Will Gale be cup-tied for the CC game.
He played for Keighley in their loss against Batley.

We left at 20-0, just as the North Stand chanted 'You're not fit to wear the shirt'
I don't ever remember leaving BV feeling so flat and empty, it was an awful performance.
I won't be back this season, spent 50 quid and had 6 hours kip to be up for work at 5am this morning, they are
not worth my time, money or effort.
We just need our SL time to be over now, and as quickly as possible.

Yep Gale can’t play next week. Applegarth said in his post match presser that he was fit enough to play last night he just went with Smith instead. I guess he’ll be in for the Catalan game.

We also let Rob Butler play in the cup for Bradford so he can’t play next week either.

I gave the game a miss last night after finishing late from work. Gave my ST to my mum to go with my dad. Watched it on sky. I’ve never seen an attack look so blunt in my time of watching RL. We are simply flogging a dead horse, apart from a select few, we are either simply not good enough, or possibly don’t care. The first try positioning by Lineham was nothing short of a disgrace. Apparently we look like Australia in training against our bib team, unfortunately we just simply are not good enough. Never mind Gale, we could fly over Nicho Hynes and still not win a game.

It could be said that both Warrington and Hull performed well below their best against us. I believe this is down to the fact that teams probably unconsciously know we have nothing so basically they just go through the motions.

great rendition of your not fit to wear the shirt, people finally taking off their rose tinted spectacles

Every game is the same, nothing changes, he has players that are undropable and it is all players in the middle.

We have no link up to link the left side to the right side when in possession . A ball handling forward could make a difference, not to single one player out as it is most but everytime the ball went to the loose forward it killed the ball/play.

Lino and Smith look as though they are in competition with each other instead of linking up, appreciate Dagger is still fairly new to the team but Jowitt is much better in the attacking line (Some very good defence by Dagger though)

Everything is one man rugby, no attacking plays, no runners on an angle literally pass and run forward 3 meters get tackled amble about thinking about playing the ball and rinse and repeat, zero urgency , zero idea.

Ashurst about the only player to run an angle and shock he just about scores even though that was made to look harder than it should have.
12 games in nothing has changed, every move is predicatable, we are at our worst when 20m from the opposition line, panic, kick, handover, make an error/concede a penalty/6 again, they score game over happens same time every week (60mins).

On a positive it didnt rain

Just been a dumping ground for other S L to get rid of old ,injury prone players over the last 3 or 4 year If you put that with the players, that have gone ok for Wakefield but are way past there best now, such as Lynn ,Ashhurst plus others you can see were we are. It does not matter how many Luke Gales you have on the pitch if you have no pace in the team he will make no difference . Just a slow ,old team, that are a disgrace to a great club

Lynn really aggravates me. Signs a long deal and is only 30 and should be In his prime years! Since he signed his long deal I can’t remember one good game from him. He looks unfit and a shadow on the player 2/3 years ago. He’s only 30 though. I won’t fault Lyne heart though as he loves the club and I like him but I just can’t help thinking we’ve offered some players the security of a good deal and the club aren’t getting the return they should be.

Unfortunately that happens so many times not just in lynn’s case, players suddenly putting a shift in weeks before contract negotiations then dropping off and back into easy street ,it really is a minefield keeping players hungry to perform at their max

The one play that summed up our performance related to a penalty we were awarded on their line. We passed it to a running forward but the referee called it back because he had not blown. We took the tap again and this time we still passed it to the same forward but he was stationary and actually stood about three feet from the play.
