| I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again due to last years injury ravaged season Wakefield have gone under the radar this year and have been heavily underrated - I don’t think you’ll be the last. Pitts and Westerman look inspired signings, genuine grit in Pitt’s and some real class in Westerman.
Still missing three key players in Fifita, Arona and Brough in that order.
Whilst the return of Johnstone would improve any team including yours.
That said I have Warrington down as the strongest contender after Saints, it’s far from over.

| Quote: morrisseyisawire "I've been a wires fan a long time and despite our emergence in the last 10 years I can probably still list more gut-wrenching disappointments than euphoria.
But today hurts. Really hurts. I really thought with a ballsy loss to Wigan and an impressive dismantling of Saints we'd finally found the raw desire needed to take the final step. Hell, I even bought into that band of brothers arm-linking nonsense that usually leaves me cold. With the emergence of Ashton and the fitness of Widdop I really thought today would be another statement performance despite my reservations about the starting 13.
Well there you are. I list Wakefield as my #2 team and in Johnstone they have a wonderful winger, but[icome on[/i, a team containing Ratchford, Widdop, Austin, Clark, Currie & BMM amongst others should have had little problem claiming win number 2.
A failure to do so could only come about by lack of heart, being out enthused, arrogance or abject preparation.
Whatever the reason it sticks in my throat and ravages the spririt.'"
The conditions suited the forwards battle for sure today, not great for fast, attacking rugby. Wakey just played the conditions better and never let your pack get dominance. I think thats definitely your weak spot, your whole team is class except for 11-13 right in the middle

| A Wire mate said to me at the end of last season that “BMM is like a terminator”, and last week “his mind is on going back too the NRL. I don’t know how true the latter is.

Come on buddy chin up. It's part of the plan you normally start well and finish poorly, this season you have started poorly and will go on to win the SL Grand Final.

| Just as one swallow doesn’t make a summer (as in last week) one bad game doesn’t spoil a season - nothing is won or lost in February.
As Sally says, time to assess is after 10-12 games.

Isn't it the point that its not 1 game. We are 10 losses from last 12 and 7 months since our last away win.
But you are right, we need to stay the execution and watch it all play out before us.

| To be honest, price needs to pay with his job, his poor team selection is costing us wins. He can not motivate the team, the he decides to put out there. Why persist with Burrell, I haven’t seen anything yet to suggest he will make it in super league, yet he persists in wasting as spot on him. How many coaches drop a player who was our standout in the last 2 games. Maybe he could have caught Tom Johnston in the last few minutes and kept us in the game and raised his already glowing reputation further. What message does it send to up and coming young players, ? One bad game doesn’t end our season, however we have been on a downward spiral since Easter last year. As good as our challenge cup win was and long may it live in our memory, but it should not have papered over the cracks from last year. And please take that smiling buffoon Kirkpatrick with you, he seems to be the goose that laid the golden egg, it’s a bad time to be a wire fan, and I’ve been watching since 1975, I have never been so bored with the style of rugby we are playing. Given the money spent. It is woeful, the book has to stop with the coach, and his staff.

| It's not team selection that is the problem, nor is it fitness. We have a spine of D Clark, Austin, Widdop and Ratchford whom most other teams would die for. The rest of the team were more than good enough- on paper at least. It has to come down to coaching.
Toronto at home this week should be an easy win (famous last words) so it's all about how we perform. I'm not bothered about a cricket score, what I want to see is attacking rugby and 100% effort.
