I personally thought we would win tonight and was dissappointed to be at work so i couldnt attend.after watching the game on sky go i must admit i feel really deflated tonight even worse than the cas game.tonight there did look to be effort and thats why cos if im to be honest we simply are not good enough and it really hurts to say i cant see how we stay up toulose will pick up some wins esp at home.cant see where we are going to win at this present time

I agree.l, the effort is clearly there, we are simply not good enough 8-13. It’s that simple

| Before season started we all new our pack was not up to sl standard writing was on wall against fev and fax. Basically we lost tonight for one reason alone the fact that we spent most of the game playing out of our own twenty. Our pack is too old too small full of triers

Yes I think it’s nail on head 8-13.
Though that said I do think Whitbread put in a stint. He’s not flashy but he makes a solid 10 and puts himself about a lot especially in defence.

| Basically when we got ball in their twenty we were driven pack and virtually every set they were going length of field . When we received we generally made no ground on first 3 tackles

| That was dire. Our go forward was non-existant, the creativity amounted to sling it wide and hope for the best and the hooking position is a major problem. Sorry but Kay tries hard in that position and has a half decent scoot but his distribution just doesn’t have that snap required and his tackling in the middle of the field lacks bite. And the less said about some of our discipline the better. We had everything in our favour going into this and yet all Huddersfield had to do was the basics to beat us. Fair play to them they deserved the two points but we are in a deep hole right now.

| Home form not good enough. My lad hit the nail on the head by saying Hudds played the ref like a fiddle slowing our game down well done to them tactics spot on. We hardly moved off our line to meet them resulting in Hudds making far more yards. As said our pack is getting mullered every game. Big games coming up so let's see what they have to offer us

I genuinely think this Wakefield team has much more things to worry about than a promising 19 year old winger making a couple of errors tonight, he does a lot more good than bad! The fact we struggled to get out of our 30 for 75% of the game is the major concern. Their team was littered with young forwards dominating our first string pack. Genuinely really worried after watching that, I’ve never seen a Wakefield forward pack look so weak in my time of watching. All the players are clearly giving 100% but it’s simply not good enough, we need more quality adding or we are in a dog fight at the bottom ....... again.

I agree. I thought he had a good game. I didn't even notice his mistake as Tom made far more and they were significant.

Completely agree…worrying times. Something urgently needs to be done.

| I have Covid so couldn’t go. Sky commentators said at least three times that the May 3rd transfer window has some relevance. I don’t think there is much space left for one but that may be the final nail in the head when chip shop rumours start.
We were shiiiiite in many areas again.

Well that’s it. Our pack as it stands wouldn’t even be the best in the championship, so how are we supposed to compete and lay platforms in SL. The club have completely got it wrong with recruitment, I’m sorry but they have. Getting rid of both Woods and replacing with Hood and Kay is clearly, we are getting mullered around the ruck every game by half decent hookers. Bringing in Gaskell when we have Brad Walker rotting in the reserves, absolute joke. Whitbread is doing ok, but we need an enforcing forward to compliment Fifita, as all the opposition defence does is swarm on him as he’s our only go to forward.

Nothing can be done, there are no players on the market who can change things, we have no money even if there was. Whilst the pack was well beaten we still has enough field position to win that game. Re Murphy, its pretty harsh labelling his tackle as an error. It was a well timed dominant tackle that should not have been given as a penalty.
Just seen on the other thread that the win takes Huddersfield to forth. The speaks volumes about the quality of Super League at the moment.

| Wow it is a pick on Murphy day .Murphy went well and does not look out of place on the other wing The penalty for the tackle was a joke .Go as far to say that he out played T J Jowit had a good game at fullback .The problem is the pack in fact go as far as to say the reason why J C does not look out of place is down to playing in a old slow pack as much as J C improving . Thought the team over all played well . But as far as the pack is concerned that as been brought about by not strengthening over the last 3 years .Not a lot W Poaching can do about it.He as been left with the players of the last 3 year And the players the other Coach brough in to strengthen the team this year are a joke

| I know the forwards aren’t providing a platform for the backs, but for a supposedly England international, Reece The Crab Lyne needs to run forward more than he does sideways, poor display from him again tonight, that second half he ran sideways halfway across field and threw the ball three yards forward onto the ground, not a pretty sight, as for the penalty against Murphy for the alleged tip tackle, that really was a joke decision by the ref, sorry PT, but nothing will convince me otherwise that most of these Refs, are biased.

Murphy was superb.
He in my opinion is our form winger.
TJ has been fantastic but I think his time at Trinity is coming to a natural conclusion which is best for both parties. He is sadly a diminishing asset whilst Murphy is on the rise.

Maybe the injuries are catching up with him, but he just didn't look himself today. There were a few times in the second half where previously he would've backed himself to go for the line but he checked his run. We still don't use him as we should. Many a time he was stood in open space but the ball was either too slow to get to him or it never made it there. Same with Murphy on the other wing. Ultimately we are just too slow in defence and attack which are the fine margins that could turn a loss like tonight into win.

| Thought Murphy and Jowitt were our best two tonight personally.
I keep seeing people saying Murphy’s tackle wasn’t a penalty. I’m afraid as of this year you’re wrong, it is. The directive is if the legs go above the horizontal it is a penalty and thats what happened. It wasn’t by that much, and whether it was actually ‘dangerous’ is another matter but they are the rules as they stand, whether you like them or not. Technically it was the correct call even though for me it was just a hard, dominant tackle, them’s now the rules people. At the start of the season he’d have likely got sin binned for it so at least that has ended.
If anybody wants a pop at a penalty giver how about targeting the messiah Fifita. The one he gave away by nudging into the guy playing the ball was as dumb as they come and cost us big time.

Don't think it cost us at all, it was on the first tackle and gave us chance to get set. We were just too weak to keep them out. Probably stupid nonetheless

| For a start not having ago at murphy he has said has a fantastic future and took his try well but the intial point 2 trys came from where he has gifted them possession in a way the tip tackle was a penalty all day long legs above horizontal and the secind he disnt stand to play the ball and hes been pinged as previous stated he is still on a learning curve but peeps on here moan about errors costing us trys and technically they where errors and he is no way been blamed by me for defeat and yes with ball in hand he was probally the best tonight.
As for tommy i got the impression thats a guy who didnt want to get hurt weather thata cos of all the injuries or to protect a move who knows if he does think it will benifit both parties as he will be on good money which can be used elsewhere should we manage to stay up and yes we do have ideal replacement in murphy.
On a much more positive note when we next ko in toulouse ill be in sin city so it wont dampen my day like tonight has

I’m not comfortable with either call on Murphy.
I can kind of understand both but I’m not comfortable.
The tackle was fantastic. In my opinion Lutelli, who is a world class centre, understands he had been dominated and twists to find his front whilst on the air.
For a long time I’ve said whilst the impetus is on the defender to look after the ball carrier, the ball carrier has to look after themselves too.
There were tons of scruffy post there balls all night. In fact I’ve not seen as poorly reffed rucks in a long time. I’m watching it back now and there are hands and hips and elbows all over the player playing the ball from both sides all night.
Ref only seemed interested though when Murphy and Fafita got it wrong on the lead up to the second try.

Weather there correct calls or not and for me it was a pen his feet went above horizontal and the 2nd seen them given and not given but there are 2 incidents where hudds having the ball could of been avoided thats all.but we could say that most weeks.with regards murphy and hall there the best things to come out of this season thus far and if billy was fit right now it would be lynne he replaced but i dont think the backline is the issue
