[QUOTE="BPM, post: 1086948, member: 59968"] The Premiership Cup is a bit of an unwelcome distraction this round. I doubt any of the clubs who have semi finals this week are particularly keen to do anything other than playing academy kids. Challenge Cup QF for Saracens the following week might also influence their selection this week too. I could easily see them resting a bunch of players vs. Worcester who might not have the depth to rotate as much as they’d ideally need to between the Prem Cup and R24. On resting … Quins don’t really need to do it. We have Saints away on Friday then a 3wk gap until we play Gloucester followed by a 2wk gap before we play Exeter on the final day. We’re the reigning champions, it’s the only competition we’re in and with 3 games spread across 6wks, there really shouldn’t be any reason for us not to play our strongest side. [/QUOTE]
