Are people posting the sides they would pick or what they expect to see? I ask because despite seeing a lot question marks over the policy and the criticism levelled at Agar for it, all of you have named Sharp on the bench so far.

(Not saying you are the ones who did the criticising, but I've not previously seen anybody speak up advocating it as a good tactic yet it seems to be being approved here)

It's not a tactic I'd like to see employed. Sharp to wing, Whiting to second row for me.

I'd either do the same or give Kent a chance. I just found it strange considering how many calls of Sharp on the bench being a waste when we could blood a youngster there have been, that nobody is suggesting we should do so. Is it because it's Warrington, or because people have just given up on the possibility of it happening?

IMO Friday's result matters little, so we might as well give Kent or Whiting a go in the back row because it might give us an idea of whether or not it would be a good move should Tickle not make the playoffs either.

I posted the squad I expect to see, fwiw I think having Sharp on the bench is a complete waste of a bench spot, I would much rather see Kent given a go. To be fair to Sharp though, I think the way Agar has treated him is a disgrace tbh, and embarrassing at times.

My selection is purely on what I think Agar will pick on Friday although looking at the squad there is not an awful lot of room for manoeuvre.

I am not normally a fan of Sharp on the bench for obvious reasons but this week if any of our backs pick up a knock or are struggling when in a normal game they would play on I would be tempted to wrap them in cotton wool for the bigger game in the play offs a week later.

Saying that I would also be happy to see Liam Kent make a first team appearance off the bench to see how he handles what will be a very motivated Warrington team, will be a good test for the kid.
