It's times like this that hopefully we will see why we all think JK is a top coach and man manager,you can excuse having players missing and the odd bad performance but this is starting to turn into a joke and the problem is that some of the players are looking like they don't want to play and give it their all for this club,which was the difference between the teams today,one team wanted it and the other didn't.
We need to Tronc to go if he's going and whoever is coming in needs to be a player that can at least give is all.Looking at the team you wouldn't have thought they'd had a training session all week,complete and utter lack of organisation in defense and attack.
JK really does need to get this team at least on the same page because at the end of the day there is still a lot of talent in this club but seems directionless.

They were the better team.

Absolutely bang on and that is the reality of our situation.

Is it usually £20 to get in? Seems a bit excessive, especially as your website advertised it as £18 (before it crashed).

£18 pre-pay, £20 on the day.

you signed the players jk you sort it out you smile and finger tap when all is well your a

Truely awful today and one of the worst games I have ever had the misfortune to watch.

Two terrible teams of which they were marginally better.

Would not have minded if we put some effort in but it looked like they had all been on the lash at the National yesterday the way the way playing and the 'speed' with which they ran out/poassed the ball.

Terrible and a real waste of money.

If any new fans came today for the £10 deal they wont be coming back. Cant see us doing anything at Quinns with that sort of attitude

Crusaders were bloody awful, unfortunately we were worse.

Probably the worst Wakefield game I've seen in the Super League era. Like watching Batley reserves Vs London Skolars reserves.

Utter garbage from start to finish. Glad most of the crowd only paid a tenner because £20 to watch that would have been daylight robbery.

We were one-dimensional yesterday and lacked any creavity. Get the the ball, run it up the middle with no-one supporting. It was only when the ball came wide that we looked half decent. You could tell from the first minute what was coming.

The only excuse is the three games in 8 days argument. The Crusaders only played two and it might have made a difference.

Hate to say it, but looks like we were a one man team and he has gone with no-one to replace him. Cooke does not look interested and Sam was missing yesterday. Our only hope now is a decent cup run - bounce back at Quins, two "easy" home draws and a one-off semi.

Speaking as someone who got back in to following WTW in 2008, this is probably the least optimistic I've been about our prospects. The performance yesterday was lacklustre, devoid of energy, enthusiasm and creativity. We seemed to lack a game plan, no dummy runners and non existant kicking game. I know we have had a lot of off field distractions but that is a poor excuse for yesterdays performance. I will be dissappointed if JK keeps faith in some of the players he put out yesterday. We need to get back to basics and play the players who want to be at the club, if that means putting more youngsters in the team then so be it. I'd rather us lose with enthusiasm and blood new players than watch another performance like yesterday. Gledhill was a breath of fresh air when he played but I can't fathom why he's been dropped and we are still playing Tronc who for me is going through the motions. Must also be affecting the other players at some level.

IMO we desperately need a replacement for DB, no one is organising the team and the kicking has been poor since he left. Not saying we need Jonathan Thurston but someone who is capable of filling that role and marshalling the players on the field would be a good start. I also think we have lost sight of some of the basics - our PTB speed is woeful, dummy running non-existant even the kick chasing was pedestrian.

Based on what I saw of Quins vs Saints this weekend, I think we may be embarrased next weekend also. Hope I'm proved wrong, but on the back of yesterdays performance I can't bring myself to make the trip. Sorry if this all sound a bit maudlin, but I'm struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel at the minute.

Well the weather was better this week and we've got the best pitch in the league. Apart from that my sunday afternoon was spoiled by going to Belle Vue, sorry "The Hearwell Stadium". I think the only optomist there yesterday, was the guy who guessed,how many people had been fooled into attending. Thinking it was a rugby league match and not just a charitable donation to Wildcats P.L.C.

Sorry I forgot to mention the mascot Daddy Cool, who seems to be the only one there who gives his all week in week out. Thank You.

Keep the faith!! Supporting a team has a funny way of turning around. Look at Portsmouth...relegated Saturday, FA Cup Final on Sunday. Never know, we could be getting all excited in August about a cup final appearance

Does he play scrum-half? Can certainly run fast!

Might have had a better result if he had !!!

I hope you're right. I get that we are a small club, with limited resources and we can't expect to challenge the top clubs on a sustained basis, but we should a) be prepared to turn up and graft and b) be able to execute the RL basics. Hopefully, the coaching staff will be instilling this in to the players this week and we'll see an improvement sooner rather than later!

When push comes to shove we where beaten by 2 lucky tries that we couldn't have done anything about in reality - but the fact is we where woeful in both attack, defense and the body language and attitude seemed all wrong. We had an extra game but I don't think thats a fair excuse, but it won't help.

Trouble is, they where a fairly poor side offering not a right lot - the sort of side (with respect to them) should be beating at home if we want to get in the play offs. We look clueless with ball in hand and have no real organisation - players popping up in the wrong place at the wrong time spoiling any chance of effective attack. We need to get this sorted, and fast before losing becomes a habbit - thats 3 very poor shows over Easter, lucky to get 2 points and keep the points difference relatively in tact.

Only positive is the big effort from Paul King who was by far and away our best player when on the park.

This week - Gledhill in for Tronc, Johnson in for Millard in my opinion.

Agree with your post 100%, although personally I would go further and bring Davey back for Latu and Morton for Blanch. Also why was Ferguson not playing? Injured?

Injured! Should be fit for this weekend!

Cheers TRB - we certainly missed him.

Blaymire was hamstring so will prob miss..

Murphy
Blanche

for me.

How fickle are you pussycats and you lot see we are? He he he



It's only a few games ago, you were praising everything. Now after 2 defeats you say tronc is crap, Jefferies isnt trying and why does kear play players out of position.

Get a Grip. I wish we had your points tally and were in the play offs.

and we are still better than you

Tronc is far from crap, he's just not interested anymore. His heart is in Brisbane and he's playing as such.

It hasn;t taken long for you lot to bite
