Had we not got a game next weekend, you may have been playing a different Wakefield team today.
But, your right, it's a huge turnaround on last season and everyone involved at Trinity deserves a share of the credit.

Next season will be more difficult, with Leeds, Salford and probably Huddersfield all expected to improve but, we'll take what we have and hope for some luck next week !

We're a point off 6th, and that only happened in the last game of the regular season ffsake

we must have chucked at least 3+ games away this season, I don't see 9th like I don't see a glass half empty, I see as near to 6th as makes no difference.

you gotta expect a few myopic cas dime bars coming here to bitch about 1 point, because its all they have, they're not going to win anything and they've not made any improvement over last season, their only comfort is finishing 1 poxy point above wakey......which, quite frankly is laughable when you consider how disappointing their own season has been.

well, it makes me laugh anyway

I'll raise a glass to Dr Koukash.

Thanks for being useless at cheating a rubbish system.

Still an outstanding effort by us, after what happened the season before.

FFS go out and steal a newer model! I'll send you a copy of the Widnes v Wakey final in full colour to kick off your entry into the wonderful world of colour TV.

Your right actually ,forget about 79 where colour was the norm,just that long ago.
Why wouldl I want to steal one?

Lmao

I wish we had progressed as much as Wakefield this year.
I said from the beginning of the season that our recruitment wasn't good enough. Teams below us in 2015 (Hull FC, Catalans, Warrington) signed players to improve their first choice 17. We signed a past-it Joel Monaghan, NRL failure Ben Crooks and a winger from Featherstone who nobody had heard of.
Even though we have had many injuries (Shenton out for the year, Roberts has played about 5 games, Dorn has missed 10+) I don't think we would have challenged the top four.
Unfortunately our recruitment for next year isn't looking any better (Greg Eden!)
However, there is a long way to go before the start of 2016.

If you read the full report of the appeal panel which is on the RL site you will see that Koukash pays players for doing imaginary extra duties such as 'leadership training ' from an overseas company he controls. No doubt he is still at this as there is no way the RL can monitor it if the player keeps quiet. He got found out this time because the player concerned left the club and still asked for the money. Koukash refused so the player spilled the beans.

How would you know colour was the norm, you didn't even have black and white television in Cas then, even now most of your fans watch the game through Curry's shop window.

So I support Cas that must mean I live in Cas. ..great logic there Einstein!
As for the offer of loaning the dvd from your buddy watching wakey in 79 in colour for the first time.....I think I will save the witty remarks for this time next week,where I expect a wall of silence

Apologies for allowing our light hearted banter giving opportunity for the dumbing down of the thread.

By the way, we are under no illusions about what the probable outcome at LSV is going to be next week. The absolute minimum is that we'll just enjoy the build up and game on the day and be thankful for the National Media exposure and extra cash generated. Anything above that is a bonus.

Well we got the bite back from the Cas fans. It was obviously going to come.
Season isn't over though.
The end of the season is after the next 7 games. I reckon we'll be above Cas by then, which is what matters.

According to Cas all the way on the VT they had 10 first team players missing yesterday, this was promptly out trumped by towns88 to thirteen missing players and by tomorrow it will probably have risen even further.
What would be interesting to know is which of the following players that played yesterday Crooks, McShane, Gale, Springer, Milner, Patrick, Mariano, Millington, Moors, O. Holmes. would make way for these injured automatic choices?
