Depends what stories you hear about Sammut, if Bradford away last season is correct he deserves all he gets |

What's up with Craig Hall?? (apart from the obvious of course!)
Surely we wouldn't want Sammut going to Leigh would we?

I am sad yet you are happy with the state of the club so what does that make you gullible I suppose. I don't know what the 10 years refer to if it is the time I have supported Wakefield you need to multiply that by 4 which to save you getting a calculator out is 40. |

| Quote ="Scarlet Pimpernell"When you make an offer that any player can leave then that's what will happen even if they may not be one you were thinking of or hoping for. It is sometimes better to refrain from commenting after a coach leaves and let his replacement make the decisions.
We are now entering the important part of the season with three centres (4 if you count Ryan) two wingers and two full backs. That is not a lot of cover which makes the recent decision even more stupid.
I know our rose tinted brigade will not see a problem and will consider it a positive but I am afraid the only good part is that we will help our accounts by saving on salaries. We might end up relegated but we will at least have a slightly bigger bank balance.'"
what's that old saying you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink,
I kind of understand where your coming from but we have to have players wanting to stay and battle not just go through the motions, damned if you do damned if you don't |

Yep, I'd rather have a player of less quality but wanted to play for the club than a better one who for whatever reason was wanting out.
Collis, Paea, Sammat(?) And Hall(?). With those four gone it would certainly allows to scope to bring in a few.

Is there any within this article that would be willing to come over to play for the lowly Wildcats in Super League and have a real impact? Centre wise Joey Leilua and prop Siosaia Vave would be great but probably not realistic?

Sandow will be looking for the marquee player pay out so clubs like Salford, Warrington and Leeds may be interested but can't see him coming to Trinity. Trinity lack aggression and real go forward impact type players so need those types rather than another play maker IMHO costing a small fortune.

As I said, could be very similar to Jamie Soward who found himself a free agent mid NRL season and came over to play for lowly London then moved on to a bigger club and a better contract. I doubt very much that in the initial article announcing Sowards release from St George that it suggested somewhere that he'd go play for London, yet that's what he did. |

While I would not for one minute argue with any of your post, I would just point out that lowly London had and probably still do have the spending power to attract such as Soward short term, although I would not rule out a similar move for Sandow I doubt our accountant finding the cash for him, tbh a man with his talent won't have a problem getting a new club in the NRL next season. |

Similar kinds of player. Both can win you a game but both are capable of losing you a game. |

Chris Sandow is available?'"
Hell of a player with the ball in his hand, although defensively he makes Tim Smith look like a tackling machine!!
We must have some space available as Collis was i believe one of our top earners. With him & Paea gone, Sammut apparently close and also Craig Hall rumoured to now be very interested in speaking to a Championship team, we must be able to move for someone. Using out and out guesswork, i would predict atleast £20 to £25k a month in wages saved there?? |

Don`t think Sammut going to Workington free up much cash. There is no way they will be anyway near matching his wages, so will either have make him a one of payment or subsidize his wages.

You know this how exactly, stop talking absolute rubbish. Sammut never wanted to be here, upset everyone whilst he was here and refused to play against Bradford from day one. He's the issue not the club, telling isn't it that Smith who unlike you knows RL instantly shows him the door.
Give over truing to create issues that are not there especially when there are plenty that are. |

Well said vasty. Whilst that game v Bradford was a bad day all round sammut moved out of the way purposely on not one but two occasions opening up a gap for a score. Richard agar even mentioned it in his post match interview without actually naming the player.

I see that Walshaw is out on loan to Dewsbury. We could get him back and see if he is the answer many thought he was.
Part of me looks on this as a sign we made the right decision as he hasn't kicked on even at a lower level, but it is a shame if that's the case as I thought he had potential. Hull away he was breaking for fun but ultimately the lack of the pass meant he was heading for the second row where you are competing with bruising tacklers as well and they are often needed more.

Walshaw has impressed when given the chance. But is behind Pitts Ferguson and Olbison.

Current centre options are Ryan and Arundel, there is a place for Walshaw right there.

Personally I would much rather see us going after another keinhorst type player, a good centre at a good club only not playing because there are very good players ahead of them.
Walshaw is no particular improvement on Ryan IMO. Having said that, if we were looking to replace Ryan then Walshaw would be a fair call. But not as a replacement for Collis.

Notice Luke George has been playing in Oz for Northern Pride. Not many players who don't improve after a stint in Australia and George was already better than Lyne or Arundal and still only 26.
