"The Golden Generation finally has its Golden Fleece! They have Wembley Cup Final winners medals to add to their collection." 23/08/2014:



We should just clone 16 Tom Johnstone’s and play a team full of them to keep Wakefield fans happy.

Should we drop the guy who was the best player on the pitch in the 2nd test?

No

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG



Another outstanding game with a couple of tries from Makinson he might just sneak the Golden Boot Award, we.ve not had may british players with that accolade, so give it a go Tommy.

What you looking at?....Butt Head!!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_68072.jpg



Bennett will keep the same team, unless there is an injury or a ban to Burgess and rightly so. It's a test match and caps should be earned not given away. Makinson was class at the weekend but he himself may find himself out the team come next year if Hall plays well in Sydney.Johnstone is knocking on the door and his time will come. We should embrace the fact we have around half a dozen world class or potential world class wingers.

If that was to happen Makinson would join the great Kevin Sinfield. It’s a tough ask as a winger. Has a winger ever won the award?

The Leigh and Wakefield fans mentality...... Say something negative about any other team than theirs - Its an opinion Say something negative about Leigh and Wakefield - TROLL:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_77270.jpg



I’m sorry if I’ve upset you sake slim. I was just replying to a wakefield poster. I will make sure if I don’t agree with something that someone says on here I refrain from posting in case you get offended

Quote: ThePrinter "So Vastman can say they are better wingers in SL and another poster isn’t allowed to name one without it being trolling? That’s ridiculous and whilst those few posters are guilty of trolling on many other occasions this wasn’t one of them, you’ve just seen the posters name and decided it was based on that and not what was written which is a fair argument.

When Michael Carter’s name wasn’t on the best owner thread Waley fans kicked off insisting his name should be mentioned and it was trolling not including it. Now Wakefield fan says they’re much better wingers in SL and when someone mentions one it’s trolling to bring their name up? What ridiculous hypocrisy. Just blaming him for a thread derailment when it was mostly caused by Wakey fans critical of Makinson because someone dare rate a winger that isn’t one of their own.'"


So what if vastman said there were loads of flying wingers in SL better than Uate, it doesn't have bugger all to do with that dude chipping in with his obvious baiting post, if you can't see that it's more to do with the chip on your shoulder about Trinity you've had for the past season or so. The funny thing is I bet vastman was including Makinson in that list of better SL flyers as he put it.
Also before that post, I had no reason to think he was anything other than a genuine poster, so you're completely wrong on the play the post not poster bull. ATEOTD there was no thread derailemnt till that post, Vastman commneted about Huddersfields signing which is on topic, then two others did what you're accusing me of hypictrically, they played the poster and not the post and went off on a tangent.

Anyway this has gone way beyond boring now.

"It's the refs fault again". Biggest moaning whingers in RL.:



Wakefield fans really are a strange strange breed.

For the record I'd have Makinson in my side over Johnstone any day of the week. Better all round player.

I doubt Johnstone would've stopped the tries Makinson stopped on Sunday plus TM can play centre or full back too.

Johnstone will get his time though given his age.

And as a Trinity fan I agree and so do so many many others funnily enough.

So I take it this isn't a bait thread with just the job of getting a rise out of one set of fans? icon_cool.gif

This place does make me laugh though, you'd think Trinity was the first team over the decades that wanted their player in instead of a player on another side, especially when they're both top players. I remember all the arguments over who was going to get picked between Wigan, Saints, Leeds and Bradford fans back in the day, relatively small fry nowadays.

Why is praising Makinson baiting?

LOL why bring Makinson up in a new signing thread? Start a new one about him, if he wanted to call him the best winger in SL and all that. The point was that's where the thread became derailed and is all i pointed out, If you can't see it for what it is, I care less at this point. icon_lol.gif

You’ve proven yourself to be an idiot and probably affiliated with Jean and Kev as well

Why when someone posted they were looking forward to seeing Uate should Vastman reply that theirs better wingers than him in SL? Absolutely no different. Still can never be Wakefield fans fault even though they’re the reoccurring theme in every derailed thread.

"Stand by me as I stand by you, be brave and dare to dream".:



As a Cas fan I can see both sides of the “real” argument here having been part of it recently.
Having had too few good players over the last 20 years it’s easy for wakey fans to get giddy when you produce a home grown genuine quality player so you get behind them & are stunned when others don’t think they’re as amazing as you do it’s usually cos they’re used to seeing that level of quality on a more regular basis.
On the flip side Fans of so called bigger clubs don’t like a newcomer at the table forcing them to look at someone who doesn’t play in their 4 team league & they don’t want to play with the new kid so stick together Hoping that the newcomer will go away soon enough leaving them to discuss themselves to death.
