Super League results are very unpredictable as seen today with the results in France and at Warrington. Am predicting a narrow win for Wakefield tomorrow.
Trivia alert!! The last time I attended a Wakefield v Hull fixture was at Wembley in 1960 when we were hammered by a Derek 'Rocky' Turner led team who were handed the cup by the Queen which I believe was the only time she ever presented that trophy. The Lance Todd winner that day was the legendary Tommy Harris.
Turner was a star player for Hull KR in the early 50's when they were mostly at the foot of the table and Turner had some epic battles with Johnny Whiteley and Tommy Harris before later joining them in the GB team that last won the Ashes series in England(1959).

Two very interesting results last night. Huddersfield bouncing back from the cup strongly and looking highly likely to make the 6. Leeds rejuvenated also, thought they looked transformed albeit against a Wire team at sixes and sevens.

Leeds were pretty impressive, really showing the bounce of a new coach. They looked to be enjoying their rugby, throwing the ball around with real confidence. Warrington on the other hand were awful. Williams looks a shadow of the player he was - although he'll still play for England of course. Powell seems to have the weight of the world on his shoulders.
