Got to be one of the most embarrassing threads I've ever seen posted on a forum...

Who on earth could have played last week? We were down to the bare bones already which is why Moules played! We were down to our last fit players today, so much so we had to name two injured players in the 19...had someone had to pull out the young kid (Senior is it?) would have had to play....

The lads gave their all today but were soundly beaten by a top quality side who turned up on the day with a fully fit squad and probably wanting to right a few wrongs from last season...after the early knock on leading to our opening try I can't remember them making a mistake until the back end where it got a bit scrappy...just too good for us....the final will be played by the best two teams in the competition...

We can hold our heads high...though Walton (other than freezing on the break) and Crowther were outstanding.....fans absolute class!

leedscat has an uncanny knack of putting his foot in his mouth, then when he gets a bit of criticism for his 'knowledge', he has his safety net by offering people out! Classy!
Wire are a club that play beautiful but are liable to have a blip.
We got them in the league but not today.
If we had lost in the league but won today and been in the middle 8s, would we have survived?
It's called perspective.

it wasnt your day today but keep believing..you av a top guy in chester..your fans today were a credit to the wakefield club just reading some of the comments from your fans after the match a very nice touch...just hope it doesnt dis-hearten the club for the 8s comp..

Please read the AUP. Threats of violence are NOT permitted on here.

Either name us which players should have played or stop embarrassing yourself Tommy ten men...

Glad on here Walton has had a bit of credit.

He had brain freeze yes and if all players were fit probably wouldnt have played but he is a very commited player and puts 100% into every carry and tackle. Did you see some of the hits he was putting in during the warm up

Call him that to his face then.

The op sounds like one of our fans!

Cringey stuff, you were well beaten today by a well organised and far better side, but no disgrace considering where you were last year, you've proved everyone wrong except, it seems, one or two kneejerking fans if your own!
See you next year!

Walton was great today, ran hard and put his body on the line. Special mentions aswell for Crowther, who put some real good shots on in defence and Yates who carried the ball strongly IMHO.

All three you would class as squad players at the moment and it's good to see them taking their chance when played.

Chester has done wonders this year and I won't hear a word against him. Maybe he made with hindsight one mistake today in playing Kirmond, who he must have felt was a gamble as he came off the bench at 37 mins but to be fair he has had his squad decimated in 3 weeks. Several out, several played not fully fit and Scotty Moore was for me below par, probably because of his lack of game time during the RFL vendetta against him. Leave Chester alone!!

Anyone having a go at Chester for today needs to give their head a shake.

Couldn't agree more

Chester has done wonders, even if our defence since magic has gone a little soft.

I'm glad someone picked up on Scott Moore, I lost count how many times he gave away needless penalties on the last. Bordering on criminal.

Twice

Moore does have to sort out his 'ruck management ' he's just giving lazy penalties away.

No blame whatsoever with Chester.

Would have loved to rest Sio and Ashurst but injuries stopped that from happening.

The two in the 19 man squad that dodnt play. He said Anderson may play if jabbed up and Tupou had hamstring tear. Realistically these were never going to play. There wasnt really anyone else who could.

If any criticism we shouldnt have loaned anyone out but could this have been a financial decision so we could bring in Fitifa

The OP is either drunk, or unable to manage his emotions after a heavy defeat; CC has worked wonders with our rag-tag squad this season and deserves credit for what he's achieved. Tough defeat today, but with 14 players out and forced to play injured players, whilst Wire were at full strength and playing red hot - it was almost inevitable. Unlike a lot of the fans of other clubs making y comments on social media - we were actually in a CC semi final, whilst safe in the top 8. Who predicted that?

So bog off leedscat - you're in a minority of one.

Great thread guys!?

Rested players last week he says.. Who could we rest I says.... wasn't going to happen when we are down to the bare bones was it we are a busted side at the moment that showed last week in the last 25 - 30 mins. We had to play with some players who were not fit and others who are squad players because we are down to the bare bones and came up against a class Wire side.. I did not think Chester was the man for the job when he was appointed but did say if the players bought into the style of play he got KR playing the we would see some nice flowing rugby. The players have done that and Chester has brought us on by a massive amount and has brought self belief among the players. You could have any coach you like but they would have had the same problem when you have a limited amount of your squad available. You also have to recognise class and that's what Wire were but do you know what this season has been an absolute joy after last season

A really top notch, well argued thread leedscat. I mean seriously naming guys like Owen who have been injured for weeks with a pot on his leg and on about playing our under 19 team side against men last week.

leedscat - WTID (when we win) Like a petulant child (when we lose)
