Old Frightful Posted July 24, 2022 Author Share Posted July 24, 2022 Saints 20m out... Wellsby nails the DG. Trin 12 Saints 13. Full tarm. "When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out. We didn't even know who was going to play what - we passed around all the instruments until we found what we were comfortable with. I wasn't comfortable with any of them so I became the singer."

Jughead Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Tough on Trinity, as they’ve been the better side for much of the game but good sides get games won and Saints have done that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunbar Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 That's a fantastically gutsy effort from Wakefield and a tough way to lose.

The Mighty Trin Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 It's the first time in 21 seasons I feel this could be it. Really hard to take that, cannae fault the boys for efforts. Disappointing to hear the Saints fans on Radio Leeds shouting your going down....I suppose in reality we're favourites to do so but very poor from the scousers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Frightful Posted July 24, 2022 Author Share Posted July 24, 2022 On the last play, sounds like the ball went to Lomax who apparently dropped it presumably backwards, regathered it and passed to Wellsby who got the dg. Whether the error from Lomax caused the Wakey defence to pause or not I don't know but I wonder if that allowed more time for YJW. Sad for Trin, sounded like they deserved something from that game. 1 "When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out.

Agreed, I remember in 2006 when we put Castleford down there was none of that. Bad taste from Saints, its always gonna hurt losing in that manner. Anyways hopefully they will brush themselves down and go again next week. I took us +18 at 4/7, didn't have the balls at 10/11 +14 in hindsight a good bet. But of course a consolation means nothing. Would rather had the 2pts or even the important 1 if SL wouldn't of changed the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WakefieldCityLoyal Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Generally ended our sets well, played with passion and commitment, done that against Toulouse and HKR we’d be in a better position. Should have won, picked up more injuries hopefully the lads can pick themselves up. Up the Trin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faithful1865 Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 I think golden point is an awful way to decide the outcome. A drop goal before the 80 minutes are up is a different matter. When two teams have battled it out for the full 80 why should they have this lottery to decide a winner. A point each today and Wakey could have gone above TO. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Toulouse had to win both of their home games against Salford and FC to stay up as 5 of their last 6 games are away from home and their only other home game is against Catalan who will be up for that. While we can't predict individual results, I believe the fact that Wakey play 3 of their last 6 games at home will be a telling factor. Especially as some of their opponents will be either safe and switched off or have half an eye on the finals. 1 "The history of the world is the history of the triumph of the heartless over the mindless." — Sir Humphrey Appleby.

DimmestStar Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Wakefield Trinity played very well today and deserved something out of the game. The two goal kicks from Lino which both hit the post were crucial. Even so to get to 80 minutes at 12-12 they deserved a point and to be deprived of it and possibly their league status by the gimmick of golden point was a travesty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next week against Hull and Catalans at home are the best bets. That would leave Wakefield needing to win 3 from 7 and if they did they would fully deserve to stay up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnh1 Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 This is the reality now. Teams safe in the top 6 will start to rest and rotate players. There will be some strange results coming up. Which teams it will benefit is another matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Very tough luck on Wakey , obviously a great effort and hopefully for them they can carry that effort forward . I really detest Golden Point and see it as completely redundant in a league format . Utterly fabricated gimmicky tripe . Fight it out like that for 80 , shake hands 1 point each for your efforts . What’s wrong with that ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
