The conversation I had with Willie a couple of months ago, when i was doing some work for him, was that he wanted to up the intensity of training, and was advised not to, due to the fear of a 2016 style players revolt.

I’ve seen Lewis do that on tv before. He’s minutes from death until the other bloke is binned then he jumps up like Del Boy out of the wheelchair “I must admit there is some feeling coming back”!

He probably would say that?

Probably an element of handbags in it, but my info came from a former 1st team player, in great depth.

It is what it is now I guess.

So, what is Bretherton doing these days?

Going to every home and away game as a supporter and feeling totally upset at seeing how the team is performing.

He’s fine hopefully, dangerous crusher tackle penalised appropriately.

Well the bloke who did it had already given away two needless penalties prior to that. he is a lone player and if he gets a ban, he won't be missed after what I saw last night

I meant more in the administrative side of RL somewhere.

Come on Eastern. You are better than that.

So he's the saviour and watching home and away but isn't getting involved?

I'm sure he's a great guy. I'm just pointing out that Scarlet's original post was just random trolling based on nothing but a desire to put Carter or the club down.

Changing his name to Brereton.

God's honest truth. Also look at the coaching set ups he has seen as a player and on coaching teams, between leaving Wakefield as a player in 2001, and coming back in the coaching set up nearly 20 years later.

We're so far behind others at this level, and not just financially. Like it or not, our time has ran out.

Just out of interest does anyone know why Morgan Smith, Jordy Crowther and Harry Bowes weren't Playing last night?

Were injured against Salford ,

I heard same from a different sorce, a hell of a mistake getting rid You do not work with the best Coach in S L without picking up a lot of good ideas for the best thing for a team

I can't really add any more to what everyone else has said above...just so totally peed off with the utter garbage that we are producing on the pitch. It is just so depressing being a Trinity fan these days so can't we just swap with Featherstone now rather than have to endure 21 more games of misery ??
I honestly can't see us winning a game all season....has any SL team ever gone a full season without winning a game ??

Smith and crowther injured not sure on bowes as he was 18th man

Smith and Crowther were injured, Bowes just wasn't picked.

Think Halifax won 1 game but were deducted 2 points so finished on zero points.

If Bowes wasn't selected it's a travisity. To switch Kay to Hooker when he was doing a good job at full back and disrupt the whole team plus selecting an unknown loanee a head of him. It sends the wrong signals. Bowes may not be the next Cameron Smith ( the Australian not the Leeds player) but I believe he is a good squad player.

Mash has had awful luck with injuries to the squad but I saw little team spirit last night and a distinct lack of interest from certain players who I am sure we can all name. Surely we would have been better using the money spent on Langi and Atoni on a quality half back.!

I think Catalans knew what they were doing releasing Langi and why there wasn’t a massive queue at the door for him. Sadly he looks a shadow of the player he was and he seems to be held together with sticky tape as well these days.

Mind you we’ve a few in that position, Reece Lyne is nowhere near the standard he was a few years ago for instance. And there’s Ashurst who has been one of our best signings in the SL era and is still giving it everything, especially defensively, but it seems the old body is now starting to creak. There are others as well who have gone over the peak of the mountain and are heading down the other side and it’s hitting us hard.

Going on the name quoted at the start of the accusation by Scarlet. Just wondered if the guy was involved in RL elsewhere since he left us. This is all I could find (now I've been corrected on the surname)

Agree entirely with your last 2 posts Hopwood,and also with your last post Sacred Cow.

Sadly, we've had a relaxed training ethic for some time now, compared to other clubs.

We're playing a professional sport with a part time mentality, and until that trend stops, we're always going to be behind the 8 ball.
