doing their best is a basic minimum requirement of anyone that plays sport at any level. not sure why that deserves credit as it's the default position.

That is so poor I'm not sure how to reply.
Doing your best in a sports context is not the same as trying hard.
Clearly at Wakefield we have watched players who have not given their best so it is not the norm.
Personally I give credit to anyone who pulls on the Wakefield jersey and gives their best.

these surely would make them the exceptions, and hence the rest, i.e. those giving their best, the norm.
it's not complicated.

| Some times players don't play their best, happens in every game played, doesn't mean they weren't trying their best though att.

Yep he did run the ball in hard and looked for work but his errors in defense were utterly terrible. Your view is akin to reviewing a resteraunt by saying the starter and main were fine although i was a little disappointed to find a turd in my triffle.'"
Probably because he's right and you're talking crud as normal. Have you ever defended against a winger as good as Hall, no thought not. Don't let the Leeds shirt fool you Ryan Hall is a big strong unit and the best winger in the SL - even the Aussies found him hard to play.
The pathetic reference to a turd in the trifle means I can only suggest one thing, sit down and give your brain a rest.

Surely those giving their average is the norm.......why is that difficult!

Did someone have to right that for you? Copying a clever comment doesn't make you clever!
But I agree lets move on. I'll still feel the way I do and I'm sure you'll remain the same.

Even better.'"
Exactly and I noted, with annoyance, when I watched back last night. Messrs E & S didn't once mention that point. But always willing to bang on about how many British players Wig, Warr, Shudds etc have

Must admit I hadn't recognised that until I saw it on Heritage site. Good news for the club. As far as Sky team are concerned its hard to moan as I didn't notice myself but equally how long did they bang on about how many overseas players we had in the million pound game. Hopefully they'll pick it up for boots and all....maybe.

Tactics pretty much spot on.
Deserves some praise?'"
I've been a vociferous critic of Agar but the Leeds performance was first class. If we now go on to play more consistently like that, then hats off and I'll eat the humble pie gladly in big fat slices...we will see

Correct - I hope all those who were jumping on his back after 5 games and rejecting the whole "new squad needs to gel" argument have learnt their lesson.

Trouble is the majority of clubs fans (not just ours) have never played the game and don't understand what it actually takes to make a decent side. Many think they know everything there is to know without actually understanding the fundemental basics first. Too many arm chair coaches who think they know better than the professionals.
