I actually think we could win tomorrow but unfortunately I always do the day before.

Full strength Hull v patched up Trinity.
IF Hull dont win, there really would be something wrong.

Chester cannot be hammered for Trinity getting beaten tomorrow, unless we capitulate in the 2nd half (again).
Win or lose, we have to play for 80 minutes and be committed to the cause - minimum.

Yes, we al want a win but, most can cope if the effort is there and we dont crumble like a pack of cheap biscuits in the 2nd half.
Hull are a big side, with some real quality.
The league table is already starting to take shape, with 4 winless clubs, 4 unbeaten clubs and 3 who have just one victory.
Leigh or Salford will gain their first win in this round but, for Trinity, right now, we need try and be competitive, which will stand us in good stead when we play those in the bottom half of the league.
A victory against Hull would be a huge bonus. Let's hope for a miracle.

Therein lies the problem. We shouldn’t have to settle for the bare minimum.

Effort was good but too many players out and we played dumb at times but theres positives to take

So at the start of the season we had a great squad now we have 5 or 6 players out where patched up.. i remember the pearman days and just after the money issues came to light we where at home to saints cant remember how many so called stars where out due to not been payed...i remember watching the lads warm up looking and thinking wow cricket score on its way and while not a cricket score but a least a 16-20 points difference but not to saints yes to us (ryan hudson had a blinder).so my point with any patched up side with the right structure thers always a chance

Hull don't have as many missing as you do, but we are still without Reynolds and Ma'u from our first 17, Brown who played last week is banned, Matongo is injured and don't forget Shaul is out for half the season. Throw in the fact that we played 90 minutes 5 days ago, we really aren't full strength. In fact if I was a Wakefield fan I'd be looking at Hull and thinking that they are vulnerable if we can put in an 80 minute performance.

Considering where you were 2 or 3 seasons ago I'd say that mindset shows a real lack of ambition.

Must admit I tend to agree with you, we are not that patched up that we shouldn’t go into the game with a reasonable expectation of a win.

Even full strength we wouldn’t be the favourites to win but that’s a million miles from abject surrender.

It’s a universal truth of the game, if the 17 players want to play then we have a game, a game anyone could win.

What’s frustrating fans is we have seen no evidence so far other than the Leeds game that they do actually want to play or at least play for the full game.

42 - 12 to Hull for me with Hull running riot for a thirty minute spell at some point in the game

The unpredictable Wakefield down the years of losing easily to say Salford (no disrespect intended) then beat st’s the week after are gone. We are now predictably collapsing at 50 minutes with a team that is more then capable of competing. All you want is your team to compete and play an entertaining brand of rugby, nice fast flowing attack and competent aggressive defence. Our attack mirrors that of a newly formed year 7 team where odd player just does off the cuff stuff to score and the rest of the time it’s just getting wanged around in hope of something coming off. I’ve seen a lot weaker sides down the years give very good accounts of themselves, let’s hope this one can tonight. I’m not expecting a win, just a better overall 80 minute performance

if it was 40 minutes we might have a chance!
In reality a Hull win has to be on the cards but I'll very happily eat humble pie.
