Swap out some of the seats from Robin Park Arena, easy!
23 - 20 - 4
Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions

All this talk of turnstiles. I see Saints have added one to their centres in a panic signing. Thought they were getting Olam and end up wth Blake. Oh well...
Anybody know what date Penrith are planning to come over? Are they doing a proper prep for it, getting over early etc?

Should be a good game. Looks like you men are looking in good shape. I’ve been critical in the past but looking at that new stand and the squad it looks like the clubs finally delivering for the fans. Hopefully you’ll be back up soon causing us problem like you always do. Best of luck on the season

The new owner has been a revaluation for us, he has the financial clout which sadly our previous owner didn’t have and an astute business brain to take the club hopefully to where every Wakefield fan could only dream of 12 month ago.

Fantastic effort with still 6 weeks to go, just shows how much all the community work the club has done is paying off. 20k for Wire/Saints and a couple of 15k should be the aim for this season.

Fox League headline below - more evidence that both the media and Penrith are putting the game under the spotlight. Its great in one sense as it's how it should be - it should be hyped up and sold as one of the most important fixtures. But if truth be told I fear for us a little bit - we'll have to raise the intensity a few levels. Definitely wish Morgan Smithies was on our teamsheet for it.
'Luai underwent shoulder surgery after the grand final, but teammates believe he is "giving himself every chance" to face Wigan on Feb 24'.
EDIT - Just seen the announcement that Ticketmaster have become official partners to both clubs.
Not overly impressed with this, Suppose the big question is will the club still be selling match day tickets from the ticket office as well ? This could put a lot of casual supporters off, seems a backwards step to me after all the good community work the club's been doing.
