Cop out of an answer, hey ho!

We’ve got a huge front row rotation, athletic back row, two good organisers at Half Back and pace across the three quarters complimented by an experienced Full Back.

I also pointed out some of our major flaws so no suggestion that we are unbeatable. As for not matching us for size, that’s based on this game and who’s in HKRs squad right now, it’s not aimed at every RL team.

I’m not sure how else anyone could describe the Wakefield team other than how I did

Why is it a cop out and why the snide remark. I'll be delighted if you're right, my appraisal of our team is just a little more modest than yours. Can't anyone have an opinion that differs from yours. Jeez I thought I was an ar*e at times but you're something else.

Don't worry.At least you support the same team.We are infested with smug FC fans and weird FC fans pretending to be Rovers fans.Go figure?

his opening post was as if we should not bother turning up, and grand final awaits you, whilst wakey have made good progress over the last few years, including some very astute recruitment , theres still more work to do before you order your tins of brasso

Hey you were the one who made comment on my post fella, not the other way around.
Where did I suggest you can’t have an opinion, all I asked for was a bit of qualification but as is often the case you seem happy to criticise but can’t back it up. The remark wasn’t snide either, it’s right there for you to read and it was nothing more than a typographical shrug of the shoulders after you decided not to give a proper answer.

Nowerdays I post on RLFans about half a dozen times a month so when it comes to being an booty I don’t pass enough comments to qualify.

I’ll could take an educated guess on who’d be the booty between the two of us but let’s go to the VT and put it to the vote eh?

I didn’t really say that though did I, the only area I suggested that you can’t compete is on size in the front row. Sometimes the best way to beat a big pack is to go with a smaller faster pack that has players with good footwork and thats all I suggested.

Well an interesting first 2 game.Didnt expect leeds to win pre game but they deserved it.The new Warry half looked like a tubby hooker?Masila was quieter than iv ever seen him but on paper they look good.Thought the new coach had the look of Raymond off the old American sitcom? Thought/hoped Hull may lose but obviously not. Bad night on the betting

I think we have a better 1,6,7 and 9 than them. However our defence is the key as it will be all year.
Wish Trinity well but big clubs were poor last year..Wigan ,saints, wire so 5th flatters them.
One thing is sure. Sheen 's team will be better prepared than Chester's

Re: Wakey at Home : Thu Feb 01, 2018 11:56 pm  

McGuire yes but Atkins/Marsh?Did you watch the pre season show? Fifita and Pauli looked like wrestlers plus plenty of bulk to back them up.Not looking forward to the Well tmz as bloody freezing but hoping for a morale boosting win.Called both games wrong tonight so we will see?

Re: Wakey at Home : Fri Feb 02, 2018 7:59 am  

You'll get steamrollered by their big pack. miller and finn will have a field day off the back of their go forward and their outside backs will run you ragged. wakey by at least 20

We will see who is better prepared after tonight, i don`t know anything for sure to be honest and neither do you.

Regarding your "Big clubs had a poor year last year" a lot have been saying that about Cas over past 3 or 4 years, until last season.

There is no chance i would have McGuire over Miller, and Grix was consistently one of the best FBs in SL last season IMO.
