No doubt he had a very good season whilst with Salford and I'm sure he doesn't regret the time he spent there. Moving to Castleford and then to Huddersfield Giants has been a personal nightmare for him and returning to Wakefield has rejuvenated his career.

If we don't sign him I'm sure he would be happy to return to Salford but I get the feeling that he would move heaven and earth to stay with Trinity.

As for our front row next year I can see Korkidas being part of a very effective pack.
With the rumoured additions of Shane Tronc, Terry Newton to go alongside James Stosic, Richard Moore, Oliver Wilkes and probably Korkidas. Wakefield Trinity will have a very difficult pack to contain and hopefully with the addition of a new stand off to go alongside Danny Brough we will have a half backs to steer them around the field.

To be fair i dont think he had a nightmare with us its more a case of he was basically brought in to cover for our main props and we have been quite fortunate with them this year and there hasn't been many chances for Korki this year. We let him come to your lot because he would be guaranteed 1st team rugby with you whereas with us it might have been once every 6 games or something.
Anyway we'll probably have him back next year - our reserves are a bit light in the prop department :wink:

Korki is a wildcat through and through we are the only club who he will ever perform for. It will be a utter shame if we don't sign him hes a fan favourite and he loves putting the red , white and blue on. Hes been outstanding for us since he returned.

UP THE TRIN !!!!

Lets not get too carried away with Korki just yet. Yes he has played well since his return nothing spectacular but getting through his fair share of work and not too many penalties. That said any deal would have to be right for the club and if he's looking for good money then I hope he doesn't get it from us. Though i'm sure if he doesn't end up signing it will all be the clubs fault...

I think you're right about that, he probably is Wakey through and through, but you'll find players in most teams that are like that. We had Paul Reilly who would run through brick walls for the Giants but never been the same elsewhere. Then we have Drewy, I know he's playing ok at the moment but I don't honestly think, from what I've seen of him, that he has played to the standard he played at with us.
I think for Korki's sake and his career he would be better off staying at Wakey where he belongs, but is it down to money like it was with Drewy?

This will be our year......................................................Hopefully!
But maybe not with child running amock.
