What does everyone expect from the game? The best i can hope for is 'Brave Fax rattle mighty Trinity before full time fitness sees Wakefield home and bagging the league leaders shield'. A sad scenario i know, but money talks and it's where we are at the moment. Fax 12v32 Wakefield.

Nothing other than a win for the Trin with the question being by how much.

On the plus side looks like the North stand is being opened and should have a decent crowd bringing some income in.

A sad endictment entirely but would settle for a 20 point reversal.Important to do the full 80 as points difference could be key.Not helped by the shield being on offer other than it should maximise the travelling support.

We do need to keep the score down because like as been said it could be vital come the end of the season. And hopefully Wakey will bring a big following with them so for once we can make some money on a home game. Score 10-40 to the mighty Trin.

Fax 10 Wakefield 38

Hopefully Wakey go easy on is as it could come down to points difference at the end of the season.

I class this one almost as a “Giant killing game” and in the past would expect us to rip in and give it a real dig before going down to a creditable defeat after the opposition were made to put up a real fight.

At the moment ( and no disrespect intended ) we can’t do that against fellow sporting dwarfs never mind Giants.

So something like Fax a single score Wakey 40+, but would be delighted to be proved wrong.

Fax 21 Wakey 20 with a last minute Fax try following a Walmsley fumble.

Wakey by 50 unfortunately.

I can only see us getting a drubbing. I’m away so won’t be going. Club still has my money (I don’t mind. We don’t want to end up like Whitehaven) as im a season ticket holder

Squad announced. So we've gone from having 3 hookers to just 1. Having said that, Johnson has been really disappointing the last few games but I suppose it doesn't help being played out of position. Would go for Joufrett coming off the bench as 2nd hooker, it worked well before, with Widdop and Keyes in the halves.

Looking at the remaining fixtures for Fax and our relegation rivals ..... Dewsbury and Haven look nailed on for the bottom 2, with Donny being the dark horses to get 3rd from bottom as they've got the toughest run in - our game on week on Sunday is a right 4 pointer. "Tony's Table" predicts the following finish (assuming we lose that game at Donny):

Donny - 21
Barrow - 21
Fax - 20
Swinton - 18

.... which shows what a killer it was losing at Swinton (we could be far more comfortable) but could make up for it winning at Donny.

Yeah total waste of time playing Johnson at Loose and Inman was really poor against Swinton especially switching off for their second try. Losing Crooks to injury is a big loss and he might have played his last game for us. With Campbell and Morgan token picks for the squad that gives us our 18 to pick from.

The bookies have given Fax 14 points start. Thought it would have been nearer 30 to be honest.

Aye, that looks worth a few bob on Wakefield, sadly.

Result just as predicted and to Trin on winning the Shield.

There was only about a 10 minute spell in the second half we’re we competed at all, the rest was just one way traffic and with the game already gone maybe better not going for 3 or 4 short kick offs and conceding on everyone to try and keep the points difference down which could be crucial in the final league positions.
