I have to say the teams and the recent ups and downs for both teams mean I favour Wakefield (Clearly I am biased as well)
But I also know, Wakefield don't do well at being the favourite. We often mess these games up. Will be interesting to see.
Sammut will surely have the game of his life......but then, he may also be targetted as you know him better than we do.

We'll see, but I say Wakefield will finish strong and break away

Mr Hicks will be in charge again for this one. Hope he doesn't ruin it.

Which areas of the ground are open to supporters? I know that we (away fans) are no longer able to stand behind the goals.

Wakefield have announced their squad for Thursday and Sammut is included. I was hoping there would be a delay in processing his work visa or summat. Oh well. I wait to see how much he celebrates when he scores against us.

Why wouldn't he celebrate?
As long as he doesn't go to the Bulls fans, I would expect him to be happy if he does.

Its all changed now, segregation will be used only when needed.


You can stand where you want.

I'm not quite understanding the irritation with Sammut. He wanted to leave and did so by asking the club for a release, they negotiated a deal and he's left. All very professional by him and no sneaking around getting his agent to find him a way out and nothing he's said subsequently has been disrespectful to the club or any of the staff.
Disappointed he's gone but he's handled it fine.

That's good as the view from the side is diabolical.

Not sure whether to go or not. The capacity makes me worry that I won't get in without a ticket and I'm not sure I can commit to a ticket as I never know if I'll be out of work in time.

Shame its a Thursday as I always make the short trip to Wakefield. Don't know why but apart from Headingley its the one away ground I look forward to visiting every year.

Given the circumstances my feeling is the team need as much support behind them as possible. Massive game so early in season, especially if the points deduction happens as expected.

I'd get Purtell and Henry running at Sammut all night. Henry would have a field day against him.

Don't forger coming the other way is Ali, Danny Tautai and Matt Ryan who looked very useful on Sunday

I've not seen any of the Wakey game at all so I couldn't comment pal. I think our best chance of winning is to line up our best runners at Sammut. Break through him and possibly score but it also knackers him out for when he has the ball.

Correct. Thankfully one of our back rowers who can't tackle isn't playing. But addy missed 7 on Sunday so if you run at him you'll get some luck!

Godinet looked sharp in the highlights I saw. Set up their first try with a nice pass and bagged himself an intercept try too.
I'd say we need to watch him just as much as Sammut.

On the Sammut transfer...
I wonder why we didn't put a condition in stopping Sammut playing against us ?
