Very much a togetherness with the team

| Had chance now to watch quite a few highlights of other championship clubs and they have more than their fair share of quality in their ranks and should provide us with some stiff opposition this season

Yes, was thinking that myself on viewing.....
Thing is - and no disrespect to any other team - we are the ones that seem to be from the other clubs perspective there to be the team to beat.

What was surreal for me ,we looked like a rugby club . One of the Championship coaches said when been interviewed ,that Wakefield look stronger than last year .Fans have got to realise that it was the first time most of them players had played together ,so think the best RUGBY is a few week away .Happy days

I agree PB I thought Hood was outstanding and his distribution from acting half set the tone . We have to maintain that standard and no relaxing, foot down for the full game every game We are a super league team playing in the championship. There will be some tough games coming up along the way and I agree we'll be the team to beat.

Hood looks in best shape I’ve seen him and in fact all the players look in good physical shape. It’s great to see and hopefully maintained as a permensnt expectation. The players looked alert and focused too which was good to see.

Hood was ferocious in defence on Sunday, the hit he did on the player then scragged him back over their line was terrific.

It was a cracker. Shots like that will be red cards in 2025 which is absolutely barmy to even fathom.

| Listening to Powell on the heritage podcast , his remit at the wires was to weed out the elitist elements of the players and bring them down to earth and mould them into a winning squad , but they obviously rebelled and as he says he was then hung out to dry by the same person/persons who had give him that challenge only months earlier when things got tough . Think Ellis will back Powell all the way in his quest to get us back not only into super league but a powerhouse in super league and one that will challenge the best clubs for honours

| Two sides to every story, but my take he's a club builder not one for fine tuning an underperforming finished product.
He's right when he says not everything in life works out, but what's important is what you learn from the failures, sometimes that can more vital than the successes. The key is not repeating them.

I’m guessing…. But I don’t think Josh McGuire helped.. he got a sizeable ban in a pre season friendly… then got another ban after a similar incident. That coupled with some players that had attitude problems, caused him to loose the dressing room at some point…. Let’s not forget that before the Second McGuire incident wire were battering teams, so something went wrong behind the scenes..
No such issues here.. the players we kept before Powell arrived have all bought into what’s going on , as was evident on Sunday. The new players lounge, stand , food and quality back room staff have all contributed to create a cracking vibe around the place.
