Your team vs Penrith - our GF

I think Penrith and Warriors should rest players. Minor premiership means nothing, finishing 1st or 2nd doesn't change anything. Unless one of them really wants to play Roosters.

There are way too many niggles and issues to risk playing a whole game.

Look at Saifiti....gone 4 games
HIA mandatory 11 day thing...potential to miss week one from a simple accident
I dont think Penrith care about the MP...theyve had a few recently...Wahs might tho
 
There’s no way Penrith rest up next weekend.
Their boys haven’t played as much footy this year as they normally do due to injuries.
I’d be certain that he would want to keep momentum up going into the finals.
Betting markets know.

Odds have changed massively, maybe they’ll play a couple big guns who are short of a run but that’s it
 
1.Bula
2.Turuva
3.Solomone
4.Herbert
5. Skelton
6.Luai
7.Madden
8.Terrell
9.Api
10. Pole
11.Samuela
12.Roberts
13.Twal

14. Latu

16. Sukkar
17.Junior T
18. Seyfarth
19. Tavana

Penrith have big incentive to play full strength team
All they have to do is beat Tigers by 2 more points than Warriors beat Manly
If so they are minor premiers and probably play the shaky Roosters week 1
If not they play Dolphins week 1 which is much harder
 
Coming 2nd will cost the club $200k cash…no way Ivan is resting players
The minor premiership doesn’t mean anything compared to giving your team the best chance of winning the Grand Final.
If Ivan thinks some of his players would benefit with a week off then that’s what he will do.
They are guaranteed 2nd at worst with 2 home finals (commbank stadium).
