I thought in the 2nd half the kicking to touch was the wrong option and it was a relief for us. If you had of kept putting high balls up towards Barba and Grace then you would of probably beaten us. The best team lost tonight. Still given the past few years of struggle it's quite a fast and free scoring team you have there and to be in contention for the playoffs is to be applauded.

At 78 minutes we're winning 16-12 and Saints are flapping on the last tackle like headless chickens. Nothing we did before that time can be classed as negative because the games in the bloody bag!

Step forward Scott Grix.

I thought you were desperately unlucky. If Finns kick goes either side of the post you win the game. Instead it hits the post and Saints get the ball back and win the game. Yeah fair enough Grix didn't help.

I feel sick to the stomach... that is the top 4 gone when we were so so close 30 secs away!!!!!!

so so negative in the second half giving them field position by kicking out on 30 m line and 2 fifth tackle flukey tries but because they were finishing their sets 20 m out from our line because of our negativity they were close enough to score.....

and what the hell was GRIX doing!!!!!!!!!!!!

ps fifta looks like he has swallowed 2 more sheep and is offering nothing - where was Randall tonight?

the start of the downward spiral - no stadium, no wakey in super league , was that our last chance ever to win something? GONE CAUSE OF OUR STUPID PLAY.

And to me your comment makes you a complete fool

Go back to bed knobby were still in the top 4

People are being too harsh on Grix. I was in perfect line in the East Stand and the ball cruelly curved away from his run. It is what Rugby balls do!!! Make you look a mug. Bad luck. If I wanted to be picky, 2 bad penalty decisions. The kick to touch tactic...I am 50/50 on. Certainly the right thing during the harsh sin binning but maybe we overplayed it a bit and almost didn't believe we were good enough to win by scoring again. But overall...bloody harsh luck and please, please leave Scott Grix alone on this one. It is very unfair. ALSO...WE ARE STILL IN THIS!

Jesus H Christ get a grip man!

Utter utter drivel. All this stuff...people should hang their heads in shame after the season we've had. I might have rested Grix once or twice this year and given Max a go but overall Grix has been one of the reasons we have done so well and he was damn unlucky the way the ball curved away from him at the end...and many had the chance to stop that play before it got that far, and failed. Get a grip everyone...and...again... we are still in this. If Hull beat Wigan tomorrow it is back in our hands. I hope the team have more bottle and brains than some of the daft folk on here

We win our last two games and we finish in the top 4 regardless of what any other team does.

Oh yes of course..as one is Wigan. Even more reason for folk to get a grip. Christ on a great massive bike. If you had said to anyone at the start of the season "fancy Hull away and Wigan home for a Semi Grand Final place" would we have taken it?

Nice post. Please read my post again and see were I have put Grix shouldn't play again.

I am heartbroken I have worked all day and have not concentrated I can not belive we lost the game and our season unless a miracle occurs is over after that loss!

same though we should of beat hull round 1 and Warrington away and last night would not of mattered....

how am I going to sleep to night!!!! we were so close.....

WHAT WAS GRIX DOING!!!!!!!!!

Read my post again I never said Grix was to blame. I said his error cost us and it did but I didn't blame him individually for the loss.

Did anyone watch Grix after the final hooter? I did. The guy was beside himself, he is hurting just as much if not more than us fans are. Yes he was involved in the incident which ultimately decided the game. Yet, give the guy a break.

I saw him after the game. He just sat there hugging his kids.
I'm please some people shouted to get his head up when he walked back in.

His wasn't the only mistake to cost us the game. He was just the last one.

Correct - funny how no one is slating Finny for missing the conversation at the end (not that they should be mind)
Grix is an easy target for some, despite him overall being superb most of the season.

It was a painful end to the game but every single Trinity player (including Grix) can walk round with their head held
high. The SL 'whipping boys' are still up there with the 'big boys' no matter what happens in the remaining games.

Gutted for your guys last night.
You controlled the game for 78 minutes then blew it in the last 2.
Yes Grix was at fault without doubt but for me was your MoM until then.
Plenty of if`s and maybe`s but taking the 2 near the end was a mistake.
For me Finns miss on the conversion was the one that he would get 9 times out of ten that probably hit you more.
Like others have said win your last 2 and you make the 4.
If Wigan have nothing to play for by then you might only have to beat Hull which is a massive ask.
Well done on your season so far.

Exactly this
I cant believe some of the comments on here and to single one out from a team that gave their all is shameful. We should be grateful for the season and proud of everyone of them. Did anyone see Lynne last night the lad could hardly walk never mind run and he dug in and had a real go. One of the best seasons I have had (and its not over)and would thank everyone of them if I had the chance

It s been a great season but we still after achieving so much seem to have a number of flat performances in our make up. No one seemed to stamp their authority on the game last night or stood up to call the shots,. Its simply not enough to play for each other but having said that if the grix incident happened mid way through the second half would we have crumble or got urselves back in the game.
Saints are not a good team they have individuals that can change a game but I saw nothing like the team spirit Wakey showed and that team spirit will be needed over the next 2 games.
We then need 100% concentration over the full 80 mins and a voice in the middle thrashing it up a little.

But we are moving forward, compare this seasons performances in the Super 8's compared with last year. This time last year we'd thrown in the towel and we're getting hammered regularly. We've come on leaps and bounds and I for one am proud of the progress of this club.

Ironic ray price has been discussed on this forum recently some on hear will remember how he used to stand facing the post's arms outstretched ready Incase the ball rebounded, well if some of the players had remembered this maybe the outcome would have been different.

Just seen another brain fart from Australian international Blake Ferguson which cost his team the lead thankfully it didn't cost them the game but just goes to show that these things do happen.

Really felt for you last night and was hoping you would win but from very early on in the second half you could just visibly see the doubt creeping into your play,wether deliberate or not I could understand you taking the sting out of the game whilst ashurst was in the bin but to continue afterwards was almost suicidal. Surprised nobody has mentioned how you lost your way once Tyler Randell went off at that time he was the best player on the pitch and outplaying Roby,he's going to be a class signing for you guys.

Good luck in your final two games it's a tall ask but not impossible.

Didn`t he do that when defending the kick?
All the Wakefield players were facing the posts when the kick hit the post
Or am I missing the point?

Agree about Randell, made a noticeable difference when he was off, Hadley not quite the same influence
