All you doubters and critics eat your words !

Are you joking?

thought he was one of our best players today, If he has to make way to fit Brough into the team next week, it would be extremely harsh on him.

He had a superb game. In attack and defence. I felt really sorry for him at the end. He got a stinker of a bomb to field. But that little error is not what lost us the game

Well done Max Jowitt easily best player on our side. Came of age for me. But now's the problem Jowitt or Hampshire

Thought Max was outstanding today, saved a couple of tries. On the basis of the performance today Hampshire would be the one to miss out to fit Brough back in.

Also impressed with max

Great pass to set up the mcb try
Solid under the bomb and in defence

If Hampshire thinks he should be earning NRL money let him go

Im v happy with max at fb

Agree that MJ deserves to stay at full back.

If Brough is back next week I would pair him with Hampshire as I don't think Miller has been sharp enough yet since his return. Rocky's speed could trouble Saints next week so pick the team for the occasion.

And what makes you think Broughy will be staight on the pace after his lay off then?

John Wells on Sky remarked that Jowitt "isn't a natural passer of the ball". I disagree, what does anyone else think?

don't forget Hooley

Is there anyone who still believes that Jowitt cant tackle ?

The two try savers in the first half, especially the one against Yaha, were absolute top efforts.
Two certain tries denied by a lad who "cant tackle". The lad was outstanding and kept us in the game.







Right now, he's given Chester a huge selection dilemma.

Brough has to be in. His kicking game alone in on another level to any other player in the squad and then it should be down to Miller / Hampshire.

Unfortunately, Jowitt will very likely be the one to make way and we will be back to Hampshire at FB and Miller & Brough in the halves but, nobody can say that he doesnt deserve his spot.

We pay good money to watch RL and those two moments were pure class

I’m with you best part of his game.

he was our best player Saturday

I like the way max chimes into the line to create the extra man and his vision to throw those long passes out is first class ,not to mention those terrific one on one tackles.Then we have Jordy and hooley who don’t disappoint when given their chance but just need more game time to go to the next level ,oh to be a coach

I watched Hooley in the Summer bash game, can’t say he impressed tbh. You would expect him to be standing out a bit by now. I know it’s only one game but I was hoping for more.

Absolutely agree on the two try savers
Technically perfect tackle from max on and over the try line

If Ryan Hampshire (and his agent) decide to sign the extension before Friday then we will probably see Hampshire at full back, if not Max will get the shout.

Call me naive but I reckon CC will pick the team based on who he thinks will win the game for him.

I’m not sure of contract legalities, if Hampshire doesn’t resign by midnight Friday, will he still be eligible to play until the end of season?

Thank you

Yes he will still be able to play but it allows him to talk to other clubs at the end of May if he chooses.

If Hampshire really wanted to stay at Wakefield I would have thought he would have signed his contract by now. I would imagine he has been offered a financial deal comparable to others in the team of similar ability.

Don’t see it that way. I’m sure he wants to sign for Wakefield as much as the next but to some players the bottom line is money. Seems to be the issue with this lad throughout his career. Not a judgement as it’s his life but I suspect he’ll take negotiations to the limit.

Yeah, that's what I was really inferring!

Obviously, I want him to stay but not at any cost!

No, absolutely not. There are some on here who push his case as the next Johnathon Thurston but seriously he’s nowhere near the player they claim him to be. At best he has potential and is quick off the mark but that applies to loads of players.

One thing is for sure should he not sign is that some will paint it as the greatest disaster ever to befall the club when it simply won’t be. Personally I have Jowitt further up my keep list.
