If it was the other way round I’m sure plenty would think it would enhance our chances!

Like last week...it looks a close contest, though Huddersfield fans on their Facebook page seem really confident that their squad is miles stronger than ours...they also have home advantage that should just swing it their way.

The bookies have them between 2/5 and 1/3 to win outright and are giving us 8 points start on the handicap...

It’s a real 50/50 for me...CC seemed a lot more positive in his presser to me and have a good feeling this week...

Woodford has left with immediate effect just of run out of lemons

From our point of view it's a pity Sezer hasn't followed him. That guy will be pulling all the strings and showing our half backs how it's done.
That last minute chip and gather over the top v Leeds nearly snatched a win v Leeds last week.

Seems a bit harsh IMO.

They’ve had to stand down 3 players due to covid track and trace. Maybe Sezer is one.

Anyone know if there is commentary on this game anywhere so I can listen while working??

BBC Radio Dirty Leeds & Rhubarb Radio mate.

Why depress yourself even further?

Not been on the Our League site before, when do they start the build up to KO on games, that’s if there is any so I can get the code sorted. Sooner better than later for a dinosaur like me

Then you put Kay on the right and BJB on the left, just saying!

1. Hampshire
2. BJB
3. Lyne
4. Tupou
5. Kay
6. Bailey
7. Jowitt

Well I've either been wrong about the numbers all my life or you are incorrect.

TJ wears 2 and is on the left.
BJB has always played right and his number is 5.
Neil Fox wore 3 on the left
Andy Fletcher never played anywhere but left and wore 2.

You read the back line left to right on the field looking at them from full back view.

I'll try and put comments on here as I watch but I'm assuming they'll have the Twitter feed going as normal.

I've watched some of the early Challenge Cup games on there and it's been very, very basic coverage.
Dont know if the SL games will be any different but, expect that it will start and stop quite suddenly.

Seem to remember watching Siddal in the cup and at ht, it just left a view of their pitch, no talk or anything.

The game does show up as happening but, I wouldn't expect too much before 3.0 and then cross your fingers

Any chance you could go Facebook Live and stream the screen from your phone?

Wonder why we've done that. To be honest shirt numbers don't mean that much these days, our wingers usually have the number 30 or upwards on their back

Well that is indeed good evidence to prove me wrong.
All I can say is it isn't just Wakefield. Every team I've ever seen play have 2 as the left and 5 as the right. Even before squad numbers this was the case.

I might put it on a new thread so we can see if anyone has any other examples.

You actually read the opposition line up as though you were facing them from the other end of the pitch

1
2 3 4 5
6 7
8 9 10
11 12
13

^ ^ ^

Using The Avenger's format, here is todays squad (I think)

1) Full Back - Jowitt
(2) Right Wing - Bish
(3) Right Centre - Lyne
(4) Left Centre - Tupou
(5) Left Wing - Kay
(6) Stand-off - Bailey
(7) Scrum Half - Rocky

Forwards
(icon_cool.gif Prop - Battye
(9) Hooker - J Wood
(10) Front Row Forward - Koppy
(11) Second Row Forward - Pitts
(12) Second Row Forward - Tanginoa
(13) Loose Forward - Westy

Subs
K Wood
Crowther
Lettuce
Gigot

Some mad selection only going with 2 forwards on bench and only 1 prop looks like kelpi be spending some game time at prop also wouldnt of played baily this week

I hope that bench is forced.

Two ways of looking at Baileys selection

He’s likely to be up against Oliver Russell who’s similarly at the same age and development as Bailey himself so possibly a chance for Connor to show a bit more.
or
With Huddersfield still being depleted and playing a young half, should Trinity leave Bailey out and go with an experienced half who might get on top of Russell

I like the team actually.
A lot on Bailey but this is a good game for him to shine.

Why would Kelepi be spending time at prop when there’s no 2nd rowers on bench?

Westerman will probably do a stint there like last week where he was very effective in getting plenty of second phase from offloads...it’s a brave call, especially with Battye playing his first game in months...hope we don’t lose a forward early or we’ll be up against it!
