That's an understatement.....

Not denying his quality although I’d argue just how good he was for Catalans last season

If Linham shouldn’t replace Murphy then I can’t see how you justify Langi replacing Hall who was a big part of why Murphy played so well last year

I’d play Langi at 13

Commitment, motivation & desire to play for a club like Wakefield was lacking yet we aren’t judging him as harshly as Tom Linham!

Incidentally, I’d start Langi at 13 but I can’t at this juncture justify him replacing Hall

But they can see a picture right in front of them of a players foot clearly in touch when a try has just been awarded with the lineman stood half a metre away and the ref right in front of him, it`s probably these instances they think back to when at the match and see a decision go against the team and probably have little confidence in the fact that the officials are actually doing there job right.

I always remember one bloke behind me in stand been told to shut up by another fan at Warrington as he thought they had been given an extra tackle which led to them scoring and winning the game, I mean surely a ref knows how to keep count of a set of tackles? Turns out he didn`t.

Surely those should have been questions for when we signed him though? Not something that we keep going back to when we have to select the team.

I didn't say I could justify Langi replacing Hall, I just think Hall will be the one that misses out this week. There has been a couple of comments on the Facebook Group that makes me think he's been left out. Might add that we played Hall at Full Back against Hull (not sure why) and some of the comments afterwards was that he needed the game time (has he had an injury that we didn't know about in pre-season or something). Applegarth has the luxury of having multiple people available in multiple positions and if he feels the need to rest someone this week then he is able to without having to go so deep into his squad to find that replacement.

We went over our budget to sign Langi, I just don't see why we would have done that only to see him sat in the stands.

Why are we taking the clubs best centre and wanting to play him in the pack i dont understand it keep our best players in there best postions will surely be best.hall and langi in centres for me.the only issue is the wings who misses out in lineham,murphy or jorge

Very strong winds being forecast for Friday and BBC weather forecaster saying there could be some disruption to flights at Leeds/Bradford Airport so I hope Catalans take that into consideration before setting off ...don't mind if they get travel sick though, as long as they get here

Who says Langi is the clubs best centre, that’s your opinion not a fact. Now he may well prove to be the best we’ve got but at this moment in time Lynne and Hall have proven to be one of our best centre pairings for years, maybe as far back as Domic & Atkins/Demetriou

That's quite a statement considering they've played just 13 games together, and only won five of those.

Really lynne and hall best centre pairing in years they hardly ever played together i can only think you had a brain fart and thinking of lynne and topou or you think that hall and lynne where better than those too,as you say we are all entitled to our opinions. As for langi he was when fit he has been a regular starter for arguably one of best teams in the comp somthing lynne and hall havent,i like both hall and lynne and its good to have 3 top centres and yes in my opinion langi is the best
