our recent losing record it's an even bigger no. I'd see how the game goes and if we're up by plenty I'd probably give 4 of the starting side an early mark but that's about it.
Maybe start with ray stone at hooker and bring Mahoney on after 30 mins .
and Also start Ferguson at fullback and put gutho at wing for a rest
Out of curiosity which ‘stars’ are they?
Not a single Origin player in our squad.
Blake Ferguson?
