I'll join that list but some players are prepared to work on their game to make themselves better players and the ability to release his winger was Bill's only downside.

Ha ha. We must be the only club where the chairman calls out fans on their comments.
Love it.

| He seems to have grown in confidence & self belief since he scored the the tap penalty try against Catalan last season. He always backs himself on the tap penalties to beat the first line defence now. Long may it continue.

| I'll admit I've questioned his passing ability in the past...always liked every other part of his game...he's certainly looking an all round quality centre at the moment which is great to see and long may it continue!
Suppose it comes from hard work on the training field and then transferring it to game day...also a lot easier to do when playing with confidence like we are at the moment...pat on the back for the coaching team!

| Bill has certainly upped his game and is now a quality centre. In fact,I can't think of what you would call a weak link in the team, when they are on song they are great to watch especially with fast wingers!
I can't wait for the Saints game and if there isn't 6-7k there for that game then the Wakefield public really do need a kick up the proverbial

| Can honestly say that I don't think there is anyone in the whole squad that is not up to the job that he's given to do. I can't remember when there was such strength in depth. As for Tupou I was a bit of a doubter, but he's certainly come up to scratch now and has fed some lovely ball to his winger.

I agree. I have to praise Adam Walker who's already proving to be a first class acquisition. I personally believe that despite the well earned praise Fifita and Huby gets this guy long term will prove to be the best of the bunch, brave and hard as nails.

Don't think he'll prove to better than Fifita or Huby but I really like him so far. He seemed to pretty much never leave the pitch against Cas.

Fifita is an enigma it's hard to compare him to anyone- so much potential it's unreal. Huby I like but I reckonWalker is better. Frankly they are all pretty good. Any other year we'd be lording Hirst as a super star yet for me he's the lowest ranked prop but only just.

Having watched it a few times on Trinity TV, I think it was a reasonable pass but MCB just wasn't expecting it.
BTW, Trinity TV is fantastic value for money.
