Squad for Sunday

Sadly so is Lyne

Other than that pretty much as expected

Agar did not speak too highly of Walshaw the other week, so we'll see how he goes.

Its a big ask.

......was this in public?

......is it a wise thng to do?

.....shouldn't this be kept between the coach & player?

Another one on his back

I too have followed Agar's tea leaves reading and got this:

FB - . Ben COCKAYNE- played there before and needs must
Wi Peter FOX- ????
Ce Dean COLLIS- Could do to support his winger
CE - Lucas WALSHAW- Not the team you want to be playing to get some experience.
Wi -Lee SMITH- Try too much at FB or SO
SO- Richard MATHERS - Mature and talks a good game, can he orchestra one???
SH - Matty WILDIE 'Will gain some experience'
Pr. Justin POORE- Needs to be on his best behaviour even when a sly e winds him up
Hr Kyle WOOD - covered there with PA but not sure if he's started there.
Pr10. Andy RALEIGH- Some say 'not fully ready' but ...
SR -Danny KIRMOND (c)
SR - Frankie MARIANO - An opportunity to sink or shine
SF- Danny WASHBROOK- With no PA he's going to be busy.


Subs
Kyle AMOR- Trundle and make some yards.
Chris ANNAKIN as above
Taulima TAUTAI- Had a week more to get to grips with the way things 'work' at Trin
Vince MELLARS- Cover for backs if required- also a shine or be shipped out player

Reece LYNE- Work in progress
Oliver Wilks - Rested

How come RA has named a player in the squad who had apparently left the club earlier in the week?

That was the info given to me from a good source. I did say it was 100% though!

'Apparently' being the operative word.

Indeed!

Wigan at home and we get Alibertusgarlicus, jeez we've had it.

He's signed, if its this season or next i don't know.

He's deffo signed for Hudds for next season. That is fact. I had heard he wouldn't play for us again but that
seems incorrect now.

Poore was in the squad for Widnes but he was not playing so i don't hold too much into him being in the 19, anyway we'll see.

I hope he gets a chance on sunday tbh.

Agar just won't learn with Lyne will he? Will be pushed aside again

Another one on his back.

Yes it was in the public domain

My team would be

Mathers
Fox
Collis
Mellors
Cockaine
L Smith
Wood
Poore
Washbrook
Kirmond
TautaI
Annakin

Subs
Wilde
Amor
Mariano
Wilkes


Missing out Walshaw
hopefully missing never seen again Lyne

I'd like to think we'd start with 13 rather than 12!

Missed out Raleigh at prop.!!

Poor defence anda lack of creativity have been very evident in the last few weeks. Now without Aitons tackling and Tim Smith/Lauatiti to create a few openings its likely to be a long afternoon.

For me I think I'd drop Raleigh doesn't seem fit at all.. But this will most likely be the side:

1. Mathers
2. Fox
3. Collis
4. Lyne
5. Cockayne
6. Wood
7. L Smith
8. Poore
9. Wildie
10. Raleigh
11. Annakin
12. Kirmond
13. Washbrook

14. Amor
15. Mariano
16. Tauti
17. Mellars

Frankie Mariano's just scored a try for fev ... Will he be playing tomorrow as well?

With Mario having played for Fev, swap Walshaw for Mario and Wood at 7, with L.Smith at 6 and then cross everything and hope that we can keep them below 50.
We are going to need one hell of a kicking game as line breaks will be at a premium.

Not a case of being on his back. Gotta say it how it is...not Super League Standard. I'm not paying for my season ticket to watch players being picked who are miles off the mark. He would have to gain about 3 stones of muscle and an ability to tackle and defend to get close to one, and I don't see that happening any time soon. Mark my words, Wigan will take half a dozen tries through him, if they have any sense, which evidence would sy they do.

Jesus what kind of a club are we? We name him in the squad and he plays for the loan club the day before. I give up.

Taken from Featherstones forum....

[iAt the AGM last night we were told that Frankie could only be called back to Wakefield for Challenge Cup games, so as that now as gone out of the window, he's with us till end of season!!![/i
