The forgotten (re arranged ) fixture.

Trinity's busted squad take on the "might" of Huddersfield Giants at the John Smiths stadium
Huddersfield with close to a full strength squad against Trinity's second string, with one or two notable exceptions.

This one is going to be real close, possibly golden time.

Trinity want to maintain their push for a play off spot, and a loss for Huddersfield will start to make them very nervous about the second half of the season.

Come on Trin !

Wakey by 10+

No way. This will be close.

Hudds by 18

Could go either way I suppose it depends which hudds turn up and even tho your side is a 2nd string pretty much it’s still a quality side

Hudds by 16+

Just heard that Ikahaifo is out injured, that could level it up a bit, but I still think Hudds may have slightly too much for Trinity. A close game, but Hudds by <6 points

had to laugh at the close to full strength comment!

fishing

True but if you don't win this on your own turf it won't be funny, you should win this by 12 - 16pts but hell who knows

By what logic? We're missing some of our top earners and are in poor form. It's too close to call imo

Wakefield are clearly the best team in Yorkshire and should have little trouble in seeing off a poor side in Huddersfield.

I never said you weren’t hit by injuries. My ‘logic’ is that the only advantage either team has is home advantage, this game is at Huddersfield isn’t it?

Good call, we might stand a chance now against what is nearly a full strength shudds side

Wakefield should have won by at least 30 one of the worst giants performances in a long time although we should have a penalty in the last 2 minutes

Can't get any closer than 1 point.

It was always gonna be a tight one
Both did their level best to not win the game, Wakey failed in that respect...


I'm gonna call that a bonus win considering the circumstances.

Well you did call it, bet you're gutted though.

Another gutsy win, another two points.

I agree Joe, the first half defensive performance from Hudds was amongst the worst I have seen, Had Wakefield shown some composure and been a little more clinical then in reality it should have been won at half time.

Thought Hudds panicked on our line and didn’t look like scoring outside of that 20 minutes spell in the second half. Another very close game in the end though which I am happy that we came out on the right side of.

We were pathetic , some of the players on the pitch last wouldn’t make it into a league one side, you guys played half decent game apart from kershaw who is one the most over confident players I’ve ever seen and was pretty awful on defence from what saw

Good win for Wakefield that

be interested to know the win/lose percentage of games when james child refs huddersfield... seems to have some vendetta

Funny thats what you were accusing us of claiming we were picked on in every game a few weeks back. So now he has a vendetta against two clubs, but a bit more against you, dear lord.



NB: Penalty count was 7 Hudds -5 Trinity, is that really a vendetta?

dont know what you are on about with me accusing you of things.

33 mins before he gave giants a penalty.

sin binned taai... after one high tackle...is that really a sin bin? basically a sending off as it was in the 69th minute.

then couldnt wait to give the wildcats a penalty which won the game at the death.

mcintosh and child put the 2 points on a plate for you really lastnight

Yep, it's common knowledge James is a life long Wakefield fan, he looked absolutely joyous when he penalised the Barracudas near the end & it was nothing to do with them being offside.

Great stuff, but recently Ben Thaler officiated a game @ the LSV v Barrow and dished out 28 penalties and ruined folks entertainment. No one is condoning foul play,but it was stop start the whole way through. I think BT is better than that but wtf,it should've been better dealt with by a top SL ref.
