The conversation I had with Willie a couple of months ago, when i was doing some work for him, was that he wanted to up the intensity of training, and was advised not to, due to the fear of a 2016 style players revolt.

I heard same from a different sorce, a hell of a mistake getting rid You do not work with the best Coach in S L without picking up a lot of good ideas for the best thing for a team

I can't really add any more to what everyone else has said above...just so totally peed off with the utter garbage that we are producing on the pitch. It is just so depressing being a Trinity fan these days so can't we just swap with Featherstone now rather than have to endure 21 more games of misery ??
I honestly can't see us winning a game all season....has any SL team ever gone a full season without winning a game ??

Smith and Crowther were injured, Bowes just wasn't picked.

Think Halifax won 1 game but were deducted 2 points so finished on zero points.

If Bowes wasn't selected it's a travisity. To switch Kay to Hooker when he was doing a good job at full back and disrupt the whole team plus selecting an unknown loanee a head of him. It sends the wrong signals. Bowes may not be the next Cameron Smith ( the Australian not the Leeds player) but I believe he is a good squad player.

Re: Wakefield v HKR : Sat Mar 25, 2023 3:09 pm  

Mash has had awful luck with injuries to the squad but I saw little team spirit last night and a distinct lack of interest from certain players who I am sure we can all name. Surely we would have been better using the money spent on Langi and Atoni on a quality half back.!

Re: Wakefield v HKR : Sat Mar 25, 2023 3:38 pm  

I think Catalans knew what they were doing releasing Langi and why there wasn’t a massive queue at the door for him. Sadly he looks a shadow of the player he was and he seems to be held together with sticky tape as well these days.

Mind you we’ve a few in that position, Reece Lyne is nowhere near the standard he was a few years ago for instance. And there’s Ashurst who has been one of our best signings in the SL era and is still giving it everything, especially defensively, but it seems the old body is now starting to creak. There are others as well who have gone over the peak of the mountain and are heading down the other side and it’s hitting us hard.
