Has all the excitement gone before we've even played in front of fans?
Just turned up to join the queue for Huddersfield tickets and there is no queue at all. Walked straight in, got my ticket and walked back out again in 2 minutes.

I think most people are focused on the game tomorrow. More tickets will sell after the game.

I think the experience of this weeks game has shown people that there is plenty of time to purchase a ticket. Shudds away fans are no threat either.

That’s true, they have never travelled well. There’ll be time to pick up tickets.

They only went on sale an hour ago!

Yes I tried to buy mine the other day and they had not been released yet.
Will call in on Monday to get mine hopefully having been inspired by a win tomorrow.
Well done to the club for securing an academy place but have to feel sorry for Cas.
If there is ever a rugby town its Cas and I don't understand RFL denying such a hotbed a place.
The RFL really need to support the amateur community clubs to keep the youngsters from drifting away from the game.

Bradford is the one for me. Their academy has been consistently excellent at bringing through young players even through their money troubles and to this day their first team squad has plenty of home grown talent in it. Ebon Scurr for example has most of superleague chasing him. When you think of the Burgesses, Bateman, Whitehead, Trueman, Bentley, all either recent full international or now knocking on the door plus other good standard guys like O’Brien, Wardle, Mellor etc then thats one decision i can’t get my head around.

Good points Sacred.
Who makes these decisions at the RFL.
What happens next to those academies not in the elite?
Are there plans for the next tier down to keep all these kids playing?

Cas haven't brought an academy player through to their first team since Adam Milner...in 2011.

Their academy is a shambles on that metric.

And he’s a Wakefield lad. They’d have no sympathy for us, I’m just happy for us it’s massive for us.

Up the Trin

I made a point elsewhere - Trinity are far from flavour of the month with the RFL.

In a straight choice between Wakey and Cas for an academy spot - just how bad must the Cas application/academy actually be??

Our academy is excellent - theirs is a shambles.

Any body no what day the Huddersfield game is, trying to work thing round it appreciate help

Sunday old boy

I got told this afternoon that Season Ticket holders who registered for todays game don't need to do so for future games, just turn up with your ticket and you'll get in ??
I don't know if anyone can confirm this ??

I don't know but I can't imagine that's true.
They can sell more tickets if ST don't go.

Makes sense. No reason to keep telling them unless you didn't respond initially. I think they must allocate a space for all season ticket holders.

Though it was a decent crowd considering the crowd limits in place ,even the HKR fans I was stood beside were in fine voice ,especially the guy slugging from a bottle of jack daniels , until caught by the stewards . Watched many a wakey game over the years with fewer people in attendance ,and thought it a good and positive first attendance for us and a good start to build on

Certainly no need to re book if you were at the KR game and it's worth remembering that ST holders have already paid for their ticket, with many not seeking refund for last seasons messed up schedule.

The issue may arise for those ST holders that didn't book a spot for the KR game ?

Also, I noticed that a number of Rhinos fans had pints of beer on the terraces yesterday, which I understood wasn't permitted

At a time when revenue is so tight, the club should find out just how they (Leeds) managed it ?

Also noticed that hardly any Whino's fans were wearing face coverings either....is it compulsory or not ???

It should be compulsory for Whino fans irrespective of any pandemic - anything to lower the volume of their whinging

How else are they supposed to shout “forward” clearly

I noticed that too but politely didn't post the info as I know Wilzay is our Mask Monitor.

Forgot to ask did you finally manage to get Abdull’s autograph yesterday?

It was attached to the ball used for that restart he put into the North Stand. Social distancing and all that coming into play.

I see KIrklees (incl. Huddersfield) is on the list of places struggling with the Indian Variant and that people are being advised to not travel into these hotspots. Does that advice cover the inhabitants not coming out?

Don't try and get round swear filter it's there for a reason.... Poptart
