Just because in an interview you say with no disrespect it then permits you to say what you should not - then that does not entitle you to exercise disrespect by encouraging actions on that point of view, in fact it's carrying out the undermining he is intending & promoting !
Good on Tom for his reaction & Chester's reaction.
Over to you guys, as I am a little fed up with snide suggestions of our performing stars being open to suggested moves away ?
Up the Trin !

I suppose we still suffer from that 'little old Wakefield' mentality. The best thing that this group of players can do is go on and actually win something.......over to you boys!!

He asked a question and TJ answered it. I don't have a problem with that.
It's only a small number of clubs that have won the GF so he could asked that question to most of Super League.

It's disrespectful if they keep asking.

Tom gave a good answer to a 'fishing' question.
As a whole if SL is to flourish, all the club's need to be strong, not just the top 4 or 5, after all that's the name of the competition, Super League, not Super Top 4 or 5?

It's also undermining during matches to keep saying hot property rather than giving the accolades he & the club deserves, if he was at another club they would not use the constant barage of not property but Dave about him & the club, all I would like is parity !

Didn't see it. If he implied a move to another SL club as a means for TJ to improve himself, that would be disrespectful. If he meant the NRL then that's maybe more acceptable and could even be construed as a compliment.

Poor from a broadcaster. Parrallel attitude to the halfwit Leeds supporters who said ‘no ambition’ when he signed his last contract.

Would love to win something to shove in the pundits faces.

Whilst watching On Sky I thought that It was like Man United v some mid table Swedish part time team or England v Faroe Islands.


Really pleased I cancelled my Sky sports.

So you cancelled it after watching sky doh!!!!!!

Yeah right and watch out for splinters from that fence you sit on.

I think 'I don't have a problem with it' is clear enough.

He's a reporter and should ask questions like that. If Sky keep asking then they are trying to force the answer they want which would be too much.

Did he say, 'with all due respect to Wakefield?' Just sounds patronising, condescending etc. The night before watching the Salford game, there was a similar thing with Jackson Hastings coming back to Salford, when it was intimated he could have basically signed for one of the top clubs, but if remember rightly, it was worded slightly differently.......

Not sure that I agree with you on that on PT.

I know that TV pundits in football are always talking about players not being good enough, managers who should be sacked and players maybe wanting to move on to bigger and better things but, it's downright disrespectful to Trinity, end of story.
IF Wakefied were a League 1 or Championship club, that line of questioning MAY be appropriate but, this type of question is designed purely to undermine Trinity and potentially unsettle a player and modern cynical world, who knows why he asked the question, especially after Trinity had just mullered the UK's biggest club.

He should have asked the Leeds players if any of them thought they were good enough to get in the Trinity side ??

This, well said Wren

He's only voicing what everyone else was saying.
Everyone on here was worried when there was a suggestion Fifita might go.
I'm sure Wigan and Leeds are not worried about their top players coming to us.

I'm just happy we are a high enough club to keep them both..... and Tupou. He'll be the next one they talk about. You might as well prepare yourself now.
