Excuse me? I'd like you to show me anywhere where we pay less then the minimum wage??

^So JK is training tomorrow then?

Not slagging off vasty questioning putting two 16yr olds in a first team squad,briscoe is 19 or 20given a 4yr contract at16 should have been pushing for a first team place at rhinos, the fact he's not shows me he's gone steadily downhill and my eyes didn't lie when I've seen him play,but eh let's see how he does might surprise me and the folk in charge can judge a player better than me

Your contribution tothe web discussion is most welcome... Nay valuable. However posts like this really do not help your cause... As far as I am aware people on this thread are duscussing the signing on loan of one (possibly two) signings reported in the local (YEP) press... An account which quotes their current boss (Gary Hetherington) in the process.

I am not sure what people are expected to discuss other than these issues...

Further I am not sure which of the thread topics causes your mirth... The reported signing of Briscoe, the reported snag with Keinhorst, the supposed lack of young talent,or he the plethora of young talent displaced by the supposed signing of the two loanees?

You are doing a good job at the club as are the people you have put around you... Don't spoil it by acting like an angry demigod. If the press have it wrong then say so simply and distinctly...

Don't start fights with the thing you need most... Your fan base.

I respect your opinion. However if this is a forum, and open to discussion, then why can't I just state my point. Or am I not allowed to do that?

In my (respected) opinion the reason is simple... because you are different...
You can choose to do whatever you like, but the history of relationships between senior staff/owners and forums suggests you should be circumspect.

Oh don't worry, I'm fully expecting a shed load of flak over the next 12 months......... As soon as we lose a game in fact.
I just don't like things stating as fact when they are not. Yesterday's stadium stuff being a prime example?

I suppose it might help if the 'fact' you're taking issue with was more clearly highlighted?

I'm not fussed myself - this forum will always be an arena for flights of fancy and idle musings, and it only takes one 'fact' gleaned from a mate who is in the know over a couple of pints to spark off a multi-page debate, as if said 'fact' were indeed an actual fact, rather than just pub gossip dressed up as a fact.

One thing that's for sure - if you worry about correcting every idle rumour that's posted on here, you won't get much sleep over the coming season, and that IS a fact!

I don't see what the fuss is over taking loan players on, all teams lose young players for whatever reason and we are no different!, i don't think we've done too badly out of loan players the last few season, erm young Cumbrian prop struggles in rhinos team comes on loan at wakey then then signs fulltime becomes a real favourite then earns the club 70k when were in need! Just one of many that have come to wakey that stared with a loan!

No that's not the case, most fans don't mind loosing as long as we play well and everyone gives their all. We fully expect to loose many of our games this season, but its the manner of the defeats that will count.

Luke is a very good young player and will be very useful as he can cover several positions.

He needs first team rugby and I am sure he will prove to be an asset next season.

He is another local lad that came through the Trinity Scholarship system like Daniel Smith but chose to sign a contract elsewhere.

Ironic they come back to make a name where it all started.

Does that mean they are both 'actually one of our own'??

Yeah point taken. Won't stop some though. And I'm still prepared #broadshoulders

Daddy Cool

What do you mean "lose a game"? Talk about negativity eh?

Keep posting on here, it's refreshing to get honesty from someone in a position like yours.

I would hope they have some loyalty to the clubs. I had the pleasure of coaching both of then when when I was involved and they are both good honest lads who you would hope have some pride pulling in the Wakefield shirt.
