TOPIC:

I can't see Souths resting anyone as they only just had a bye. Shorten Curley will want to give his blokes as much playing time as possible before the finals you'd think and the competition for spots will mean everyone is having a red hot dip.

Or is there a more sinister reason, surely with an opportunity of an undefeated season and a flag beckoning Souths would not flirt with form, just to make sure Subi dont make it in?

full season maybe different circumstances also maybe
but Subiaco beating Perth last weekend might have put paid to that sort of idea
and then of course if Subiaco beat West Perth next weekend it would be a waste of time anyway
but anyway you know this mate

I'd say there is a good chance a few might get rested, it will just depend on how they are traveling personally, I am not convinced Higgins is 100% right and might benefit from a weeks rest , they there may be one or two others, there again they all might start and then sit out most of the game depending on how it pans out, giving the chance for some others to shine. Moreover - We really need to get over these slow starts.

keep in mind the reserves have just come off a two week bye because Mandurah inexplicably got away with not fielding a reserves side this season
Not really a great idea mass resting players

Plus they need to win to make finals don't they?

yep that's right mate
if we were at round 20 in a normal season situation you might find a club resting keys under certain circumstances but that's lightyears apart from right now
positive West Perth & Claremont want Subiaco involved too - as that ensures elimination of one of their respective rivals
