Wakey may have finished well in the Super 8's comp, but they only finished the regular season 4 points ahead of us. Don't get me wrong we were soundly beaten in both games by yourselves, but had we won one of those we would have finished the regular season on the same points. This was a season when we had a horrific run of luck and injuries and were only saved by having one of the deepest squads in memory. For context you used 26, while we had to use 36.

If i was a Wakey fan the performances in the Super 8s would rightly have me feeling confident about finishing ahead of us and you are right there is obviously some real quality in your squad. No caveats it's a good team.

For all Justin Carney did in "exit sets", making good ground, he wasnt as prolific in scoring as he was at Castleford. In Shaw and Hall, they are PROVEN try scorers and will more or less guarantee you 20 tries between them in a season. Why Ryan Shaw doesnt get the praise he should is a dissapointment. His tries alone make him a real threat and has pace to burn.


I think if Sheens wants a Carney/Sio type winger then Will Oakes is the man for the job. Elliott Wallis is the one who excites me the most as i feel he has the best of both worlds in being strong in exit sets, and is apparently the fastest player in the squad. He is the one I feel will go the furthest out of all the wingers we have, just needs to sharpen up on the kick defence as does Oakes.

I am amazed Tommy "Turnstile" Lee is still getting a spot in any 17 in SL.

Same here! Personally I'd put Lawler in at nine and Aktin off the bench

it will probably be his last season ,unless he excels

100 per cent.
