This is Saints having a "rest", just as they have in the past.
Extremely disrespectful to Toulouse and the Competition and their travelling fans who will have paid good money to watch their side.

I know that every club has a squad of players for good reason but, this is taking the proverbial (again)

Hang on a minute. This isn’t cas or Hull kr playing the “Covid” card to get out of playing better teams. These are legitimate injuries which will make it all the sweeter when saints muller a team with theirs reserves out that Wigan and Wakefield were lucky against with full teams

Wigan were nowhere near full strength and should have lost

Toulouse at +32 on the handicap is looking decent value

Stop making things up that isn’t the current situation , Saints are NOT playing a second string team against the opposition,
Woolf has confirmed he is playing his strongest side and respects that Toulouse have played well over their last 2 games.

He's right, stop making excuses for what is blatantly obvious to most people with two brain cells. I get why it's part of the game but your pretence is a touch naudeating.

Bell must be injured so Norman/Amor for Walmsley (2 weeks) Wingfield for Matautia (5 weeks) Royle for Batchelor (11 day HIA). Grace started full contact training yesterday so will be available next week.. Hopoate picked up a knock in training yesterday so Hurrell plays.

Looks as though Welsby (ankle) has recovered but Bennison is on standby.

So that means no one has been rested for the game, despite the dumb-dumber-dumbest posters on here saying otherwise.

We'll see when the team sheet comes out. I suspect there may be some rested from within the 21 man squad too, but if we pick the strongest team you could be right. Bennison is expected to play and there are four travelling who they haven't made a decision on according to a DM I got on Twitter. I get the feeling we may rest a couple. I'm think we can have a good guess at 2 of the 3 unvaccinated players at this point too.

Just because a coach says a player is injured, doesn't mean they are.

He isn't exactly going to say "we're playing the kids because Toulouse are poop" is he?
