| korkidas is very much a confidence player, i believe he had the most confidence at wakefield therefore played better.The wakefield fans really psyched him up, dont think he got that at salford or especially cas.looking forward to seeing the bloke at home the guy shud be playing his best rugby as we all hope to see for the next 12 games in hand.
Ill never forget that almighty rampage at hull,gud look korki.

| Quote vastman="vastman"Because we don't all share your point of view.
Korky is not a bad signing but he is not IMO the great signing you and others suggest. He is nowhere near the player some on here suggest, I find it almost embaressing the adulation he receives compared to the likes of Blayimire and Snitch for example who are far more accomplished in their respective positions than Korky IMHO.'"
I don't think he is a great player and didn't when he was here before.
I think it's a great signing given the circumstances. We could have retained a bench warmer ala teapot (which is what he would have become after he burned the bridges) but we have swapped him for a commited player.
Good business

Are you suggesting you would rather we have Korkidas than Griffin?

I bet a good 90% on here would claim Korki to be the better player.

| Quote Haywire="Haywire"Yeah, we won't mention the lost balls, missed tackles, penalties and the effort when he tried pushing the Celtic man towards our line! Give him the benefit of the doubt and enjoy the win!'" whats your problem mate. no lost ball, got ripped out. who cares which way he pushes a player as long as he tackles them. the guy played ok for my money. got stuck in, made some good yards, nothing fancy. looks fitter and faster than i have ever seen him. think we have got a right deal. when you hear nathan brown say " it will take weeks to get sculthorpe fit enough to play for shudds" it's not as if we have players queuing round the ground wanting to play for us. this guy wants to play for us, may not be the best in the world but at least he gives 100% well done korki. you should get behind our players, not take cheap shots.

Who made a cheap shot? Its called having an opinion, sorry if you disagree - I am 100% behind all our boys and nothing would give me more pleasure than Korkidas proving me wrong and showing he deserves his God like status amongst some fans. Rest assured pal, if and when he does I will be the first one to appologise - unlike some I have been more than happy to admit I am wrong in the past.
I would love to play for the side, I could promise to give 100% if they gave me a game at the weekend, I would try my heart out and do if for no money too. Doesn't mean Kear should give me a ring though, does it?

He was fit enough to be our man of the match only a couple of weeks ago so I wouldn't pay much attention to that.

| Quote t-r-i-n-i-t-y="t-r-i-n-i-t-y"No, not 'legendary' enough to do so. And yes, this is my hobby horse, but to describe him as such really demeans that tag to the real legends of this club who actually won things and brought glory to the name of Wakefield Trinity. I've never understood the culture of over-praising the average, and perhaps thats why I don't see this as the second coming others do when technically and skillwise, we've got second best in this deal.'" mate, what do you mean "we have got second best in this deal". when the lump known as sculthorpe was constantly injured, constantly overweight. gave away his fair share of penalties. ok he had a decent offload , but a lot of them went to ground. brown says it will take weeks to get him fit to play for shudds. well over-rated imo. thats when he actually played. as for korkidas no one says he is a ball playing international forward or a willy mason or a bloody legend. only people like you take that seriously. he is just a straight forward prop that will take the ball up all day, make good yards and make mistakes as they all do. give the guy a chance.

No I was not comparing him to Griffin I was just refering to how when Sculthorpe burned his bridges he would have only ended up sat on the Wakey bench as Griffin did at the end of his stay at Wakey and that signing Korki is better than a bench warmer.
IMO of course
