Think Rourke as Sub ,was in case Trueman ,had to come of because of back injury  so Max could go to 6 ,If I am right do not like the decision ,

Hindsight's a wonderful thing. If Trueman or any of our other backs pulled up, Rourke would have come on and we'd all be saying what a masterstroke that was. Got no issue with it myself. When we've had another back rower in that 17 slot, they often only come on and play a handful of minutes anyway. It's like buying travel insurance, not having an accident and being gutted you paid for the insurance.


Trueman had a steady game by his standards, but was still good. I understand why you're frustrated about his game time alegend - so am I - but to say he didn't take the line on isn't accurate. When Liam Finn joined us from Cas it turned a sporadic attack into a very good structured attack that spotted opportunities and took advantage of them, which is what Trueman does too. You seem to be obsessed with speed, but not particularly bothered about edge organisation, pass selection, game management and everything else halves do. Much like your obsession with Harvey Smith - he's going to be one hell of a player, but he loses almost every first contact he's involved in, and his speed doesn't make up for that. Powell knows that, which is why he comes on and off when he does.


The speed of our spine over the first 10m is absolutely not why we're losing these big games. Our defensive line speed is slower that the opposition's, first contact players aren't sticking, our PTB speed is slower, our kick detail isn't as accurate, and we're so low on front rowers that McMeeken and Pitts are playing nearly 80 minutes every week.


Yesterday was frustrating, but only because at times we do look like a top 6 team. I'm still loving being back at the top table with good crowds, and we're great to watch and competing every week. And perhaps most importantly, next season we'll be better and we'll ice these games. And 2027 we'll be even better than that. Never been able to say that as a Trinity fan.

Some very odd takes on blaming the officals from the wildcats faithful. I thought Wakefield ahd the rub of the green with certain moments which lead to trys E.g Russell kicing the ball out of Nui's hands but the wildcat faithful with forget this. I thought Ref was fair not his greatest game as both teams had a few rough calls.

Wakefield are a great team this season and will be well in the mix for top 6 this season. Imo the best team won the game.

McMeeken was awesome against us

Ref decisions went both ways. It's just how it is.

Armstrong was good for the Centurions
