How have you undoubtedly (as you put it) got better front row, Halfs and Hookers than us? Very bizarre statement from a fan of a team that crumbled at the business end of the season. I see no evidence to suggest that you will perform better in them positions than we will. Maybe at half back with Chase but your depth in that position isn't great.

(1) We had something to crumble FROM

(2) We had more injuries than enough, and had to take players on loan and out of the academy to cover for injuries to our major players



Also, having blooded some of the young guys, we don't need to go on an all-or-nothing trawl through a lot of other people's cast-offs. Wakefield, on the other hand, had a very poor season because they had a very poor squad of players. This is why they've needed to sign a whole raft of new players for the coming season.



It's funny that both yourself and Mr. "newground" didn't understand these basic facts.

Yeah but we beat you and you only just beat us 3 times we had a team of kids. I think we will be well above you next season ..

By crumbled you mean played with 13 injuries including 4 at prop?



As for better in certain positions:

Chase & Orr are better than Tim Smith & Gareth Moore

Milner & Clark are better than...who even is Wakefields hooker for that matter?

Emmitt, Walker, Huby, Jackson are quite clearly superior to the likes of Liam Higgins.

Most of team we played all season were kids! thompson, milner, clark, massey, walker, eden, arundle, owen, holmes, and davies are all kids.



Kear is a master motivator, i wonder if agar will get you to up your game as much when you play us.

huby, emitt, jackson and walker are better than dowes, higggins, amor and raliegh.

milner, clark with hudson as back up is better than ellis, davey and wood at back up.

orr and chase are better than tim smith and moore.

Don't to forget to add Paul Johnson and Oliver Wiles (possibly Lautiti stepping into the front row) to that list. I would disagree with you all the way on that one. I could be generous and say your four first choice will be on similar ability to ours but as you can see our depth and option of rotation makes me think we are better equipped for the long campaign. Comfortably better equipped I would say!







Or rising star Matty Wilde to step into that position who impressed last year and bags of potential probably more than Milner and as much as Clarke. Motu Tony is also available to cover in that position. Considering our depth is stronger I would again say we are better equipped for next year.









Don't forget to add Issac Luke to that. Plus we have players that are more than capable of dropping into that position such as Wilde, Washbrook and Morrision.



Orr I feel is at the end of the road, he's clearly lost a lot of pace you have to have questions marks about whether he can keep the pace especially come business end of the season. Chase we all know is first class and he is basically a one man band. The lack of depth you have after Chase is a really worry. At least last season you had Widders to drop into that position which I thought was one of the strong features of your game, something that you will miss for sure.



Considering our real strength in depth in them positions it's hard to argue that Cas will be stronger. Just hope your one man Rangi show doesn't get injured because you will be in real trouble then.

Typo corrected. So, you're saying that we're 3 times better than you!

I could easily see us beating you 4 times next year.



The friendly, MM & BV+WR.



Even Fully's worried about your recruitment now & as Dee put I too subscribe to the theory of you being a "one man band". Personally I think there's only one reason your recruitment's going so badly: finance. I will give you your dues in that you have never gone bust & have been better managed than we were under Uncle Ted- You pay your bills & never spend beyond your budget. Fair does, I do respect that.

But if your recruitment's being so poor that must say something about your business plan. As we've demonstrated at WTW small steps can be inexpensive and increase revenue streams exponentially.



What ever happened to Mr Probiz & wanting to get into bed?

Before you start bragging, let the guys play the games first.



One man band....



Would that be Chase

or Milner

or Clark

or Huby

or Emmitt

or Arundel

or our kicker Dixon?



Which one?

Or Orr

Or Owen

Or Walker

or Basil?

Yet another thread turning into another bitch fest with Wakey trolls

Would that be Chase- IMO Tim Smith on his day can do anything Rangi can, he just has/has had other issues.

or Milner- Eliis is as good, played very well in a poor Quins team in 2011.

or Clark- Wildie is a better prospect IMO

or Huby- Paul Johnson will be better than Huby & IMO having watched him week in week out is as good now as anything I've ever seen from CH.

or Emmitt- Steve Southern

or Arundel- Mellars/Collis, as for home grown I'd say Walshire has the potential to be better than Arundel too!



IMO Fox beats Youngquest hands down, Charlie beats Goldy.





Got anymore?

Orr being better than Isaac John, well having only seen him play in 2 games online & watching DO's slow decline all I would say is "watch this space".



As far as I can see the only player who you've got over us is Chase & if Tim Smith can follow up on his potential (which he will be fully supported in doing by WTW in all areas of his life!) we can even trump you there.



Bring on 2012, bring on the maulings!

No he isn't don't talk wet.





LOL







Craig Huby - in the England team until he got injured, Paul Johnson an average plodder who nobody but Wakefield wanted, you're starting to look silly.







And how has Southern looked in Super League? There's still a chance he could be yet another Aussie flop.







Mellars is a one trick pony, Collis is a good player and who is Walshire? If he was any good he would have been in the first team last year, Arundel is better now than what Shenton was when he was that age.







Your opinion is wrong, Youngquest is faster and a better finisher, Fox is gone - KR didn't want him for a reason and as much as I dislike McGoldrick as a player he offers infinitely more than Ben Cockayne ever will.









Danyy Orr is an organiser, you don't need pace to do that, who is this Isaac John? If he can't organise then he's useless as a scrum half.







You are VASTLY over rating Tim Smith, he's had 1 good year in his career - then he got found out big time...that's why only Wakefield wanted him, if he was any good he would still be in the NRL or playing for a good team.

Gronk: With a reputation like yours I'd think twice before saying someones opinion is "wrong".



I think we're a better team, you think otherwise. Let's let the lads on the field decide.

Re Tim Smith: Do you know anything about the personal life of TS, there have been valid reasons for him not being exactly focused on RL over the past few years. This is a fresh start & tbf if we see 1/2 of that "one good season" he'll rip SL to bits.

I see you've now changed your tune. We were a 'one man band.' I was asking which one man? Your opinion counts for nothing... it's how the TEAM plays and not what you or I or anyone else thinks about which player has the best tackle.

You have to worry about the future generations if G P Fan Club is a teacher

An "outstanding" one too, if we're getting technical.

One who actually does a fair bit of work with CT (not my choice!) & has a good working relationship with their community dept.

Somebody pass Sandal a trumpet!

Don't ask unless you want the full picture.



On a serious note I don't really agree with calling someones vocation into question. Especially when you put as many hours in as people in my game do. Same goes for a great many other people in different walks of life.

Outstanding according to whom?

Re: the player comparison.



Delusions of grandeur at its finest.

Wakey are so close to being a top 6 team don't you know.

Tim Smith can do anything Chase can?



Awww he's had a tough time off the field, so what? Didn't do Rangi any harm.





But yeah,Wakey are deffo going to finish in the top 6, probably make wembley, 1 step from old trafford and man of steel will be split between Motu Tony & ben cockayne.





This time next year, i'll be a millionaire too.
