Personally I am sick of Chester's treatment of Max Jowitt.

The lad is very good and his confidence has been hit by a poor coach failing to recognise his attributes and work with him not criticise him

If Max goes I am finished after watching Wakefield for 60 years.

I know a decent player when I see one and we don't need another full back.

With no announcement on who the coach is going forward, I'd be interested who's signing this is. The club, Chester or incoming coach. My guess is that with all the negativity surrounding Chester they're picking the right moment to announce his contract extension. As for Gaskell I doubt he's coming to be a back up so I expect at least 2 of Max, Alex Walker and Hampshire to be on their way.

Any of Gaskell’s so called flair will be sucked dry within two weeks of training.

Hampshire and Gaskell are essentially the same player, they can cover a variety of positions so I would anticipate Trinity won't need two players like that. Walker has been poor so ought to be let go. Jowitt has been excellent aside from a substandard game against Cas. Will he stick around to play second fiddle again. Chances are we'll end up with Gaskell and Walker.

Spends most off his time injured so the real problem will be team continuity which is what Huddersfield know, all too well,
Does this mean walker - full back is not re-read signed ?

I more or less see him as a direct replacement for a Walker.

He can cover 1,6,7 so all considered it’s not a bad signing. Will be useful for the squad.

Not sure he will be a starter. Think Jowitt would remain starting full back if we sign him back up (I hope).

Absolutely no change he’s signing to be a back up. And given we’ve apparently outbid other teams i doubt we see him as that either.

I’m not sure this is a good move by Trinity, he has been injury prone, and often goes missing. Didn’t do a lot for Giants tonight as they lost to Salford.

I believe it was only one team. I doubt it will be an exceptional contract. We will have to wait and see how our squad looks for 2022 after the signings and re signings to get a better idea.

More competition isn’t a bad thing. Imo Jowitt is the better player of the two and at 24 his best years will be coming up. I do hope we sign up Max but we will just have to see.

Salford & Hull KR were in for him and he turned down a new contract at Huddersfield. If i was Jowitt i’d be off to be honest.

What a mediocre club the MIGHTY TRIN GETTING excited by Lee Gaskell what have we become...

If true, he's not coming to play back up and after CC named Max for the error, it seems that he's trying to make it impossible for Max to stay, then when he leaves, he'll say they offered him a contract and he turned it down, what else could we do?
Another classic way of deflecting the blame from himself.
Swapping a 24 year old for a 31 year old sounds about right at the moment, the way the club is going.
We'll be signing LMS next.
