It will bring in more revenue allowing the club to spend closer to the salary cap, it will also have upgraded training and video review facilities giving the team better preparation

Seriously , they've not got room for a big telly ATM ?

Full Time 6:36 - a cruel scoreline, given all the excellent work Trinity put in across the 80 minutes.

played well today wigan, but its still a worry that the forwards don't make enough yards and our kicking is poor saints will murder us if we can't get past halfway.

That final try should have been disallowed. Field's boot touched the side line before he grounded the ball.

Ah! Let's look at that again then. Can you show us?

I'm interested in that drive, that rush to judgment, that is so prevalent in our society. We all know that pleasurable rush that comes from condemning, and in the short term it's quite a satisfying thing to do, isn't it?

Bit of a rude scoreline for Wakefield but opverall a fair result.

A question for the Wiganers on this board

If Jai Field and Bevan French were both fit in 2021 would Adrian Lam still be your coach today ?

I have been mulling that over, and I suspect the answer would be yes.

Depends if it meant we won something. I suspect we wouldn’t have done because Saints would’ve still won the double and there’s no way they’d have kept him on after 3 years without a trophy, even if things might’ve been more entertaining.
 

A good coach to me improves players and Lam couldn’t say he improved many players in his time with us. Even 2020 was basically all effort and French getting us points but nobody bar Powell played at the best consistently or took significant steps forward.

 

Under Peet so far this season, multiple players have improved and young guys have taken steps forward. At different ends of the spectrum, Leuluai and Smithies really stand out to me. Leuluai is playing better than I’ve seen him play for 5 years or more and Smithies is really impressing me and after stagnating under Lam, he’s now back on an upward curve. 
 

Peet has been so impressive so far. The connection he’s building between the players and the fans is really special.

Indeed, perhaps the laughing emoticon you received could be removed now.

I agree that for the optimists and wishful thinkers on here it appears that the foot was in touch. However, as a neutral, I have to say that the freezeframe is not definitive proof. We'd need to see a ground level horizontal view if we were to be sure that the curvature of his boot meant it was not actually in contact with the white line.

“Optimists and wishful thinkers” 🤣🤣🤣

I love it! But surely it warranted a VR look?, even you would concede that John?

Or would you?!?!

Yes of course I would, just to be proven right. 😀😀

The thing is, that a 2d image of a 3d situation can be misleading. Need a plan view, a front elevation and a side elevation and a set of feeler gauges to be sure.😀

What is clear is that OF has a massive TV. I’d bet he has to stand in the garden and look in through the window to see it in focus. 

Or maybe he just needs to get out more.

He's just getting up after having grounded the ball 👍
