www.wakefieldwildcats.co.uk/news ... ce-vikings Lyne and Annakin to miss out for me

I'm very happy with that squad, good to see Molloy fit, wonder who will miss out. Looking forward to it.

The write-up says that 7 of the new signings are included, but I can only see 6 ...

Arona
England
Finn
Jones-Bishop
Anthony Tupou
Walton

So who is the 7th ??

I've just noticed Gibson is missing, he would've been the 7th Fil?

Based upon been poor defensively, Johnstone to miss out. I think it is important to get off to a good start, along with Annakin to miss out.

I also would have had Gibson in the squad, I honestly thought he was the pick of the three quarters in the Cas match

Also surprised with no Hall and Tansey

Unless they have included Bill Topou hes still pretty new was he still the Aussie teams property last season?

It says six of the new signings included doesn't it ?

No Mickel Simon either.
Can't wait for it

BJB
Johnstone
Tupou
Arundel
Lyne
Miller
Finn
Scruton
Howarth
England
Kirmond
Tupou
Arona

Sio
Anderson
Ashurst
Molloy

Annakin and Walton to miss out i think, although i would prefer to see walton in there somewhere personally.

Don't know that Johnstone should miss out but, our right hand side needs to defend better than they did at Cas.
As others said at the time, this wasn't down to Johnstone but, we will need to be a whole lot tighter down that side.

Got to worry if Anderson, Arundel, Johnstone, Lyne and Miller are all in the team as we can`t afford 5 poor tacklers in the side. From the pre season games Hall and Tansey deserve a place in the squad. Presume Gibson is injured. Anakin must play if we are to have any chance of a win.

Sounds like you are putting the powder in your gun at the ready?

I guess someone has read my post...It HAS now been changed to 6

I'd go with...

Ben Jones Bishop
Tom Johnstone
Jason Walton
Bill Tupou
Reece Lyne
Jacob Miller
Liam Finn
Nick Scruton
Michael Sio
Scott Anderson
Danny Kirmond
Anthony Tupou
Tinirau Arona

Subs.
Anthony England
Matty Ashurst
Stuart Howarth
Jonny Molloy

I think there will be 4 vying for the final 2 places in the match day squad.

Ashurst, Molloy, Annakin and Walton.
Possibly the first 2 to miss out for me

All a bit of fun I suppose, but I will trust selection to a professional, vastly experienced coach who has had the opportunity to see the players day in, day out since November.

I am worried about the defensive frailties of the backs but I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised. Enjoy the last few days of the off season and let's hope we have a squad that we can begin to be proud of this year.

WTID

I'd go with same but would start England and Ashurst with Aruna and Anderson on the bench.

Smith named the actual gameday 17 in the clubs press conference which is linked on the clubs twitter feed.

just listened to that - he does name the team!!

Yep BS has gone with..

Ben Jones Bishop
Tom Johnstone
Joe Arundel
Bill Tupou
Reece Lynne
Jacob Miller
Liam Finn
Nick Scruton
Stuart Howarth
Anthoney England
Danny Kirmond
Matty Ashurst
Tinirau Arona

Subs. Anthony Tupou, Jon Molloy (probably play prop interchange), Michael Sio, Scott Anderson

Come on Trin!

I'll tell thee what,I'm glad they don't play football on BV anymore,the Whinos pitch is bad and Wigans pitch is a disgrace.

Disgrace! Do you think it looks that good!!!

If that would of been our ground Hemings would have been all over it!

Have I missed something is Jason Walton in the 19 or not ?
