Boxing Day | Wakefield Trinity (H) : Tue Nov 19, 2019 9:47 pm  

Very interesting looking at the squad that is already back in training for 2020, looks like just Cuthbertson, Hurrell, Martin, Albert and Handley are missing.

Why is Cuthbertson missing?

Is the GB women's tour done and dusted now? He was part of the coaching team for that I think.

Let the players have a Christmas with their families instead of playing on Boxing Day. Its not like it even draws much of a crowd these days.

10189 was last years attendance which wasn’t bad at all

I haven’t been to one for a few years now because I can’t get a pass out away from the brood on Boxing Day.

I remember seeing a few young lads making their mark in these games though, I always think it provides an opportunity for someone coming through to get noticed and stake a claim.

I miss watching Academy games before first team games with fish and chips on the terraces too. Hopefully see some “A” team this season because I’m interested how this last U19s group develops.

Lots to look forward to next year.

Well if you think 10,000 paying fans isn’t worth it then you are even dafter than I thought.

I may make an increasingly rare appearance at Headingley at the game this year, mainly because it's one of the few times I'm up north and I'd like to see what the new stadium is like, plus my son is showing a surprising interest in watching RL.

I’d be in favour of moving the game to the nearest Saturday or Sunday afternoon for this reason. Sat 28th or Sun 29th
