Currie moving to loose forward, would also allow Powell to play Holmes left side second row.

Neither currie or Holmes currently warrant a place in the side. Its hard to say which one has been worse this season. I'd go currie by a whisker.

Certainly I dont think Currie appears to be playing anywhere near the standard he is capable of.
How much of that is him and how much the team set up I'm not sure.
He doesnt seem to be able to break the line and some of his defensive plays have been poor.
It's a strange one.

OK most of the team aren't playing well individually or collectively (but some of the younger guys have shown up well - Ashton, Thewlis, Wrench).
As I said, strange.

Plenty of disrespect……but Woolston Rovers could “outbid by some margin” Wakefield Trinity. Like seriously.

Yeah seriously now with plenty of disrespect who’s won the last four meetings, what a Wally you are

You got what you deserved, just take it on the chin and (hopefully) learn from it and move on ...

I was talking about the relative financial positions of both clubs mate, so I’ll stand by that if it’s all the same to you?

Sorry Moe, but you're doing Currie a disservice. He actually played well against Salford.
Holmes, on the other hand.
FFS.
I'd rather we had his Northern Irish brother, Eamonn.
Hed certainly add some much needed weight to our pack.

Maybe Trinity would accept Magoulias in a player exchange deal for Tanginoa then, since Wakefield wanted to sign Magoulias initially?

Don`t think Wire would want much for Magoulias, so Wakefield would get a player, plus a transfer fee.

Wakefield have moved on from that. And his form isn't advertising him well

To be fair, we'd have probably given him more freedom to play his game. You seem to just play him as a middle.

As for the game today, I felt you were half a great team.
You'd cut us up with ease and then the last pass went straight into touch. Bit panicky at times when it just wasn't needed. I don't think it will take a lot to change it but I'm not sure Powell is the guy.

Yes, you were. As you freely admitted you were being disrespectful to Wakefield so it must hurt when your Club with all it's financial clout simply can't buy a win over them right now.

It's all the CEO's fault isn't it?

Serious question, what happens when Moran gets fed up of spending so much for little or no return?

We can't buy a win over anyone right now.



He's been doing it for years now. We also have Middleton who is also not short of a few bob too. They may have oodles of cash but our board is dysfunctional in achieving RL success but it's their train set.
