Signed 1 year deal with them

Wish him luck, did his best under poor circumstances. Signing him imho was a poor decision from CC but that wasn’t the lads fault.

At least we gave the Giant's academy player two seasons of first team experience. Would've done his development wonders.

I think he will be a top player in a couple of years.

So do I and I’m baffled as to why we chose to help that development.

Yeah but I guess there was a cash incentive to use a loan signing, part financed by money bags Ken, during these last couple of lean years?

I know what you mean but I’m not sure I agree. I mean we spent good money training our own youngsters so surely that was the time to recoup that investment. Playing Senior seems a false economy to me.

If I’m being honest I’m not convinced from what I saw that Greensmith would or will make it, sorry FT but that’s my appraisal FWIW. All the same I’d of liked to have seen him given a go, not least because I didn’t see anything more in Senior at the time.

I now think Senior will make it and you could argue that CC was right. However you could just as reasonably argue that the same would have applied with Ollie given the chances Senior got and again I could be proved wrong.

Usually I’m fully in the coaches know best camp but for me I just can’t see the logic in the Senior debacle and I don’t even think my bestest mate MC could change my mind on that one. We wasted all that game time on a Hudds player who offered nothing special when we could have been developing one of our own or at least one we’d unearthed in the lower leagues.

Just my opinion.

This is where the reserves side used to come in

Frustrating to see young players leave that didn't get a chance

I'm not disagreeing, merely trying to understand the reasoning. He was originally brought in to cover Johnstone on the wing I believe whilst Greensmith was still on furlough? If Shudds were paying him then I can see the financial benefit.

Sending both Croft and Greensmith out on loan but retaining Senior must surely have been financially motivated again or seeing him as a safer wing option???

I wonder if we tried to sign him

I reckon had it been CC in charge we would. From the limited stuff I’ve seen so far, WP seems to be looking at different types of players so I suspect not.

It will be interesting to follow the career paths of Senior against Kershaw.

He was offered a contract by wakey. I suspect his brother resigning for hudds was what tipped his decision.

I doubt it but if you say so.

I don’t personally think it was ever going to be the case, and the Trinity management knew that, they are no mugs.

Best of luck to the lad.

Maybe, but if what you say is true (Big If) then he's signed somewhere he knows he has more competition for his place. Seems illogical to me.

Really? With some of the signings Huddersfield have made they should be well clear of the drop, whereas signing for a club that’s likely to be fighting for their SL status would potentially see him playing Championship rugby eventually.

Should I have played rugby I would’ve loved to represent Wakefield but let’s be honest, Huddersfield have someone who bank rolls them year on year, excellent facilities and a premier league standard stadium. It’s a no brainier for someone with no affiliation to Wakefield.

I don't disagree with what you say, but Jools said he signed because his brother is there.
Of all the reasons to sign, that one is the least likely.

Water under the bridge. I look forward to a fit TJ, Lee Kershaw and young Murphy surely not far from the first team. .
Senior is no better than Kershaw and not as Good as TJ. I don';t know why we signed him,
As for Ollie Greensmith, it';s not like he fluffed his chance, he was never given one so we'll never know.

Can I correct you there. To say Senior is not as good as TJ is a huge understatement, not in the same universe would be my prognosis.

No he wasn’t. But you feel free to keep on making stuff up.

Lol. I knew that was coming.

Our Hudds friend is a pathological liar, but she fishes on here and some bites instantly. She says what some want to hear I'm afraid.

You sure you know more than Jools, she's an expert

you are one class act

I'm starting to find her funny.
