18 1st team appearances from Ali so far this year.

9 from Weller.

Hmmmm.

Ali played 60 minutes as well against us at HQ.

Ali would have played if not for his ban too.

Ali has played 60 mins + in all 18apps this season. I'm surprised Leeds let him go.

He looks very fit at the moment and can do a lengthy shift. Back for cas and rested, hope to see some ali magic.

Is he?

any word on whether we're taking Amor back?

Just over three minutes a game on average is remarkable low .... unless you're Weller Hauraki playing his second spell.

Surely we will take Amor back, while JP and Kylie have been great props for us it doesn't take a genius to work out that apart from the big game they are unable to sustain the effort for long and are being overrun. Mind you after JP efforts last night I think Mc must think he's 25 again (time played). Lets see what the lad has in his engine got to have more than players already mentioned.

Wont sign a new contract and Rovers dont want to lose him on a free.

All good old rumour so far my good man

Well after 77 mins JP was taken off as the game had gone.

Flogged!!

I'd have taken JP off and played with 12....

or thrown Webb back on.

Hauraki is what I'd like to call a 'Paul Harkin' signing. The sort of signing we were used to in the late 80's, early 90's. Played a couple of half decent games against us, so we sign him up.
As for Webb, unfortunately this season his negatives have outwieghed his positive contributions (although that could be said for a number of our players). His errors and ridiculous penalties do seen to be a catalyst for the rest of the team to go into 'petulant brat' mode, rather than focussing on the rugby. JJB for all his endeavour is another who at the moment needs to take a look at his performances/stupid penalties and the effect he is having on those around him.

No finer sight than watching Ali play rugby. I cheered louder for him at the Wakey leeds game at Headingley than I did many of the Leeds player.

Had some luck at Wakefield that he didnt at Leeds regarding his fitness.

Trinity have also done well to get the best out of Tim Smith, and Paul Aiton has looked a good signing too. Think Wakefield as a club have really succeeded under the licencing programme, but thats another matter.

It does seem that the Leeds coaching staff consider Peacock, Kylie, Moore and Kirke all offer more long term options than Amor does

Looks like he stays a Wakefield player.
