Wakefield are in the top six sides in the northern hemisphere and have been for the last three years so to say they are not very good is a bit disingenuous. We all have off days.

That really isn’t saying a lot. The standard of super league is poor so to be one of the top 6 sides over that period isn’t that difficult. Losing twice to London is absolutely disgraceful.

Yep, vital win for London, they certainly have the hex over Trinity, shame they shipped those late points, could be crucial at the end of the season.

The only correct thing you’ve stated in this thread!

To concede 42 twice to the worst team in the league is an embarrassment. It’s so us though...following on from comments on the cup quarter final draw thread...we just can’t seem to perform as well in games we’re expected to win.

No excuses, no ref bashing...it was a diabolical performance...just wait for the stats for completion rate first half...

Walking back to my mate's flat and even though we won, i feel really deflated..... A full 80 minute performance is needed next week...... The last 15 today wasa shambles

We'll you can't count this seasons as it's only half way through and no trophies handed out yet, so in last 3 complete seasons the following have won ore completed in finals.

Wigan 2 grand final wins one Cc final
Warrington 2 grand finals 2 challenge cups
Leeds 1 grand final
Hull 2 challenge cups
Catalans 1 challenge cup
Cas 1 grand final 1 Lls
Saints 1 Lls

Wakefield not made playoffs in last 3 seasons, got to one semi final 3 years ago and got destroyed.

So not in top 6 sides of last 3 (& half) years. Top sides get to finals win trophies or compete in play offs and semi finals regularly.

Wakefield aren’t a top side. Only their fans think they are.

They are the best of a bad bunch just below the top sides. They just need to kick on somehow and break through that ceiling

I agree, it wasn’t me who said they are top 6 originally but even if they were top 6 over that period it’s nothing to shout about especially when you consider they haven’t come close to winning a trophy.

Shouldn't that be some of their fans?

Personally I'm under no illusions regarding Trinity's position in the R.L. hierarchy, how many points do they need to be safe from relegation?
