Paul Cooke is flipping rubbish and frankly I would rather squirt jif lemon in to my eyes whilst eating a cas fans poo than see him play for us again.

I believe he is not currently of the correct fitness level for a top class athlete, has little or none of the skills required to play our sport, and I just dont like him.

Some simple coaching tips for paul

1 pass to someone wearing the same type of shirt as you.
2 If a man is running towards you holding the ball it is not considered impolite to try and stop him running past you.
3 When we have the ball and are advancing up the pitch, sometimes its a good idead to be wihin a mile of the player with the ball, supporting him.

Don't think Cooke can be the scapegoat for today's debacle.

There were a lot more poor performers than him to be honest.

A lack of basic stuff throughout the team and dreadful discipline is what cost us and Cooke was no worse then anyone for that.

A shocking all round team performance.

Im glad your not coaching Trinity...

Lockyer would have looked average today..

1. We only ever have single runners wanting the ball in attack
1A. Only King runs a decent line, all others run straight at the man..
2. Our attack is not deep enough and is too flat
3. We have no support players in attack, twice Cooke broke the line and had nobody to pass to..
4. Any half would struggle with these options
5. Your eyes are painted on

your surnames cooke isnt it????????????

Sorry pal it Rhodes..
You have obviously never played rugby before or just know nothing about it...

ok im not getting involved in an personal stuff, but one question do you thing he has been a good addition to the squad since his arrival? NOT just today when I agree he was one of many that played badly.

Whilst you have some points. Shouldn't Cooke be the one organising the line, setting up the play's, demanding the runners? He seemed to accept defeat far to early. I watched him for a long period, and he really looked like he couldn't care less and showed no pride or eagerness to set up our left hand side

I really thought Wakey and especially Mr Cooke would be up for the game today but how wrong was I.

Woeful performance by Wakefield and we got hammered by a very average side IMHO

It does beg the question, how poor must the Crusaders have been last week to get beat by us?

Sorry, but that was simply not acceptable. That's the 3rd home game on the trott now I have left with over 15 mins left on the clock. Getting more angry and frustrated by the week and am no longer enjoying the rugby on offer at Belle Vue.

Sorry to say it but Wakefield will not be getting my money next week.

Exactly Bigstuff...Cooke makes two breaks and still gets slagged off for having no pace...

I expect it was his fault Millard threw him a forward pass when he went over.

As for his tackling it was as good as any other out there. His pass that was intercepted was disappointing, but he made up for it just after with a fantastic one on one try saver on Clint Newton which would have made it 0-18.

We hit straight back from that and turned it into 4-12 within a minute or two, so that was a potential huge play from Paul Cooke but all the team let us down in all honesty.

As daft as it sounds when you look at the final scoreline...Hull KR were there for the taking but our lack of the basic skills and our dreadful discipline cost us any chance we had.

point 1 to 4 are valid too, to be fair, the line depth was driving me mental in the first half, we were never any deeper that 10 yards when we had 18 tackles on their line

I thought he just lacked effort today, and I think his time may be up soon at this top level cos if he cannot shine in that shower that is wakefield then I don't think he can do much more.

Chapster/TTD...To be fair i didnt want PC in the first place tbh, but you can only play with what you have got. Its hard for any half back to put players thru gaps when they cant run into them..Moore, Korki, Charlie, JD and other run straight at the man. I play amatuer and know 9/10 you wont get anywher running at the man. When he did make a break he had no runners with him. He gets the ball and has a flat line to aim, sometimes the ball to him isnt quick enough so his runners run him out of game...
In my eyes hes a ball playing loose, but at the minute he is all we have at 6..Some people are too quick to make him the scapegoat, but as any half knows your team mates around you also need to help you out to makew things happens.
Just look at dobson everytime he had ball 3 or 4 players gave him an option, they knew they werent gonna get the ball, but they keep the defence thinking, wakefield players dont, half of the time the dummy runners arent interested or we have no dummy runners so the balls are telegraphed..
No personal attack intended chapster...

But if you've never played or coached you are not quallified to make that comment
