I could see Johnstone in the NRL in a couple of years, certainly got the potential. Big couple of years for Wakey, the Chairman has done an unbelievable job, at the moment the players are happy, but will need to win something or least challenge (finals etc) to keep players like Johnstone at the club.

Keep hearing numerous teams after Johnstone but not heard of a big money offer being made. Apart from rumours that other teams have an INTEREST (not an actual offer). Fifita may have had a few teams interested in him, do we know who they were or what they offered?

So funny with Wakefield fans on here, if fans of other clubs aren't talking about their players or putting them down they get all touchy and want to tell us how good their squad is. If people praise their players they get worked up telling parasites to stay away from Wakefield players.

It would be surprising if you did, aren't deals done in private and then announced to the fans, as for transfer rumours they're usually instigated by newspapers wanting to sell papers, perhaps that's where you've heard all the "big money rumours" concerning Johnstone in order to create interest, only guessing though.

FTR Wire tried to buy Miller last year before they got Brown and were told no chance. Cas also tried to get Fifita off us after the end of the last season as well but was told no thanks.

MC has said a couple of times on Yorkshire Radio that he's nad numerous teams after Johnstone, especially at the end of 2016 but he's repeatedly said he'd be the last player he sells.

As for the first part, if peple were putting Leeds players down you'd be the first one on here to stick up for them, it's natural they're your team. It just seems that Wakey have more people either trolling or just underestimating. The second part is easy to understand, after what we went through for a few years. For example around 2010/11 we lost at least 5 players just to hudds. It seemed every season around that time we were having to buy in half a team because we'd lost players to other Clubs.

Given that Cas have signed a few Championship players including the prop area that should give some idea of the strength of their interest.

Wire were desperate after Sandow left and probably inquired about several players. With Wire's money do you honestly think they had "no chance" of getting him if they really wanted to or that he was their first choice ahead of Brown or others? Brown has struggled this year but I'd have gone for him over Miller.

Wakey owner tells some stories about turning down offers and Wakey fans lap it up assuming other clubs are coming in heavy for their players and gets the owner in the fans good books. Makes the owner look good in the fans eyes but the reality of the interest in Wakey players probably nowhere near as strong as they like to make out.

How do you not know that Fifita wasn't going to be Cas' one big signing but fell through?

None of us know what Wire offered for Miller so it's neither here or there but of course, if Wire chucked a load of money at Trinity they might have got him but all we know is they didn't. As for Brown over Miller, your opinion but they came after Miller first & I'd say Millers got a better game than Browns, especially in attack.

Oh, so MC telling stories live on Radio, do you think that's wise where he could get called out by the other Clubs. So basically, you make out he's telling porkies to appease fans. You believe what you want fella, you've obviously got the Trinity owner all worked out.

You really are jealous aren't you. You really can't abide little old Wakey having something you haven't - in this case a winger with speed and class - poor didums.

By the way you do know Leeds had TJ on there books at one point, is that you're problem?

As for Fifita don't be pathetic, a big wrecking ball of a player on a half season deal - are you seriously suggesting there wasn't a lot of interest I said player. Come off it he was hot property in SL by the end of 2016. Again is it because little old Wakey had the audacity to retain a player the snob in you thinks they shouldn't - I'm facinated I really am.

Those days are sadly long gone vasty,It's about time we all moved on and got a new modern stadium for players like TJ to play in

We are currently on track ,how about you Luv?

Yes, as a Leeds fan who has seen my team win 8 GF's, a couple of CC's and WCC's, a few LLS including one in the most dramatic of finishes. Several legendary careers seen in the flesh and not just read about in history books.....I'm jealous of Wakefield for one winger who may not even cut it at a big club even though we've got one of the best wingers in SL history in Hall and Brisvoe who whilst has struggled at times has produced for us in numerous CC and GF's.

Honestly some Wakefield fans on the VT are making themselves out to be delusion based on a 5th placed finish. Reality is you haven't got ANY players that the top teams are DESPERATE for. A passing interest or inquiry in a player and you lot are trying to pass it off as a win for your club that he's stayed.

If Leeds wanted a new winger I'd want a few others ahead of Johnstone with McGillvery miles ahead of him.

The Leeds snobbery is still in full swing I see this off season. Wakey finally have a couple of players that are sought after and better than their counterparts at the high end clubs like Leeds.

It’s a rarity over the years and it may only be a handful but boy it’s hard to accept for some fans. The hard work that’s gone into finally building a team that can challenge every game on an even keel with the top sides has been a massive effort. I’m happy with what we’ve got and I wouldn’t swap a number of our players for counterparts at any other club.

I’m happy enough to keep on seeing Tom Johnstone keep putting his opposite wingers in his pocket and shaking them out after the final hooter for another year.

Jesus Christ, I innocently answered a couple of questions I knew the answer to because they had been talked about in the media/radio and it descends into this bull$hit of Leeds fans trying to say something that wasn't even said, I know better next time. So what if a few teams have made enquires and made bids for a couple of players, what's the big deal to you. If you don't believe what the owner says I couldn't give a monkeys one way or the other. No ones made mention of where wakey finished last season, just you. The point which I made earlier is not long ago we'd have been raided for a guy like Johnstone or whoever else quite easily, mainly to pay the bills and thankfully not anymore. Lucky for Leeds they're the biggest City on RL & they're owned by a multi-millionaire isn't it.

The Koolaid comment is especially hilarious coming from the man who won't have a bad word said against Leeds & sucks at the tit of everything GH says. But when I reply to what I heard MC say on the radio, he's apparently a liar and we're all just lapping it up. Yes I mean why would 'bigger and better clubs' be interested in Johnstone, Fifita or Miller, they've all got so much better.

I had you down as a better poster than this, but seriously grow up.

Jesus Christ the level of delusion in Wakefield is reaching stupid levels. Again I'll repeat you have NO ONE that top teams are desperate for, passing interest maybe, but not desperate or proven better than they have,

As for snobbery, Wakefield fans are the ones insisting that big teams are desperate for their players but won't be able to have them no matter how much they want them,

The biggest snobs on the VT are Wakefield fans based on them having a season most would consider average. Get over yourselves you're making yourselves look ridiculous. At least Cas had a LLS to be cocky about and Hudds did the same in 2013. You've got nowhere near that and acting like overconfident delusional idiots.
