So the first 3 or 4 games, Miller, Tupou, Ashurst, Arona, Fifita played like they have the last 2 games?! Sorry, can't agree with that.

Chester said e took him off as a precaution, tbh so far for me westerman,has been our best forward all season and now rest of pack are gaining some dominance his efforts have been rewarded. Wouldn’t argue with Miller last week or Lino today but personally would have given him mom both weeks.

Hrs looked particularly effective at second receiver, carrying it in as an extra prop or distributing like a stand off, reminds me of the form he had when he was a big money signing from cas to hull

Think after the last two matches apart from T J this is our strongest 17 .We look like a team that is well drilled in attack and defence The ball movement as improved 100% .No we will not be a Wires ,St, or Wigan but think with a performance like this ,we could finish well clear of relegation

Trys are on Sky Sports page now.

Whilst that’s true we are now playing at home in front of a crowd against lower or mid table teams it’s a funny game but today we played with confidence and with a little more luck could easily have scored 60

Some absolute quality tries Tupo s in particular

Sorry for doubting you CC.



After a game like that what can one say. That try that started in the north-west corner by Kershaw and ended up being touched down by LK in the south-east corner was out of this world. Lino's best game yet and Battye was on top form. I wonder how much of that performance was down to Woody being back in the side. We need to double that 38 next week lads, and really rub it in. Great stuff!!!

Westerman has been outstanding for us, an excellent ball playing 13. I’ll be gutted if he goes to Cas as reported. Big boots to fill if he leaves. Never thought I’d be saying that when he first signed!

Yes, Castleford is an 7.45 kick off Wednesday? 16th June, I wonder if all four new floodlights will be up and running, what a good sight that would be, looking forward to that, I hope we could be allowed a few more fans into the ground for that.

I kept my eyes on both our wingers today and I don't recall a time when they weren't marking their opposite number man to man. Not one overlap seemed to be created for their wingers.

Just goes to show you still need the old heads to guide you round the park and steady the ship alongside the youngsters with their energy and drive and enthusiasm. Think we’ve got a good mix with some good youngsters as well on the fringe waiting their chance .

I said exactly the same...every time Shudds swung it wide there was NO overlap...keep the wingers on the wing marking their opposite number and you stand a far better chance of stopping a try !!

A few times we were 1 short on our left, but LK had a good read on the centre every time and shut him down with Tash coming from his tackle to cover if needed, thought he and Bill worked really well to cut the supply.

He's just played 8 or 9 out of 10 every game, and now he's dragged the rest up to his standards, and it's showed the last 2. The more experienced in the group needed to get back to their level of 3, 4 years ago, and they have so let's hope they keep it up!

Having said that, just wastched the Lino try and Mcgillvray got outside of LK, Bill was there to cover but he still got the ball to the middle where Lino was waiting - planned all along

You don't have to agree but that isn't true.
Miller missed some games, so did Tupou
We didn't have a Hooker for most of those games
We lost players mid game and when he did play Fifita was playing injured.... In fact he still is.

Excellent performance today all round. Really pleased for Chester. Maybe he's a decent coach after all. Knew I was right.

Some great trys Woody went well,but think it is also down to Walker .The big change for me is we have gone from defensive hookers to attacking hooker that can also tackle

I agree.
I think Walker is the best Hooker at the club.

Think it's more down to bringing in 2 decent coaches to work with him When J K left. and then the guy from wires, thinking Mr Chester could do it on is own with the back room staff he had then ,was a bad mistake,witch as now been solved

Suffice to say that Chezzie is happy tonight...

"I thought Mason Lino had his best game in a Wakefield shirt, he got us around the field very well. I'm really pleased for Mason and the rest of the guys because we copped a fair bit (of criticism) in the early rounds.

"I've said from day one when we've got best players on the pitch we can beat anybody. That was the best defence I've seen from a Wakefield team for a number of years.

"We physically dominated that game and we spoke about playing the Wakefield way, an expansive way, and I thought we did that. We executed really well and scored some fantastic tries."

I agree with you to a point, PT, but I think Woody has that knack of putting a bit of spark into the attack (not that we needed it today), particularly when subbing. I see Walker as his natural successor.

Shame that Kaye could’ve complete the try in the 2nd half from the topou back pass
Absolute class

Great to see bill destroy shudds left edge today

I imagine Wardle felt like Napoleon after lord Wellington gave him a sound thrashing at Waterloo

Well your wrong in my opinion.

Congratulations you totally blew us away and we didn't even the deserve the 12 we got, everything you tried came off, we made error after error and you capitalised on them and put us to sword, our lads gave up after the 3rd time they let your guy just put the ball down over the line, disgraceful defence by us and superb from you, we weren't actually that bad in attack but you constantly kept us out and forced errors.
That was the best team performance ive seen against us for many a year.

Enjoy the rest of your bank holiday im sure you will
