The other thing he’ll give Wakefield is 100% commitment to win everything he’s involved in whether it’s a tackle, a carry, a chase, diving on a loose ball etc and he’s got a bit of grub in him.'"


Great! we only need another 12 like him! icon_biggrin.gif

I have a lot of respect for your opinion and what you say is probably right but to be honest the defensive connection between the second row and centre hasn’t been that bad, we have far worse problems than that. Ashurst & Pitts have also individually gone alright defensively, their stats are high. Any gain from signing Hewitt is minimal, whereas signing a fullback, halfback or hooker would make a major difference to us. Personally thats where i’d have spent the money.

Also about the point about him having a bit of grub in him. At Wakey we get penalised for that and or discipline is bad enough already!

I agree with you regarding the spine players, we knew during last season that we needed to bring some quality into those positions but for whatever reason we didn’t.

Hewitt is 23/24 and will bring and share a lot of energy and enthusiasm that Ashurst and Pitts don’t have. Regarding the grub, I don’t mean indiscipline what I mean is he won’t get bullied and won’t let his team mates get bullied either but he’s clever enough to target a player legally.

It's only 2 weeks and knowing Huddersfield it's probably a freebie. I think plenty of the supporters know what we want but so late into the season getting players is going to be difficult especially with having no quota spots. I also think the way that things are at the club, no money will be available , So it's just a matter of accepting any scraps that may come along.
Let's hope and pray something happens,

Well getting Sam is in no way 'accepting scraps'.
This lad is quality and I'm sure you'll all warm to him. Skill, speed and a heart like a dustbin lid.
Good luck.

I’m almost past caring but personally, a half back with half a brain cell wouldn’t be a bad shout.

Sorry but I didn't mean it in that way, no doubt he is good. It's just a matter of picking up bits and bats should we get the chance, rather than going out a getting what we really need.

No slight meant against the lad, I'm sure he's a cracking player, but a back rower who is excellent defensively is far down the list of whilst we need. Will he be dislodging Pitts, if not its a pointless signing.

Sam is a fantastic player and will massively improve your squad.

You were supposed to be doing a deal for Olly Russell too once Jake Connor was back but with Theo Fages getting injured that is probably going to be off now.

Hewitt is not just a defensive player, he has got good attacking skills too, and scores his share of tries. Earlier in his career he made too many mistakes and that limited his first team appearances, but if we hadn't have signed Rushton and Harvey Livett (no idea why we signed Livett he adds zero to our team and we have loads of cover for that position), Hewitt would probably be a fixture on the bench for us this year. Hope the move isn't made permanent as he is a player with a great future ahead of him

I brought Sam from football where he was highly regarded to Rugby when he was 12 and then coached him at community, school and Academy level.

He has a great force of character, aggression and positivity which he spreads to his team mates. As has already been said by others he gives nothing less than 100% in everything and crucially the more the adversity builds the more he doubles down and gets stuck in to the opposition and his own team if necessary. I’d want him stood with me in a battle!

He has good footwork, reads plays very well on both sides of the ball and has an equally good attacking game as defence.

I don’t know if this is a compliment or not but Wigan have tried to take him from Huddersfield numerous times since he was 16. They (Matty Peet) saw a bit of Jon Bateman in him.

Anyway, I hope he goes well during his stint at Trinity

Looks to me that he can also play centre according to some reports, now that is a position we are struggling with at present imo.

Sounds to me we have brought in a square peg to fit in to a round hole again Smith a hooker who can play stand of ,This coaching staff have lost the plot big time more money wasted .As a post said ,a 6 with half a brain would have been better We needed a player to strengthen the team not a player were we have 4 or 5 players for that posion
