Now then, you've got me wondering who you might be. Banging bass line. Banging tune. Banging album.

Allegedly Trinity have approached Whinos for Luke Hooley for a short term loan but were turned down by Rohan Smith.

Squad for Friday: https://twitter.com/WTrinityRL/status/1 ... KtlL0tAAAA Smith and Kay in there, hopefully both fit.

That’s a good 7 starting players. No doubt I expect a headline to say “depleted Hull KR missing 4/5” rather than acknowledging Trinity doing it tough as per usual.

Again though that’s quite a horrific list. Every year it seems to be with us.

That said it cannot be an excuse. The team played well last week and should probably have got the win.

The team we have is more than capable of going a step further and winning if the attitude is same of the Salford game.

I’m looking forwards to Friday and can’t wait for this one. I really hope the players can go out there and show everyone we aren’t just here to make up numbers and we are to be taken seriously.

Full page
in daily star today dedicated to Will Peters bemoaning Wakefield pitch with pictures of players with cut and bleeding legs. Saying he Hope's he doesn't lose players through injury. On that playing surface.

The media and every club are absolutely loving smashing the club in the media at every opportunity.

It’s not mentioned once but multiple articles on multiple platforms daily. It was every day after the Catalans game, every day in run up to Hudds gamd and every day in run up to this game.

The fact remains that it has passed 3 inspections and has been deemed fit to play on. The club according to professionals have met the benchmark for game to be played in terms of criteria.

I’m getting fed up of seeing all these articles daily.

Those pictures are from a month ago? Certainly a fair few weeks old.

Leeds pitch at times over the last 5 years wouldn’t of looked out of place with players sat on deck chairs eating 99’s and Barrie mac giving donkey rides. Sport is an absolute joke at times. If they’re that worried get them to dress up like Theo ‘Jacques Cousteau’ Fages in that divers suit he wore.

Kr got Parcell Coote and Storton back in their squad so as much as lost players they have gained some back. I regards to Hooley my guess is a lot of teams are reluctant to release players to us as early in the season but some of the scaremongering may have also had an effect. Possibly why Shaul isn't allowed to come

Who actually installed our pitch? I remember seeing the machinery during the work but can't recall the logos.

There's lots of ways of looking at things aren't there. 6 of those players featured in the first 2 games and we nearly conceded 100 points! We have certainly improved in defence in the last few games, and clearly we came very close at Salford. I actually do think we have a decent(ish) squad, not as bad as some are making out.......but, the more we keep on losing, closely or not, that argument diminishes by the week. The one thing I will say is, I think the squad is a bit top heavy in certain areas and too light in others. We have 1 out and out full-back, but probably 5 players who can jump in at dummy half and they are all much of a muchness! We also can't seem to find Langi's best position, so if he goes back to centre, that would be tough on Hall if he were the one to miss out??

Parcell and Coote will be the deciding factor, both class players. To be honest even with a fully fit squad we would struggle.
