What did others think about his contribution? He went well imo. I reckon all the players that where rested yesterday will be back Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All except Paul Sykes ..... I am hearing that he will be out for some time! ... Massive loss for us!!... For me he is our best tackler and most creative player. The experiment of Knowles at 6 for me has not really worked and if he plays there on Friday I fear the worst .... What has Brown done wrong?? ..... admittedly he is not spectacular but he is quietly effective.... Or can we pick up a loan deal until Sykes is fit!! I know good spare halves are not in great abundance but there must be another Danny Richardson out there somewhere!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that if he's not available Brown would offer the best option at half back but Im even more worried about our right side defence without Paul. Watching the Heath match again last night you can see how poor we are defensively out that side... No doubt Batley will have spotted that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind side johnny Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 According to LE Wakefield have recalled both Annakin and Hooley as cover for their injuries. I know that I am prejudiced but I wouldn't trust certain people at that club further than I can kick them. We will definitely be looking at a weakened team on Friday and Batley have something to prove. It will be a hard game to predict the outcome of; let's hope that attracts a few more fans, out of interest if nothing else. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re not. Any team beating Widnes can beat a Sykes-less Dewsbury, especially if Annakin is missing too I will travel in hope rather than expectation (mind. I always do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myview Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Richardson has proven that he can replace Annakin. He came off the bench at Thatto and played well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
