EVERYBODY needs to get behind Scott and the rest of the team tomorrow.
After all we are supposed to be Trinity SUPPORTERS.
There will be enough pain just dealing with a full strength Hull FC.

Come on Trin !

Just to add my two pennyworth, I have been very happy with Scott Grix this season, player of the year for me.

Scott Grix is the only Wakey Trinity player in the 2017 season top ten [he is currently 10th position] of the Albert Goldthorpe Medal table, this is the equivalent to the NRLs "Dally M" medal. Just shows how consistent he is. Has been voted either 1st, 2nd or 3rd best player in most matches he has played for us this season. Those posters giving him grief should hang their heads in shame.

I prefer Jowitt to Grix but that's just a personal opinion, I have no problem with CC having a different opinion and will support whatever team he selects.
Two things though, firstly, those saying we wouldn't be in the position we are without Grix are probably doing Max an injustice. Had he started the same games Grix has this year then I think we would be in the same position, although clearly we will never know.
Secondly and mainly, i would hate to think that not being played this year has pushed Max out. I know there were some offers for him last year (Warrington was one I think?) and if a club came at the end of the season and he wanted to leave as he wants to be playing regular then who could blame him really. It really would be sad to see 1 or 2 years of Grix potentially cost us a decade+ of Jowitt playing for us.

The sooner Jowitt is back in, the better for me and that has been my opinion since it was announced that we'd signed Grix. Max put in some great performances in attack last year and was never responsible for game changing howlers. How could he have developed if given the chance this year?
Last Thursday was an example of chickens coming home to roost.

Here we are a week on and the Grix bashers are still at it. For gods sake give it a rest and stop crucifying the man. It's a sad day when the coach has to say he's appalled and doesn't want to be associated with some of our supporters. As anyone stopped to think how all this could be affecting Max. He has openly said how much help he has received from Grix. It must put him in an awkward position when they train together. There's an almighty important game tonight and Scott probably doesn't know what type of reception he will receive.

What about brining Patrick Ah Van in to teach Tom Johnston about wing play?

Scapegoating at it's worst.

I'll think of something a bit more eloquent when I get time.

I don't think CC could bring Jowitt in even if he wanted to, the lad has barely played, will be miles of match sharpness so to throw him into a key pressure game would be a massive ask.
