A tasty looking squad which is more than capable even though there's only 1 halfback in there. Plenty of chances for squad rotation in the game so we'll get to see how they all get on!

Maybe going for an Ackroyd/Jowitt halfback partnership, or maybe Wood slots into SH, Ackroyd SO and Randall plays Hooker. Then try and see which out of that lot works the best, and who plays well in case of injury to Finn/ Miller. Only the first trial game, so plenty of time still.

Props pick themselves & the wingers do, 3 in there as well as 6 back rowers.
i presume they're going to play Hooley at FB at least for the first half then maybe Jowitt slips back there.

Like EB says above, plenty to experiment on during the game and good that some of the younger guys get a chance to show what they can do.

All that sorted in first friendly of the season ! Assistant coach sorted

yeah right, U11's side at a push maybe.

There is nothing wrong with pretending to be the coach on here, it's part of the fun. I love giving my own opinion with great gusto but it always imho. I enjoy those who post like that. Belly is the best even if he does love to play to the gallery. Or eastern who'd have a squad of a hundred given the chance.

It's only annoying when you get those posters who love to make out that they are or were something in the game. They never back it up by saying who they are but they believe they are entitled to spout their beliefs unchallenged. Some even have a little fan club slavishly backing up their sometimes ludicrous conjecture.

I don't enjoy them otherwise it's a free forum so knock yourselves out.

So with ten days till the friendly the game is still being advertised as being played at BV. Has an agreement been made or are we just winging it? Don't wanna turn up on Boxing Day to locked gates.

Our łease runs to 31 December

I'd say let's wreck the joint but who'd notice the difference if we did!

Hope we get to know if its our last game at the old girl

Can leave a bag of prawns on one of the ceiling tiles in cats bar, did that at one of my old employers establishment, was 6 months before they discovered where the smell was coming from

If it is out last game, I'd love the opportunity to get into the ground and take some photos before it's ripped down

And, as I have said just before the last 5 times it has been our supposed last game, I'd like enough turf to redoo my back lawn.

schomozal!!!! season starts in almost 6 weeks - still don't know where we are playing

Only 6 weeks!? Oh !

How will I ever manage to change my "take a train to Wakefield and walk to the ground" plans, if they change the venue with so little time to work out how to get to, say, Dewsbury!?

Doomed, I tell ya! We're all doomed!!!

Living in Australia it won't affect you!

The 564 coach service ,London to Halifax stops at Barnsley and Dewsbury,it only takes thirty minutes.
If you keep your fingers crossed Wakefield might end up playing at Barnsley,that would make things easier for you.

That's impressive, London to Barnsley in 30 mins? Who needs HS2?

The City of Leeds seem quite happy to accept any jobs and business that it might generate.

Back on topic...I'm wanting to purchase tickets for the game online and being a season ticket holder should be able to purchase them at £15 each but on the website they are only coming up at £18


Surely I don't have to go to the shop ??

Yes I did have to go to the shop...been in this morning and got 4

Surprised no-one has put this up yet as it was announced 4 days ago ... https://wakefieldtrinity.com/chester-na ... challenge/ Strong squad that, but clearly resting Grix so likely to be Jowitt and Hooley sharing the full back role ?? Hampshire not listed either, but the squad was announced before he signed, so maybe he will get a run out along with Ackroyd ?? Whino's got a few missing but 1-13 still look fairly strong... https://www.therhinos.co.uk/2017/12/18/ ... enge-test/

Is Jordy not going on loan as we are having a reserve team?

Do keep up I was thinking the same, with only 1 half named in the 20 i wonder if they will throw Ryan in the mix.. Although it all depends how many sessions they have, not much point throwing a half into a team if he has no idea whats going on around him. Do we have anyone still injured? I know TJ has made a full recovery, are there any others we are waiting on?
