Can somebody please tell me what Cooke does for our team. Every game I have seen from him he doesn't look interested (apart from the kick, which looking at it he isn't the best). I have no real reason at this moment in time at watching Wakefield lose again. I am sick of wasting my valuable money watching us lose games we should win. Where is Cooke at the play of the ball. He has no interest in playing for Wakefield by the looks of it and I have no interest in watching him. Well done to our defenestration today we were good (on the past few results anyway) but on the attack we have no player that controls the game. I saw bj and so taking more kicks today than Cooke. I am now sick of wasting my well earned money on watching this shower of s***e playing what they call rugby. I have been a season ticket holder for the last 20 odd years and if I didn't hold one again this year I would give up now. I can't see where our next win will come from with the team we have. I would give Cooke away at present for nothing and take any one of our youngsters an give them a chance. I realy do think I am 1 game away from hanging up my gloves and walking away. As the games I pay to watch are embarassing.

I am with you regarding Cooke I think he is a crap, but tell me this did you go tonight or just watch it on the telly.

I went. I am waiting for the train home now. Why????

I agree with maxswaby, and for the record, for what difference it makes I watched it at home!!!!
No doubt I'll be at BV for the bulls game, but I could easily start missing games for more rewarding pastimes!!!!

The joys of having an iPhone.

I thought Cooke was shocking, Hull were crap but we were awful.

Murphy really impressed me though, he is going to be some player.

Oh wait.. I watched it on tv and didn't go... please ignore my comments as i am not a true supporter.

cooke has been awful since signing with us! iv seen him play 3 times and not once have i seen him do anything to make me think he is worthy of getting in the first team...or even worth signing for that matter. he is hardly ever around the play of the ball (and when he is offers very little), he doesnt look interested, never takes control, i only noticed one kick from him tonight and it is ridiculous to think that he can replace broughy.

on a side note, i saw alot of players (BJ, Obst and JD being the most obvious) moaning and sulking when things didnt go their way. there is very little support for one another

trust me you didn't need to go to the game to apprecite how bad we were. Yes murphy was good and I thought bj was ok. Tried to take control with the play of the ball. Which is what we need. Latu had a stinker of a first half and the ref was absoluteley ridiculous. I can understand a ref if he gives the same desisions all the way throughout the game but he didn't. But tale nothing away from the ref and hull they played him well. I just disapointed I'm cooke. I expected him to shine today against his old team. But I didn't even see a glimpse of anything special. He stood back and let everyone else ( bj and so ) take control of the ruck and stayed well clear of everything else. He came up with pass 5 mins from time that was 'good' but apart from that I saw nothing. From my perpective I feel we should get rid I see don't see any difference from the first game he played and I am so disapoonted in (bring back the hull players) kear as I do not see where our next win will come from...... Forget the stadium, if we don't perform we are out next time the franchise comes round.

Damn iPhone can't spell. Sorry.

I've said before even if Cooke is playing well - which he hasn't since he pulled on a wakey shirt, he is a loose cannon

He's lazy, unpredictable, unreliable and as we have already seen a waste of space when he is not interested

His move to HKR was resented and the majority of fans didn't want him IMHO his move to Wakefield is an even bigger mistake

Get rid and the sooner the better

A huge thankyou for taking this waste of salary cap space of our hands, he just under achieves sooooo much its frustratinng

Thank god we only signed him till the end of the season

His interview before the game also came over as "can't give a sh*t what people think of me

high elbow pass to the left, anything else?
Increases weight of backs,
adds several chins to team
makes Kevin Henderson feel good looking
uses up the xl shirts bought for team
makes Hull feel happy he aint there anymore
will contribute to bar take on Westgate

what a signing

One thing please kear do not sign him for next season please, we know you really really like him BUT he's not doing it for us.

Many people thought he was passed it before we signed him. Tonight has done nothing to disprove that. You'd have thought that playing in Hull with the crowd on his back, he'd be really up for it and trying his best to put one over on them. Sadly for us, and for him, I don't think there's owt left in him to do that.

One moment that said it all for me was, with about 5 mins to go, he picked up a loose ball deep in our own half. He had loads of space in front of him, but rather than run into it, draw the defenders, and then look for support, he dithered around, looking for the faster man on his shoulder straight away. Even if he'd hit the hole and taken the tackle, that would have been something. He's either not fit enough and not thinking fast enough, or he's nothing left to offer.

the problem is we don't have long left for the franchise application. If we carry on like we are we have no chance stadium or not. I am a long time trin supporter and I feel like not bothering. What do you think the new supporters will think travelling to hull and watching this shower. I can see our gates dropping to harlequins level. I will more than likely be there for the bradford match after the magic weekend (only cause I've payed upfront) but after that if we carry on like we are you can count me and the various 6-10 supporters I bring. New and old. I feel embarressed to wear the Wakefield shirt these days. And this cannot be good for the club. I don't know if we need a new coach to sort it out or what. (I love kear) but I want to see us return to winning ways and soon.

His challenge cup medal and grand final appearance at Hull would say otherwise.

Wakey need to give him time IMO.

if it wasn't for us lot booing him and chanting Judas I woulden't have known he was on the pitch!

have to agree with you all that he doesn't look bothered playing for Wakefield. I've seen Cooke rip teams apart while playing for both ourselves (he was outstanding in 2006) and also in the derby's for Rovers (he has never lost a Hull derby, for either side)

on his returns to the KC he usually has responded to the abuse by putting in a great performance, tonight he just didn't look interested

.....and his p*** poor performances in red and white and his whole attitude on the field for us speaks volumes

We don't have the time for idle wasters - he's not interested

Say what you want mate, he's a very good player.
Also he wasn't the only one who didn't look interested.

I think the word we're all looking for regarding Cooke tonight is 'aloof'.

I'm sure he's still got many a match winning performance in him, I'm just losing confidence that we're going to see it sometime soon. Tonight should have been his chance to show the league what he his capable of, instead it's just fueled the fire of wanting rid.

That was 5 years ago and he's been going downhill ever since.

Thanks - I will!

Nobody is disputing that he wasn't the only one but the thread is on Cooke

Edited for accuracy

I was merely pointing out that he hardly "under-achieved" while at Hull FC.
