Thanks for the info daddy cool & your honesty, I used to get hung up on not losing players i watched & valued. However I now hold the view that it a player doesn't want to sign, we move on, if a player wants more money than the market value of what the club can pay, we move on ! Thanks again from a fanatic trin supporter, up the trin.

I'm amazed that a club official posts on a messageboard. Believe me, it doesn't happen with any football club. Well, certainly not mine!

Thank you Daddycool. It is really good to bring a topic back to reality if it is going too far into the realms of fantasy!

This posting is great to read & gives me real hope for the future development of Wakefield Trinity.

Yes for customer relation skills, call it what you will, our management will not be beaten and I very much doubt equalled.

It works because he posts like a fan, its his point of view, take it or leave it. Obviously it helps that he has all the facts (most of the time) so its hard to argue.

We are getting a bit off topic but it's worth saying.

Having someone posting where everyone knows who they are in real life is absolutely against the AUP. Even if the poster wants it to be so.

I think making an exception in this case is worthwhile for everyone.
However, I have to be pretty sharp on any comments made directly to DC. It might seem unfair but if we want to keep the known account for DC in place we are going to have to protect it, otherwise we'll be forced to make the account anonymous which none of us actually want.

Max Has played really well as an attacking player outstanding in fact but as yet I haven't seen him tackle anybody.
I've watched the 4 games on Trin TV but as yet hasn't made one he's got hold of someones jersey but never tackles them

You must have been watching different games to me then.......

Same, and also the professionals who`s job it is to count the stats - Maybe they are just wrong.

Then I would suggest you try re-watching them without your blinkers on

For me it has to be 1.Rocky 6. Miller 7. Brough just based on ability, That said, if either of those players have a dip in form I would drop them for Jowett or Reynolds respectively but I think Miller and Brough were going pretty well together before there injuries.

Milky always comes good when the ground firms up and he just has that X factor. Reynolds has shown he has the ability to slot in and has shown his worth to the squad but for me we need to play our best players.

This is a really tricky situation for Chester.
However, when all of our backs are fit, I assume that he would revert to the 1 - 7 that started the season, with Brough and Miller in the halves and Rocky at FB.
It will be really tough on the players that have filled in, especially Jowitt, who has been pretty faultless but, unfortunately, that's life in any team sport.
It will be interesting to see what happens with MCB, once Tupou and Johnstone are fit.
Again, he has been superb since coming back.

It's not a problem yet but, keeping a fully fit squad happy must be incredibly difficult.
Mind you, with the number of injuries we've had, it cant be much fun having too few players to pick from.

How far away are Huby and Ashurst from being available ?

Just IMO i would think BJB is the player that has to worry about getting a spot in the back line over MCB, yes he is still quality but is 31 this summer and does not seem as clinical as he has been and seems to a lost half a yard of pace, still a great athlete and still gets on my team sheet but will he be on CC if MCB is here next year and Johnstone is fit? Either way to have 3 genuinely class proven wingers in the squad with the likes of Kershaw up and coming is a great position to be in.

Ashurst back in next 2 weeks.

Anthony England likely to be back next week as well.

Broughy back around magic weekend - Thinks are looking up
