Will there be a fixture next week or does it all stop for the Challenge Cup??

Nailed on first game will be V Leigh

Spot on. I said this to friends and family at the weekend the RFL are so transparent.

The semi-final this weekend could be crucial. Wembley could be a huge distraction for Hull KR.

I reckon we'll have the toughest time because the Championship clubs will raise their game for us, suspecting that we are the weakest (well, not suspecting; knowing).

The table doesn't lie. We have been the weakest team by a mile and after last week I would have said there was little chance of us winning more than one or two games in the middle eight. Yesterday the team seemed to have the ability to dig in and not give up. Ok there were mistakes but a much better team effort was on display. Not been to many games this year where almost all the Wakey fans didn't move until the players were leaving the field.

On the Leigh board someone says the fixtures have been leaked and we are away to Salford first on sky

The timing of the fixtures should have been set in stone at the start of the season.Playing HKR after the semi or either side of a potential final could be crucial.
This would remove any accusations of fixture manipulation 'for the greater good'.
But that wouldn't be RL now would it.

If true the positives are that Sheens won't have long to sort them out and we might get a 'better' referee. On the negative side we are ready to be publically hung and Locke hasn't got long to recover to face up to his old team

After the way Warrington took us apart on Sunday i don't think HKR will have Wembley to worry about.

Maybe, but someone will get a bonus shot after the semi.The point is who plays who and in wk1, wk2 etc should have been set at the season start.
Just like when SL first announced, part way through a season. Then Widnes in, bombed some games and then out.
It is a ludicrous way to run a professional sport.

I'll have a bob on Leigh v HKR on sky

Don't know they have said leighs first game is Friday night and ours is Saturday and its the Saturday game from middle eights that's on sky

Well I must be wrong then

Looks like each team have released their first home game of the 8s.
The rest are launched tomorrow.

We weren't far off last time we played them and we are better now so let's see what we can do.

First two games are Salford away and Bradford at home. Both sundays.

Bradford is Saturday 3pm on sky

Apologies, so it is. Sky game then maybe.

Yes

Are you sure Bradford is the second game? I've just had a look on Leigh's board, they have us down for Salford away on the Saturday with Halifax at home the following Sunday. Best wait until tomorrow I suppose for official announcement.

The Fixture was advised on the Wakefield Twitter account so probably correct.

Thanks Scarlet, Halifax board says their 2nd game is Hull KR so ours looks like Bradford at home the 2nd week as stated in previous posts, Leigh board must have it wrong.

All our home games on a saturday.

We could really shake it up if we beat Salford. We'd still have 3 home games and they'd be under pressure to win some tough games.

Looking forward to it.

Redemption for the players and club!

The next few weekends offer a chance for our players to set the world right and put the nightmare of this season behind us all.

The team really ought to be frothing at the mouth in anticipation of this opportunity.

Rip in from the whistle
