Apart from the fact he'll probably get more money playing 7s for England.

I can't find any info on what mcb is up to at all
I'm positive I read an article saying he'd gone to play 7s although I can't find that article on the web either now
I looked at the squads too and couldn't see him either
Unless he's in the reserves?

I thought he was playing 7's. He posted a photo on his instagram yesterday that he had just moved house.

| Personally I would like to see us give young Kershaw given is chance if it doesn't work then fair enough, But i remembered some Wakey fans saying that this so-called Tom Johnstone wasn't ready or good enough for first team game time How did that turn out like,
So IF we are looking at bringing someone in on loan then what's Tom Lineham doing these days is he injured atm or not getting in at warrington i'm sure the Wire fans could let us know could he be worth a punt for a loan deal until the end of the season and then we could still say we have still got TOM on the wing.

I would like to go with Kershaw, the lad had a 1 in 2 at Oldham last year and seemed to impress. Picking up 2 MOM performances!
I personally don't think we will bring anyone in, it will be Jowitt or Kershaw. Jowitt didn't have a great 20 first minutes against Warrington but nobody did and similar to the rest of the squad came into the game as time went on. I believe we would have to re-call Kershaw as he's on loan at Oldham again isn't he?

| No offence to Kershaw but he looked like he was crapping his pants in the boxing day friendly, so based on that I'm not sure he's ready?

Jowitt’s errors were the catalyst to that very poor start. When he comes in he needs to at least do the basics right. He does the Basics then we win, it’s that simple. It can’t be sugar coated. If he wants regular 1st team with Wakefield that can’t happen again.

Funnily enough i recall Tom Johnstone being hung out to dry on here after his first few appearances. He had passed the ball to BJB who was not expecting the pass and dropped it 10 yards from the Wakey line. The opposition (cant remember) picked it up and ran under the posts. All players make mistakes.
I would put straight back in this week.

| The wires were always going to target that side But after a shaky start against one of the best attacking teams Jowitts side settled down into the game.
There were seasoned players out there who fell well short of expectations in that first half.
I say go again they’ll only get better with more games under their belts .

| Maybe Torpedo Tupou will be back this week?
I would play Bill on the wing with Joe at centre - also hoping that Matty is back to firm up the left side too.
Up the Trin.

Bill played on wing a few times last season and is equally effective there.

Agree with this
Arundle will get bill plenty of ball too
Bill started off as a winger so knows how to play there too, he'll be equally as dangerous
Lynne has being looking really dangerous when he's coming back in to broken play
Leave Lynne and bjb as they are for me
Joe and going to be playing together in partnership the rest of the season I would think
The sooner they get that combo going the better

I would say Bill on the wing - he is a better winger (having played there) than Reece.
Also why disrupt both sides on the edge? I'd leave Reece/BJB where they are.

| Good arguments either way.
I'll agree with Chezzies decision - and reserve the right to bitch like hell if it doesn't come off

Jowitt's errors alone were not the catalyst for the poor start ! most of the team were poor so to single him out is not really fair is it?
He was out of position, playing his first game of the season at SL level and needs support not destructive, inaccurate criticism.

I don't agree with MP that it was all on him but the disrupted side was targeted and failed. He does need to be better to keep that place but he did get better in the game so he deserved at least 1 if not a number of games to get it right.
You can guarantee Hastings will target him too.
If an experienced wing became available it would put a lot of pressure on Max.
