Time 4 a rethink? : Fri Jul 12, 2019 11:41 am  
Not happy that Ryan Hampshire has not committed long term to Wakefield.

The Miller and Brough pairing has failed but we have persisted with it.

Hampshire has many years left to play whereas Brough clearly has not. It would be stupid to sacrifice the young for the old now.

At the same time I also feel for Max Jowett who has given everything for Wakefield but does not seem to be in favour with Chester.

For what it's worth my view is that Jowett at full back and Hampshire at half back are must for the remainder of the season.

Let the underperforming Brough and Miller fight out the other half back role.

I was annoyed when we signed Brough because I knew something like this would happen where sacrifice either Hampshire or Jowitt. Might end up both if it’s true about that Walker from London.

TT - you've obviously not seen us play recently !!
Have to agree with the OP in regard to selection of both RH & MJ. I'm also minded to give Woody a go in the halves ... at least for the games leading up to the Hull fixture.

Jowitt is the better FB imho especially in attack where he creates far more, but all the same, Hampshire has made a chuffing good fist of it! I prefer Hampshire at HB tbh, however, he has one flaw in his game, he needs to learn that when playing at HB he doesn't have to attempt to win the game with every move in every set. Anyone can see that as an individual he's a fast skilful player but to me, he's yet to become a true provider.

Whether he'd still be better at it than the current incumbents is totally subjective but I didn't think we looked any worse with him and Reynolds at 6 and 7 than we do now and there is definitely more future potential in that line-up.

Just my opinion.

I don't think Hampshire has let us down at FB but I have always thought that Jowitt is the better FB. As a Hampshire fan I would also like to see him in the halves BUT at Stand Off. I think Milky needs a rest and fresh start because his form has dipped this season.
