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.

Gaskell shouldn’t count, we won’t miss him. The opposition would though.

If you say so.

Langi’s best position is and always has been Centre. He was playing quite well at centre. I don’t think I’d play him ahead of Hall/Lyne on the basis of Salford game. With Proftpr out I’d consider playing him at 13 but then Battye has played more 13 than Langi has recent years. He might have to wait.

My team would be:

Kay
Taufua
Hall
Lyne
Kershaw
Smith
Lino
Atoni
Bowes
Whitbread
Ashurst
Hewitt
Crowther

Forbes
Eseh
Butler
Langi/Battye/Pitts - for LF

Definitely a team capable of winning
