A rejuvenated Hall would be like a new signing, if he did have underlying injury issues then he deserves a 2nd chance. Clearly has the ability to do well for us.



Its a clean slate for all of them as far as I'm concerned, lets see what Brian Smith can shape with a full pre-season under his belt.

Vasty its no big thing to be way better than Tansey, Lyne and Arundel, you and I are better that Lyne for starters.

Vera lynne would be better than reece

Thought they were the same person!

Don't know where,don't know when

I believe these are the changes to our squad

I admit this may not be the definitive list but it is the best I could come up with however I guess it shows we have a long way to go with either our player retention and recruitment.

Eleven out of those seventeen didn't really contribute to the final equation.

Although in your eyes we may have a long way to go with player retention and recruitment, the new season is still way off.

Have a bit of faith, rather than picking fault at every opportunity.

I'd like to see Tupou kept on and be our own big strong winger. May not have blistering pace but will do really well getting us on the front foot coming out of our half. There is certainly some big money (for us) off the wage bill now collis tim smith and Ali are off the books. Recruitment no where near finished IMO

Out of the 17 players mentioned, 5 of those Moore, L Smith, Walker, Kavanagh, and Mulalley weren't even our players, Paea, Collis and Sammut are long gone Locke was only a short term deal and Smith was sacked, McShane, D Smith, and Washbrook have been transfered.

So realistically we are only looking at 5 players, out of those if Trout or Kirke get a new contract I'll show my arriss on the town hall steps, so not forgetting Godinet that just leaves Riley, Ali and Topou needing to be sorted out, so as you point out there is little or no point panicking just yet, unless of course it's in one's nature to consistantly try and cause unrest in the camp.

I will say again that the list represents the squad used last season regardless of if they were on loan or signed, they need to be replaced. What does it matter if they were on short term deals they are not here now and will need to be replaced.

We have lost a chunk of very experienced and one presumes expensive players so we should have a lot of salary available. I wait to see how we spend this on and who we sign considering we hope to be near the full cap this season.

I sadly lack your gullibility when it comes to Wakefield Trinity and am not happy to accept another season of mediocrity despite this being an improvement on what we endured.

100 percent agree with this post , at moment we have announced half a dozen players - who in the main are squad players or relatively unproven , let's hope the next few signings add some genuine class to the squad . At the moment it's not exactly inspiring

Heard four new signings this coming week , if their not top four quality players I'll stick my kneck out now and say next season will be same as
