Sun 16th Apr: SL: Wakefield Trinity v Leigh Leopards KO 15:00

[John Drake]

Discuss Wakefield Trinity v Leigh Leopards here.

[sweaty craiq]

Word is Leigh have a second ticket allocation of 500 as the initial 900 had gone.

[muckymunksy]

Leigh by 20 

[Jim Prendle]

Leigh by a decent margin.

I would be surprised if Wakefield win a game this season.

[DavidM]

Put me on the spot I’d say Leigh 

[Cw25]

Wakefield 12-30 Leigh

[Harry Stottle]

Oh Wakey are going to be up for this just as they were last week at Cas, with just a little bit better execution on the final pass I think they could have very easily  beat Cas, I wouldn't say this is Wakefield's "last chance saloon" game they have been favs for the drop more than once and then gone and done the Harry Houdini bit.

Wakey fans, have you any player's back to strengthen this week?

Still take Leigh to win it, by 1 point will do me.

Don’t think any of the injured players are back.  Last chance saloon was our pre season lack of recruitment.  Can’t see us winning we’ll be lucky to score.

On paper your pre season first 17 and squad didn't look that bad, losing becomes a habit that is hard to shake off, you need to get a win on the board pretty quickly or things could go from bad to worse, you really need to win this one, if it gets away from you it will be hard to pull back, but no disrespect meant I prefer a Leigh victory.

How many points do they get for that then?

[meast]

Wouldn't be surprised to see WakeHuddersfield win this, Leigh are already happy with their lot it seems and happy to finish above Wakefield or Hull

Really, I think you are very misguided how do you come to that bit of wisdom, I would be far happier to finish above Huddersfield.

They were unlucky against SRD. So even teams out of form can snatch the odd victory. 

[Davo5]

Must win game for Wakey,but they are a rabble so Leigh should be too strong.

Don’t think they get any but it’s good for the game and for Wakefield.

2 points if their team wins and a good following.

[Agbrigg]

In boxing parlance ,you could say Wakey may have a punchers chance. Trouble is, I don't even think we know how to punch

Neither are Huddersfield based on results so far

[phiggins]

A game against a team without a win, were a good performance and a win by any margin makes life a lot easier for Leigh…

Nailed on Wakefield win.
 

As I said in another thread, this has the Widnes games in 2017 feel about it. 

[Wakey Til I Die]

Genuinely believe we’ll sneak one at some point. It has to be this week otherwise we are cooked so with Tanginoa & Bowden due back i’ll go Wakey by 4.

Are Wakefield still full time? Watching highlights of them, they look like the London Broncos in their final days of Super League. Nominally professional... but basically with neither the skills nor the physicality of a proper professional side. I think they would finish bottom in NSW Cup.

Thread is to " discuss Wakefield and Leigh " , the potential attendance is part of that discussion 

I'd be much happier if we had another win or two before playing Trinity , but that's not to be , we can beat anybody and lose to anybody

There’s also a pre-game tournament for community clubs and an offer on kids tickets. The Western terrace could be pretty busy on Sunday.

So you reckon 4th place is Huddersfield's lowest finishing position with me saying I would prefer to finish above your lot?
