Quote: Uptoncat "Completely the wrong kind of player for a club like Wakefield. Wakey need grafters and players with heart and resilience. Smith got his recruitment horribly wrong barring Tupou and arona'"

So Anthony England, Scott Moore and Stuart Howarth were poor signings then?.....

England I'll give you, Moore hasn't played yet. Howarth is average, looked good because rest are so poor but he's a 110% man.

England is our best prop, Moore is injured but saved us in the MPG and Howarth is a player you described Trinity need...a grafter.

Moore had a stinker in the MPG and then came up with the try that clinched it.

Just because he's a grafter and what's needed doesn't make him a good player or a good signing

Anthony Tupou is quality and would get in most superleague 17's.

England, Arona & Simon are good props and would probably get a place in some teams first choice of 4/5.

BJB decent winger in a good side, not what is needed in a struggling one. And not a first choice fullback anywhere.

Bill Tupou would be a handy winger if we played him therr, but hasn't got the skills or defensive nouse as a centre.

Johnstone is a work in progress and will probably end up fulfilling his potential elsewhere.

The rest of the squad aren't good enough for superleague, simple as. Some of them are triers yes but not up to standard.

Its a shame with BJB, seen him do some handy work when we're going forward and he's steady under the bomb, but his impact on defence is poor. But with the squad we've got, what do you do?

Only sensible thing I can think of is BJB --> wing Hall ---> Fullback---Arundel ----> Centre.

I said when we signed BJB that I thought he was overrated and not really all that and unfortunately I am yet to see anything from him to prove me wrong.

Pretty unbelievable that in a thread criticising BJB's lack of heart and defence it is being suggested he is replaced at full back by Hall. Out of the frying pan into the fire in that respect.

I think we need to give players a run of games in a position before switching or dropping them but agree BJB needs to step up his efforts and cut out the errors.

Arona is quite possibly the worst of the lot. Heart the size of the pea. Think he's been spending too much time with Scruton the skipper.

Grafters do not usually play at full back or wing.Remember Leeds did not offload Bishop, he was offered contact extension , but chose to leave for regular game time.Admittedly he is not at his best, but you do not score the tries I have seen him score without having above average ability.Don't know exact number, but didn't he score 20 plus for Salford last season?

I don't know exact number he scored for Salford but scoring that number he needs to be on the wing then. You cant deny he has pace but he is not a good full back he has a lack of communication when organising the defence besides being weak in his tackle. I would not put Hall at fullback that showed last season how much a fullback he is. I would put Tansey at fullback the time he did play fullback he organised the defence and played well Bishop for me would take Lynes spot on the wing.
