If all you want from a 9 is tackling might as well give Crowther the job ,he can play 80 mins and play 2nd row to give some one a rest

Amazing news! I was already becoming resigned to losing him, such is the attention he's receiving. We truly are a different club, these past 5-6 years, to the one we used to be. Thanks again Michael Carter

Well done to the club on this, class player who would have moved on in the past.

Up the Trin

Excellent work by the club and great news ahead of the S/T launch.
Well done

Absolutely brilliant news. Well done all concerned at Wakefield Trinity .

Really good news.
Sign of intent for next year too.

How on earth does complimenting a players tackling mean that’s all you want from him? Stupid post even for you.

It sounds like near enough half the league had made enquiries about him, good work getting him signed up.

Yes it is, and to think just a few weeks ago, someone was making mischief, saying players were in revolt. Now some players are committing themselves for the next four years. Whoever it was, that was spreading these lies, should have been named and shamed.

Great news hopefuly Battye still on the radar plus another big prop and a quality halfback Kelepi 2nd row then
maybe a little competition required at centre too

Excellent news, he has been Mr. consistency since his arrival and it's great he has committed himself to the club, and well done them for fighting off stiff competition! At times he has carried the rest of the pack, especially when Fifita was absent. I think our upturn in form was mainly down to attitude, especially from the forwards who actually showed up the last few games. We need them to be more consistent next year, get a good partner for Miller, and we have the backs to trouble any team, but if we rely too heavily on Kelepi & Dave they could easily burn out towards the back end of next year, especially when depending on what is going on re. corona, there could be a lot of games again in a short space of time.......

Joe Arundel more than fits that bill

Think you’re wrong about the centres with Croft coming good and Arundal due back young Greensmith ???? looking good.

Halfback and prop yes.

Not so bothered about the prop being all that big, I want one that’s mean with a great work ethic, basically another Batty would be fine. Dave and Green/Tangata give you the size.

The think with Battye is he tackles, he last for more than 20 mins a go and he can off load. I also suspect he’s not scared of a fight either.

To me Battye is a priority.

Fifita
Green
Tangata or Naverette
Battye
Battye 2

Backup from Crowther (mr versatile) if needed and finally Tanginoa or Aydin if we are really in the poop.

We could get by on that rather nicely if and it’s an if we get some luck on the injury front. In this respect Covid has helped us, Croft, Bailey, Aydin, Bowes, Walker are probably now 12 month ahead of where they would have been normally. All have shown they can cope, at least in the short term at SL level.

You can never be sure but we may well be in a good position.

I think its great tanginoa has signed def been our stand out player over last 18 months my only concern is that is he a bad luck charm as when he signed we were 3rd on the ladder and have fallen to pieces since or am i too superstitious??

I think we may need a couple of Props, one of our incumbents on that list is on his way out, I think some of the money may have gone to Tanginoa which I think is fully deserved as he is now our game breaker for me in the forwards.
