Big game is this now, not only to get a win, but to make sure our attitude is right and not think we should be going there and winning, a few times, we have built up good leads over there and then let wakey back into it, luckily we've always had enough quality to see it through.

I say we should win, but that's easy for me to say, it's how much the players want to win, because half of them didn't seem pretty bothered yesterday when the chips were down.

Sadly i can't see us taking many over, after 5 defeats already this season. But I'm sure the ones who do go , will hopefully, like the players give it their all.

well didnt quite expect to be 2nd bottom by the time this game come around but with the giants problems its no surprise now

obvioiusly we have a good record against wakey so lets hope it continues. wakey have a new coach now and gave them a boost as they did quite well last week at hull.

tansey unavailable to play this game, brierley could make his debut for us!!! unless they go with simpson, not a clue to be honest as the team is such a mess right now.. maybe go with... crabtree is fit?!

can wardle play after his red card?!

leeming has been poor , mason is not ready, but we dont have many options!

Leeming has been poor? really?

I have also seen fans slating hinchliffe and Rapira, i know it's all about opinions etc but really?

I think Hinch and Rapira have looked good in a poor team. Leeming looks solid to me. Should have had more than 20 min yesterday

Agree. Hinch and Sam looked class in a poor side.

Got our 2 tickets for wildcats this afternoon, plus coach travel. We were coach 1 , tickets 7 and 8.....so not expecting many on coaches.

Anyone know why ticket office shut after yesterday's game ? Seems daft to me.

yes been disappointed in leemings performances so far this year expected more than what i have seen on the pitch

there was a fire alarm and the ticket office staff had to evacuate.

Is that the same fire alarm that caused 2500 people to leave the stands too

dunno i had a massive sulk and footstomp and walked out after 60 minutes































joke!

Yeah Rapira has been the most consistent performer this season IMHO. Would be surprised if Brierley starts at FB. Maybe do the attack and defence switch like we did with Murphy and Foster a couple of games ago.

I would like to see Ryan in the middle first though.

To be honest I would play Ryan at half back with Danny and leave out Kyle Wood Murphy to full back if Simpson not fit and Foster on wing. Wood has the occasional good game but is below the standard we require we should throw Breirley in at the deep end as if he's the future we should take a chance

Every half break we made on Sunday just about was on the back of what Kyle wood did. I'd keep him and brough at half. If he plays for me Ryan should go in at fullback. He can join the line and go for the gaps. It sounds as if that's where the club want him long term. We will be without a fullback as tansey can't play and with Wardle copping a ban (which he will) connor will be needed at centre. The way Murphy is playing at the moment id be tempted to rest him and play foster on the wing.

So was the pass that opened a 12 point gap early doors why buy a half back and play him full back ??

For me Because his style of play wouldn't work as effectively at half back in SL I don't think. He's a poor defender and not an organising half. He's not a general. He's a Tompkins type player- has great speed and acceleration and is extremely agile- he is a great game reader and will see a half chance and take it. He is also fantastic at backing up a break. His good reads will I think make hiim good at orgAnising the defensive line and having him join the line in attack could open up some opportunities. That's the kind of FB we need.
