I know because of the stupid league format our season realistically finished a couple of weeks ago but Hull away on Friday. I think we will see a different Hull side to the one we demolished a couple of weeks ago Radford will have them fired up.

Up the Trin

They will want to set the record straight so we'll have to be on our game but it's very winnable.

I should imagine the 19 man will be announced today then, I can see Hull's being very different to the one we saw only a few weeks back.

Sick of people blaming the system for our season being over! It would've been over if it were two up two down. It's our own fault we're adrift of the top 4 not the system FFS.

Whilst it might be over we can still have an impact on who finishes where.

Agreed, we knew where we needed to be when the season started to be in with a chance. It`s not like they moved the goal posts half way through the season.

I will be attending every game as I would usually, I am hoping we can finish strongly and go for that 5th position, starting with Friday!

I'm happy with this season, I do wish we would have closed a few of the closer games down and put them to bed as a win but oh well, all in the past now.

Would rather the lads not risk injury in the coming games though.

We should be going with our strongest squad that is fit, every time they play they risk being injured - I cant see why Chester would be holding anyone back in these last 7 games.

Not a time to rotate the squad then? These games IMO don't necessarily mean anything, doesn't do anything for us next year.

Pride in shirt, extra money for club, individual awards, giving paying customers some entertainment.
I'd say there is a lot to play for.

Not for me, we should be playing our strongest squad of players that are fit to play.

Point taken and fair enough, out of interest do you mean extra money from tickets or do you get extra money for finishing higher in the league table? or both?

Both but I was meaning extra money for finishing higher

What kind of difference does 1 place make, if you don't mind me asking?

Not sure about this season, but last year 8th got nothing and from 7th up it went up by £25k per place, Daddycool will probably tell you if he comes on.

Well, I'll eat my hat!

Best team plays, lets get up that league table.

Accepting that Trinity cant win the league this season, our aim has to be to finish as high as possible.
Of course, there is some monetary benefit to finishing higher up the table but, for Wakefield, it's all about putting a marker down and giving ourselves the best platform possible to start next season.

Hull will definitely want to gain revenge for their mauling a few weeks ago but, even if they have a few more bodies back, this is Wakefields game to win and if we can get a quick start, before FC have chance to find their rhythm we should win.

Come on Trin !

We should be playing our strongest squad and trying to win every game. There is nothing worse than seeing a team in the late stages of the season with one foot on the beach and Friday's match is winnable.

Prize money to play for, league position to play for and other team's seasons to mess up



The likes of Hampshire should be going full tilt for a new deal in these last games. I don't think we're going top see many major ins or outs this autumn so the group need to put their own markers down for next year.

5 of us going. Noticed on the tickets that we're stuck in that NE corner of the East Stand. Obviously they're not expecting a lot of away fans?

It has been like that last few times I have been, did not make the away game in the regular season but in last years super 8`s (Which was a big game in the context of the top 4) we were in the corner as well and there was plenty of us that turned up.

Indeed.
It's a cracking stadium but, we get allocated some of the worst seats that there are.
4 of us going and it promises to be a decent game.

Come on Trin !

All away fans (apart from Rovers) are put in that corner. I've been to a few games at the KCom this season and last and they are there, even the mighty Wigan on a weekend are put in that corner.

(BTW should there be an "on" in the title of this thread or was it started by an American English speaker?)

Pat Bateman is the representative for the grammar police on the Wakefield board for RLfans, just bring it to his/her attention and it will be dealt with swiftly.

Be the same guy who put "Math" a few weeks ago.

6 going including a die hard Chelsea fan who’s first game was the hull game at home .Told him not to expect the same score line this time out ,but if we get stuck in think the points are ours to lose .
Talking of salary caps he went to see Chelsea over the weekend and said they were dire and is taking a real shine to rl now he’s getting to know the rules .
