If I was in charge at Wakefield I would be speaking to Wigan about taking Hill, Eseh, Forber, Shorrocks and Farrimond on loan.

Might not be on every super league teams radar , but a very good player nonetheless , big powerful unit ,will add some size and experience to our squad

I see the negative nellies and touchline coaches are quickly and predictably back out in force, knowing better than a top coach and stating the obvious about fitness. Ellis in charge for less than a week and he's already disappointing some. I'd like to say I'm shocked, but far from it. If I were him I'd have saved my cash and bought another Ferrari. In the mean time you carry on building the club up to the public and getting them back on the terraces, oh wait a minute.

mmm I'm not sure on that one

With the signing of Thornley and others, let's not forget we are a championship club. I am more than happy with every signing so far . Also I think some of them are better players than the ones we had whilst in SL.

Plus it's early days, the squad is still being assembled and I am sure we will assemble a very good squad. We now have people running the club who know far more about rugby. The club is also being run in a far more professional manner, onwards and upwards, good times ahead.

What people are forgetting is we are doing business proper late due to the takeover. Mills has mentioned this, so the club should be commended with what they are doing.

Happy with this, I think he is a better and any we had last season and should go well in the championship

I'd say this is a crack at the new regime, as well as being a touchline coach, wouldn't you? And that's without going on Facebook and picking comments up from there.

Beat me to it.
Obviously some on here have a selective memory.....

I agree but it's one maybe two posts disappointed with the first signings.
It's hardly negative nellies yet.

I'm happy to see how the team pans out but people are allowed to say whether they like the signings or not.

Thornley is a solid signing.
What’s happening with Lyne, Croft, langi?

We are short on forwards and ideally need some props. Is Issac Shaw staying or is he goi g back to Aus?

He was in France temporarily last year not Aus. Strangely we didn’t see him play last season.

We have about 10 confirmed so we need players in every position still.

With a SL budget almost every plsyer we sign should be of SL quality or potential.

He’s a big unit, the Wiggin fans seemed to hate him when we played them a won and he left the field early but I’m sure he’ll do well for us with a regular spot.
On your basis Luppy, how does Hampshire fit that profile having hardly played last year. Some people just live to moan.
Let’s let the new brooms give it a good clean.

I hope Powel does for you what he did for Cas, You will surely be a force next season ,If you sign Thornley and Jerry you will certainly get some tries. Jerry has not got a bad record injury-wise he did have one bad one which he completely recovered from other that that he has just had the odd one here and there like most players get, TJ didn't have the best record at your place but look at the season he has had in France. I wish we had kept Jerry personally but hey ho he will be a great signing for you and good luck next season
