I am sick of all the excuses - 1)RA didnt sign the players.Those players are good players and are underperforming massively. 2)The team needs time to gel - for christs sake they train with each other every day and half of um will be already putting feelers out for moves this autumn 3)packs not big enough - ever heard the expression "its not the size of the dog thats in the fight that counts, - its the size of the fight thats in the dog that matters".
Its about time people took responsibility. I cant stand all this get behind the team tosh all the time. I am watching players with no heart, showing no effort and some people want me to cheer for them. Some of um should either shape up or quite literaly ship out.'"
Well said you are 100% on the ball. |

| Quote: Theboyem "Korki's powers were very much on the wane and it was right to look for a better option. What wasn't right was to release him (same could be said for Higgins & Hickey) and not adequately replace him. Right now he would have been a better bet than playing Southern or even now Aiton at prop!'"
100% correct. |

Shame we cant sign stu dickens from featherstone, he seemed to go well in both the games against superleague opposition. Him or one of the props for sheffield mitch stringer or jack howison both have played well surely worth a punt to see how they go?

All too long in the tooth to give up their jobs move back to superleague fulltime. |

Yes I've heard of that, have you ever heard of this expression, a good big one will always beat a good small one. |

| Quote: bren2k "Agreed.
Korki and Obst are of course looking good against part-time players, having dropped straight out of a FT environment where they've been playing week in week out for a number of years - you wouldn't expect anything else.
I wouldn't argue that we could use an additional prop forward, but I don't think Korki is the answer.'" the point is my friend he was released without first putting anyone better in place. watched him 3 times this season, he is playing great rugby and in some games seems to have found an offload. i have watched wakefield play every game this season and last , home and away and i would honestly say a pack full of young lads and a couple of old boys were head and shoulders better than what wakefield have this season. i have also watched hickey playing reserve in a couple of games and he went ok. looks fit and aggressive. wakey could do a lot worse than give him a play and pay contract. a lot of the wakey guys this year are massively underperforming. if just half of them would buy into the same mind set as cockaine , mathers and fox you would be getting somewhere. said last season, don't throw the baby out with the bath water. they did. |

I've been to watch korki twice this year and he looks pretty much the same as last year but obviously looking OK against part timers isn't going to tell you the full story and going on his previous efforts at our club we were right to move on. Couldn't give a monkeys uncle about Hickey, couldn't be d last time, doesn't deserve another chance, he was a straight embarrassment.
