Its been a while since Widnes won 5 out of 7 games!

....and let's pray and hope their magnificent recent record against us continues

Obviously deciding that a dozen new players before the 8's wasn't enough, Wakey have now got Simon Grix on loan until the end of the season.

I know he has been injured for a while but if they get him up to speed that is a hell of a signing.

One of the most under rated players in SL IMO. A bit like Goulden for us, he gets through a tonne of the graft that goes unnoticed and never seems to have a bad game.

Actually, can anyone confirm this? It is being reported on Twitter and also on the Wire forum but I thought there was a deadline for signings (loans included) that started last Friday? Hmmmm https://twitter.com/the18thmanuk/status ... 9383450624

Wakefield Newcats deserve to go down, Chairman Carter telling James Webster there was 'no money to spend'. Then new coach Smith brings in 9 new players, after they gave up on super league survival/climbing the table.

Its a good job they have names on their shirts as the Wakey fans won't know which team they are actually watching. Simply moving the signing deadline would stop this. Curious as to why the have waited a week and a half to announce it....reason nothus?

We'll be the ones laughing when we get around to announcing Johnathon Thurston 10 minutes before the Hull KR match starts



Deadline? What deadline?

As has been said before, Wakefield have swapped players not added players.
And have probably reduced the wage bill by doing it.

They will take time to gel and Grix has hardly played and will be rusty. Anyway they are hardly players signed as world beaters, and Scott Moore swaped for McShane. There will not be continuity and i feel Leigh will be still stronger than Wakefield. If a deadline day then it should be no more announcements, or just change the rules.

I'm pretty certain that isn't the criteria for relegation.
