You'd like to think a 5 goal lead would be enough for the best team in the league.

Safety first for me, Morrone starts with Greenfield on the bench.

The only way I see us losing this is if an inexperienced Brit has to go in goal, so let's not let that happen.

Personally I can't see Fox playing a young kid in such a big game - 5 goal lead or not.

Play Morrone & as you & many others have said, have Greenfield as the back up.

I'll go 4-2 Steelers.

If everybody is fit then for me you play the strongest team, greenfield in goal, need the same team to get into the groove for next w/end finals

I wouldn’t risk Greenfield in this. If he was to pick up an injury in an already won tie that wouldn’t help us for the playoff weekend.

Would defo put him as backup though.

That's my view on it. Greener had a good break recently so now needs to see some good game time to get in his full groove.

Also it doesn't give them the potential motivation from any perceived disrespect by resting obvious starters

This is a quarter final. Dafter things have happened than losing by 5 goals. Remember they scored 4 against us last night playing away from home and none of them were lucky. You play your best team. Greenfield in goal for me. Morrone as back up.

It’s only Fife. They finished 8th place for a reason. They’re a long way behind us if we play our normal game.

We could win with Laing in net with a 5 goal lead. They might have scored 4 goals against us. When I checked how many we scored it was 9 goals for us.

We’ll win today as well.
