@ditton-donkey nisbet got recalled but we have Fleming back from injury. Hopefully keep hold of Bailey. With injuries mounting we will have to perform at our best against Wakefield
I don't think anyone thinks we will win this one, but if we give a good go the fans will be happy. They are only human and if everyone gives 100% for the full 80 mins you never know. Definitely need some fresh loan players soon though. It might attract some new fans and I be buying another Season pass for the kids next year.
We will more likely get beat but as long as we are competitive thats all we can ask for.
My comment isn't an attack in the squad or how they've played ..but in recent weeks we've conceded 18 to York 28 to haven and are up against a full time team packed with SL/NRL players who are battering everyone as expected..we put up a decent fight all to the good but reality we could play half decent n still ship 40+...just the reality of wakey in this league
@cumbria-viking Unlikely we can get off to a bad start and claw it back, more likely we end up with a blow out score. Lets hope their 1895 Cup celebrations continued long into the week! Clearly one to get through with as little damage conceded as possible, but a heavy defeat, shouldn't knock us off course!
I don't think we should count on Wakefield being off form from their Wembley win. Having listened on the radio and watched the highlights, some bad ball retention and defending from Sheffield helped Wakefield, we should not be that generous. The help we gave York can't be repeated.
An area that has concerned me in recent weeks is the kick on last tackle, too many are going straight to the fullback and that will put Wakefield on the front foot.
It'll be interesting to see how Sheffield do against Featherstone after losing at Wembley, it might be a long day for them.
Wakefield fans allocated blocks in the North stand.West and East not opening.
Hopefully no trouble mixing us all up. Thought be better if they was allocated the South Stand.
Well the Leigh boy is back for 2 weeks, suspect he goes into the centre, but his defence is not the best - wakey will target that side
better of sticking with roberts or putting Lloyd back there
@ditton-donkey not impressed with this at all. I hope this doesn’t mean Bailey has gone back (two weeks loan will run out by Sunday)?
