Its a great idea in theory but you really are gambling on keeping most of your first 17 fit. The other way is to try and get players who can do a good job in several different positions rather than just filling in.

When CC says quality he means we have no 'wince' players. The quality of the players at Wakefield varies but I personally can't think of a player that makes me wince when I see his name on the team sheet which is a relatively new experience tbh.

Keegan Hirst for example is IMHO our least able prop, however I still think he does a decent job for us - ditto a few others - all are basically playable. Most pleasing of all is that youngsters like Batch and Crowther do not in any way weaken the team which again is a relatively new experience where young players are concerned.

So no it's not quality in the truest sense of the word but it close.

Wood at 7 tonight!

looks like "negotiation" progression has hit the buffers then...

Hampshire at 7 Wood at 6 no Miller.

Having seen the team we have put out glad I decided to stay at home and save my dosh.

Weakened squad hopefully will give it a go not expecting anything.

Up the Trin

Fuck up from Grix, probably under instruction.

I get we have injuries but this is pretty poor so far defensively.

Well done Randal you idiot

We leak so many tries in the corners, and have done for about 12 years.

Pretty ty attitude tonight. Feel sorry for the fans who paid to watch this.

Jowetts having a nightmare

Fullback who can’t catch!
