I understand the reasoning behind this 21 but I'm disappointed.
I want us to win the LLS - many (arguably including SP) don't rate it.
It's one of only 3 trophies on offer.
We have the strength in depth to field a much stronger team without significantly affecting our chances in the cup.
I almost feel like it's taking the p***.
If SP wanted to field a weakened side it would have made more sense to me to name 4 additional first teamers in the 21 and not play them because it could have bluffed Salford into naming a stronger side.
Also there is the risk that some of the youngsters get 'scarred' by a mauling by Salford before their SL careers have really begun.
I appreciate that this may not be a popular view.
Everyone entitled to their own opinion but I'm not happy about this.
