| This is why I don't comment during games. Today I went through nearly every emotion, but proof of the pudding is in the eating.
Yes we shouldn't have let Leigh out from under boot, but when they escaped we had to dig deep and put them back there. The lads responded and did well!
Deffo need to work on some of the handling and a few silly pens given away which relieved pressure but all in all, we ran out comfortable winners away from home and that's all that matters

| We are sitting comfortably in 6th just behind Wigan, playing some attractive stuff and aiming even higher I'm sure. If people aren't happy with that then they really need to have a serious look at themselves and remember how far we've come since the Million Pound game v Bradford. I know it's a rollercoaster ride every match, lord knows I've had it for 40 odd years but what you get with this team is heart, spirit and togetherness. So I say enjoy every win when it comes along, I always do and be positive, there's more to come from us that's for sure, just imagine what we could do to a team if we can turn it on for 80 minutes.

| Most Trin fans are positive we have to be, this is the best side we've had since 2004. This forum has a few moaners but you only see them when we're losing.

You were doing ok until you reverted to your tactic of trying to bully and niggle. Works on part timers, but in SL you will be danced around, penalised and punished. High time some of the jokers in your side got that into their thick skulls.

We may be sixth, which Im happy with, but how many 80 minute performances have we put together this year.
Other teams dont just play for 30-40 miutes a game week in week out, why us.
Is it fitness, concentration or desire.
Come on put the full effort in, you may get a nice surprise'"
You really need to grow a pair, you strike me as the sort I wouldn't want to be next to in the trenches

| Quote ="Eastern Wildcat"By the way, I wasnt trying to bag the team earlier.
I am not as rose tinted as some and do believe that honesty is the best policy.
It was a great last 20 minutes by us to come back as strong as we did.
We really do need to stop switching off like we do though, if it was once a flood then fair enough, but we do seem to do it every week. To me that suggests there could be issues here which need addressing.
They say you learn from your mistakes, if we do that, and cut this out, then the true potential of this squad could be realised.'"

Some of their supporters posts on this and their own board are not doing them any favours, I love the constant retort of "you obviously wasn't there" purely because someone has a different view.
I hate to use this expression but" they really are sore losers " blaming the ref and so called cheating by one of our players, I think tickles reaction shows he knew exactly what he was doing and as for the other calls the ref supposedly got wrong
So we've now played Leigh at the LSV 2 times and won 2 times and in 4 games we've won 3 times, no wonder they resort to counting supporters rather than watching rugby

Not all of the incidents' then, maybe you'd taken your mouth for a sheeite or maybe you were too busy counting the number of Wakey fans to see everything, get over yourself and stop embarrassing the decent Leigh fans

We are all passionate and care so please don't think that you have a monopoly here, try working on the basis that if I've nothing good to say I'll keep my gob shut and not be negative and get my 2 penneth of criticism in under the guise of an opinion.
You could also add Hull and Wigan as could have/should have won, conversely you could also say we could have/should have lost to Saints, Leigh, and Salford, frustration is part and parcel of being a Wakefield fan you should know that now.

| I know it wasn't great to see a lead like that clawed back but I don't see it as switching off or lack of effort. I'm pretty sure our guys would have preferred a 0-60 final result.
It's simply the ebb and flow of the game and how you handle it.
We started well. They gradually fixed some issues and plated better. We learned how to handle it and played better than they did.
It could easily have been try for try through to 26-26 and then we pull away. No one would have said lack of effort then but it's the same number of tries scored and the same plays.
I'm glad we handled their best and beat them convincingly. That is what happened.

An accurate summing up, in my opinion. So much goes with possession. Repeat sets (either through good kicks, penalties, or errors) are a killer. We (Leigh) rarely create those repeat sets and therefore don't mount serious pressure the way you have done in our two meetings.

| Quote ="kinleycat"Three head injuries/concussion assessments in one game.
Says it all.'"
If I may join in the furore about concussion assessments - we also had a concussion assessment yesterday. We had three at Saints last week, and a fourth player missing yesterday because of a facial injury sustained at Saints. We had 3, or 4 concussion assessments at Salford on Good Friday. (they had a couple too) Are Saints and Salford as 'dirty as us? On the basis of assessments, yes - but I wouldn't dream of suggesting they are 'dirty'.
FWIW, I think Tony Smith has summed it up well. He reckons that the collision nature of our Sport is becoming too high risk, and that something has to be done to reduce that risk. I don't think relegating Leigh (Smith's comments were LAST season when we weren't in SL) or Saints and Salford ( ) will solve the problem!

| Would they happen to be French trenches Vasty. If so we may be ok.
I dont have the monopoly and dont claim to. I know a few fans get frustrated amd enjoyment at the same time with us.
My main point was if we could cut this out or reduce it we would be in an even better position. The league is getting tighter season on season and at some point this could go against us.
At the end of the day though, this is a fans forum to air views ans debate them and we all have a right to speak and have an opinion and especially for those like me who pay a lot of money each year for a season ticket
We won, and in the end comfortably. Lets move on to Dewsbury and MW.

FFS. What is this? The Gestapo? Repeat after me: "you can only post if you are positive" (x3). Who determines what is positive? Is there a positivity scale? People have a right to express any opinion positive/negative.
P.s throwing an offload in our own ten, dropping the ball, not putting the ball dead and conceding another 2 penalties and another try after going 20-0 up is ing dumb and nothing wrong with saying that. But also, know what was great? That the lads stuck in there and had the minerals to grab their and battle back into it when they could have shirked it when Leigh were in front.
Well dome boys.

| It was certainly frustrating. Some of the errors were farcical. If that Drinkwater "try" had been given, and the reaction of the Leigh fans suggests that it was a close call, maybe game over. Did well to come back though and I can't fault them for that. I'll have a disjointed performance and a win any day, as it suggests that when we have a decent performance, we win.
As for Leigh, I can't see them going well. I don't think at any point they built any pressure as everything they got was from an error or penalty. There was no territorial ebb and flow. To play at home against a team playing as dumb as we did at times and concede 40 points should worry them.

I agree. That was as bad as I've seen us play this year. Leigh were pish.
