Discuss Wakefield Trinity v St Helens here.

(Stick to discussing THIS game, please).

[Agbrigg]

Some of you may think my prediction is far fetched, but I do think we will score at least a point

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Saints 1/5 odds to win same as Salford last week surprisingly. 

Wakey get +12 on the handicap which looks nowhere near enough margin.

Sure, but why mention it on this thread specifically? 

Not impossible Trin could win this...just highly unlikely.

42-6 Saints 

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Saints by 30.

[Saint Toppy]

Saints should hopefully get a few more players back this week. Lees is definately back, Hurrell should be back given he could have played last week but the club decided to not risk him and give him another weeks recovery. Sironen having a fitness test on Friday and may also return but given his recurring hamstring issues I suspect they may also give him more time until they're absolutely sure he's fit.

[Father Ted]

Saints by a lot!

[WakefieldCityLoyal]

If we start well we may have a chance, if Saints start well our heads will go down and they’ll probably put a big score on us.  
 

Up the Trin 

[PREPOSTEROUS]

I'll be amazed if we score a point, there's a record to be had!

When do you reckon the 2 drop goals are going over?

When Lineham dropped that aimless kick from Austin, to be more precise.

Saints to win by 20 and Wellens to 'have an opinion ' about summat or other.

[Wakey Til I Die]

Saints by as many as they can be bothered with. 

[Saint Toppy]

Realistically this is the last chance Saints will have to close the points difference gap with Wigan & Catalans so it will be interesting to see whether Wellens changes tactics to really go for it. Their last 3 games are against Leigh, Wire & Hull so likely to be closely fought matches.

Saints need 1 more win to guarantee a top 4 finish, they need to win the next 2 to guarantee a top 3 finish, and probably need to win all 4 remaining games and rack up at least 1 big score to get a top 2 finish.

Will be a comfortable Saints win next week.

Wakefield weren't great against Castleford and although I've not seen the match, a 20-0 loss at Salford suggests they were poor last week too.

If they don't up their game, I'd expect a Saints win by between 20 or 30.

I know we're supposed to stick to this match but Castleford playing on Saturday could be important. If they win, I think Wakefield give up. If they get a hiding, Wakefield will sense an opportunity.

This is the smart bet.

Lino still in the squad, expect another nilling.

Yeah not the big changes we were told to expect. Same same old I’m afraid!

Quite honestly Morris, there is nothing much he could change in reality we don't have the players or squad strength. Whichever team we turn out out Sunday will make little difference, Saints are too good 

[Johnny Ringo]

After watching the Wakey v Cas match the other week then St Helens will win very comfortably, there could be a Try fest on the cards against the bottom club up against a top 3 side who are on a roll. 

Wakey 6 - 34 Saints
