Well, there is at least 2 David Fifitas and there’s another bloke running around who looks just like him

Them training and them being 100% are two different thing entirely.

And there are no room for excuses, you are out of form, understrength and there’s illness in the camp. You also have a massive game next week. If we can’t beat you full strength on our own patch under those circumstances then we deserve to be in a relegation battle.

The bookies dont think we're going to win this one.
Trinity have 8 points start on the handicap.

Although Shudds may be out of form, they aren't quite as far out as we have been.
Hopefully, Fifita can be the difference

Notice on the Facebook site that Verity the commercial manager has just given birth.

Not trying to points score nor did I know but that might explain the gap in info if others are covering what is a very important job.

Congrats to Verity by the way

I’m pretty sure the club will have got a few months notice of that, plenty of time to bring in some cover

That said, Verity is the commercial manager, she sells Sponsorship and hospitality packages.
She doesn’t do the marketing and they are totally separate things

I realise that but that wasn’t my point.

In a small outfit one person out then people get spread thin so if some one else gets knocked out with say COVID it really goes off line.

I’m not selling it as gospel I’m just suggesting this might be what happened.

I think we all agree there is no logical reason why the club wouldn’t want to publicise a game.

Watson has said all the expected 17 from the squad announced trained today - sorry to disappoint.
You are indeed at almost full strength whilst we are missing our best player this season, our best prop and our best bench player. you keep giving yourselves no room for excuses. I must admit Im not convinced. It depends whether we decide to be the team that turned up against Catalan / Hull in the QF or the team that turned up against Leeds / Warrington.

Well of course it depends what team turns up but that applies to both teams.

If the Trinity team that played Warrington turns up then even your best efforts with your best team this year wouldn’t get you a win. Only Saints have played better RL than that this season.

Problem is that team has gone into hiding.

No vasty- if Warrington had played like they had when they played Wakefield- even Huddersfield would have beaten them playing as they did on Saturday!
They were shocking.

Bit harsh tbh. Gaskell has put no more or less effort in than any other player imo to be bagged.

I do however think he flatters to deceive. A luxury player that would likely have a decent game with a team on the front foot who could carry him to a degree. Trinity are not a club that can afford this type of player. He’s a bit like Gigot for me. Will have a good game once in a blue moon but will for the most part be pretty anonymous. I see him as a player to cover in emergency and that’s all I saw the signing as anyway.

That as been the trouble for the last 3 years bringing in players to cover in emergency instead of players to strengthen the starting 13

Well of course they were, we never beat a good team do we. You really can’t resist can you.

If you think Warrington were were shocking you’re more clueless and arrogant than I thought.

In the first Wire game Warrington made virtually no handling errors and had very good stats but ours were even better, do your research love.

and you cant resist either vastman. You and only you know best. Your posts are often arrogant and full of condescension, not to mention the name calling. Then you have the cheek to call others out. Biggest hypocrite on these boards.
Any time another wakey fan criticises a player, team or coach you jump down their throat but its ok when you do it - then you go all full scale tantrum last week - was hilarious. Especially when it was all mouth and no substance. As fully expected. But then you carry on expecting to command respect
Warrington were poor when they played you. it was there for all to see, and the reaction by the wire fans said it all.

For someone who hates Wakey and has bad mouthed em as much as you, you seem to be on here a bit, can we assume that your holiday is far too boring, or is interacting with Wakey fans far more exciting given there's no life at all on the shudds board.
