A bit like a Candian team playing in an English league.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |

| Quote: William Eve "When the game has to resort to staging a Wales international in Wakefield, it really is time to pack it all in and quit pretending to be a professional sport administered by professional people.
Without the GB brand and scheduled domestic seasons between August and May, international RL is utterly screwed, as it has been since 1995/96 .'"
They probably staged the game in wakefield as most of the Jamacian team are from Yorkshire

| Well, for all of the "knockers" out there, it was a decent game and but for the ref's (Cobb) whistle, Jamaica would have very likely won this one.
A hat trick for Jones Bishop, the third of which tied the game, giving Jamaica chance to win form the conversion, followed by a contentious decision (not to give a knock on) from the resulting kick off which was spilled by Jamaice, which meant the game finished 16 -16.
The penalty count was massively in Wales favour but, the sin binning was certainly right (for a a "spear" tackle).
Jamaica played some good stuff and defended really well, with Wales struggling to make yards with ball in hand.
Good game and just a shame that so many "fans" prefer Eastenders on a Friday night, instead of spending a tenner to watch a decent game of RL

Oi, I gave up double Corry to go!
I think 1400 was a decent enough crowd, with a bit more planning it could've been better - I'd like to have seen street food and a bit more of a carnival, but I think Wakefield stepped in at the last minute to put this game on.
Have to say it was a fantastic friendly atmosphere and a very entertaining game, without the worries and anxieties that go with watching Trin.
Jamaica were very well drilled considering the short time they've had together - Glenn Morrison has added a gilt edge to his coaching CV.

Think Wales were surprised by the physicality of the Jamaicans and hopefully they came through without any injuries but it was a wake up call ahead of Italy and whilst against Serbia we spread the ball wide throughout the game last night it was too much crash bang wallop and trying to barge our way through the middle and when it leads to spilling the ball inside the opponents 10 4 times in 20mins it wasn't going to work.
It was a game we could have lost but still travel to Monza full of hope especially as two of the star players from Llanelli (Olds and Grace) plus Koppy and Joseph with their bags of experience will return for that one.

He wasn't the stand out but, all of the Jamaica boys hit hard and kept going for the full 80.
The second half penalty count was 6/7 - 1 in favour of Wales, plus, the sin binning.
The only second half score for them was on 77/78 mins to tie the game, which was a great effort after having to defend for much of the 2nd half, which was mainly due to the penalty count or, lack of discipline, depending on your view point.
