I'm sure they have their hands permanently up but Chester is looking the other way.

What’s actually wrong with K Wood? last I heard he was going to miss the first couple of games?

The first couple and then said under is breath a few more as well .Think a 32 year old is going to make a lot of difference .Been ok but think to pin our hopes on him is a bit unfair on him

I agree. I'm not suggesting Arundel is the saviour but if he's fit he's a solid genuine centre who can draw in the opposition and put his winger away. Tupou is a converted winger to centre and off form.

Senior is a young lad getting battered week in week out.....give him a rest and put Tupou to wing.

I feel Tangata should be given a run and if not up to it lets see it on the pitch rather than a quota player sat in the stands.

I also believe Tanginoa should be put back to second row with hopefully the props being Fifita, Battye, Green, Tangata v St. Helens.

I think the second row options have not got size or impact and seem to appear off form so maybe there should be consideration to put Arona as the back row interchange (has he lost weight he looks smaller than last year?) who needs to be in the 17 but doesn't seem to be a natural prop in my opinion.

Johnstone injured then maybe give Kershaw an opportunity to help with go forward ....

I really hope you're right but I thought he was lucky to stay on the field (could easily have been a yellow card, or worse) and was gobsmacked when the ref didn't award a penalty to Catalans and don't forget we are Wakefield and not Wigan, so if the Disciplinary Committee run to form then he will cop a ban

In true wakey fashion we’ll probably win or be within 6 points

I wouldn't at all be surprised, we pushed them last year when all expected a walloping, fair enough it came the week after.

If we did it would be the biggest shock since god knows when.

The problem is for that to happen it will need a spark from somewhere and a joint determination.

I'm a positive fan always have been but I'm struggling to see where it will come from.

Problem is that if you play to a script that seems to last 50 minutes I'm not sure how you can ever win.

We will win this one.

If I keep saying it, I will eventually get one right

Since Headingley in 2005(?)?? We were 16 to 1 that game had a 5er on em ridiculously. We were brilliant that day

I was thinking Wigan 1988 but I'm very old.

I love an optimist - my heart says you're right but I just cannot see it.
We don't know what team will be out , because of injuries and now suspension, in fact we don't even know what the preferred 17 is.
Hope I'm wrong but I think the OP is right.
It's time for a big meeting to thrash out what is wrong. I didn't expect us to be top of the tree and won all so far, but the worrying part is we don't even look like worrying any other SL club- and at the moment I would have little confidence in us beating the likes of Leigh!
