2 points.

And we still won the LLS, whilst confirming Warrington as 11th place - honestly the best result all around

Appreciate your post - YOU at least know we had players out too - it's the press I was knocking!
Anyway you're right we do have some player in Murphy and I'm sure you'll understand we'd like to keep him a lot longer!

That's good multi tasking

Just to be clear, Saints were missing;

Welsby
Hopoate Hurrell Percival Grace
Lomax Dodd
Walmsley Roby Lees
Mata’utia Batchelor
Knowles

Sironen Foster Paasi Sumner

J Sambou Martyn Simm Hill

Gilford and Lane (along with Corkill and Archer) are the academy group below Baxter/Delaney/Moss and putting them up against the likes of Murphy was a fools errand. But with Simm/Sambou/Hill injured what can you do? Our biggest issue this year is that our reserves level side has been decimated and we have had to go younger and younger in search of replacements.

That’s not to take away from Wakefield - whom I totally get had players out too, were good value for the win. Have some player in Murphy, very much hope there’s a deal to be done as our replacement for Grace

Wakefield had Johnstone
Tupou
Lyne
Kershaw
Fifita
Hood
Whitbread
Tanginoa
Batchelor
Pitts
All missing, but not mentioned on Radio Merseyside or Sky

Lino and Arona too !!

Really enjoyable game and you couldn't really fault any of the Wakefield guys even though the tactic of throwing the ball around a bit does send to cause the occasional error. Plenty to cheer and appreciate from fringe players such as Shaw, Sid, Evans and Bowes.

Evans is one I'd like to retain.

I like the look of Evans but we have Murphy, Kershaw, Taufua and Lineham next year signed up. That for me is fine. I’m already wondering where Taufua will fit in next year with the way Kersh has been playing on that right wing.
