I think the play where Ashurst went over was from the very first (68th min) composed play on their line.



Other than that all we’ve done is kick on the 3rd tackle.

Applegarth should never have been given the job, it’s not hindsight, I spelled out how he was deficient and what a team coached by him would look like long before a ball was kicked. He’s undermined everyone above him in order to elevate his own career and it’s resulted in him being promoted beyond his capabilities!



More fool Carter for appointing him but that said Carter was happy to use Applegarth as a cheap option and a yes man!



Sack, don’t sack him, it makes no difference now!

We’ve not been nilled, contract extension for Applegarth on the table.

He ain't getting sacked, we've been poor all season and we haven't felt the need to make a change. It's as bad as its ever been since I've been watching (1999).

Embarrassing try to concede

3 of them on him and the worst part about it is the ball was actually originally wrapped up! Why let go?!

All of them have been, from Lineham being out of position, to Taufua and Smith scratching their s watching Hull score to rhe shambolic way Dwyer created try whilst falling over to Taylor sitting down with several players on him and causally placing the ball on the ground. Fortunately Smith made a mistake with yhe last FC try as that would be a other embarrassing one ro concede.



Worst attack in SL history, and we are not thinking of changing things. Hell get Gale as player coach, we might have a bit more idea on attack.

Pop Tart will be on shortly to defend the indefensible.

Proctor really stamped his experience on the game didn’t he. More pie and peas needed.

Well that light at the end of the tunnel was quickly extinguished, this maybe why we can no longer see the next corner.

Won't win a game all season.



Leigh must be rubbing their hands together having to play us four times.

For those who did not hear carters interview, he was full of praises for mash and said how great a coach he was, he will not be sacked. The messiah saved the club, he is never wrong

Wilkin spot on there with the comment on us going down, might not necessarily be the worst thing.

He gets stick but he's just nailed it, we are whimpering out of SL.



I'm not put off by the championship. I don't want to be in SL if the last few years and this season in particular is all we've got to look forward to.

It won't be the worst thing for super league, but it would be for the club. Anyone who thinks that demotion is a positive is deluded

Really? For a while now it’s been men against boys, we don’t have the funds to revamp the squad in full.



Would preparing properly, stepping back and making a real go for it in the championship be a worse approach than struggling to post points each week?



A season in the Championship hasn’t gone too badly for the likes for Huddersfield or Hull KR.

I missed it, but going to watch in the morning. Holding judgement until ive heard

As I said...deluded



That you have the sheer arrogance to believe that we can turn this around within a year and bounce back into super league in the year despite P&R being removed shows the delusion those who think relegation is a positive



The reason we don't have the money is because the current owners have seriously mismanaged the club for at least the past three season. Whether this is deliberate or incompetence is up for debate, but they're the only two options we're left with

Sorry KSC, that is not our approach these days.

It's not a positive, but I'm not that d about getting back in SL when we can't compete. I've said before if we end up a Halifax standard club, competing at the top of the championship then I would enjoy that a lot more than being in SL.

What makes you think we could even compete at that standard?



I've been watching championship rugby a bit more this past couple of seasons as I stopped going to Trinity away games, and at best we are bottom half of the championship at present, and would likely lose any of our slightly better players leaving us even worse.



I can see a very real possibility that we drop straight through the championship into championship 1

If prepared and planned for correctly, with the right people running the club, and making the right decisons, it wont be an easy road, buy its not impossible either.



Invest in your youth, believe on them, some shrewd players with experience at that level and you have a competetive squad.



Its a good time to clear dead wood. Think of some players in our squad who could be freed.



Atoni

Proctor

Tafua

Hood



Shall i go on

Have you maybe thought it’s more realism over delusional or arrogant? You don’t think we’re going to turn it round within half a season and stay up do you?

I think you’re spot on with it, no Wakefield fan wants to see us playing long term championship rugby but if that’s what’s required to ensure we can move the dead wood on and rebuild then so be it.

Well what can you say.



I've run out of patience with Proctor. Atoni thank god didn't play.

Smith had some sweful moments.

And to be honest Kelelpi was a bit of a waste of time.



Balanced with some players putting maximum effort in. I really feel for them.

A further observation…..



Still the ‘anyone who disagrees with a single bullet point of my argument is a deluded idiot’ rhetoric…



I’ve always been taught that, when times get tough we pull together… seems the new mantra is, when times get tough, whinge and find a scapegoat!



And call out anyone who offers a scintilla of a contrary position!



The team are in a hole at the moment and some people seem to revel in that misery, using it to further their own agenda. It makes sharing time and discussion with people on here disagreeable … I understand it… from a socio- psychological viewpoint … but it’s unpleasant.
