Wakefield Trinity • Make or break seasons
Bit dramatic to be honest but you get the idea.
David Fifita: If Dave is to become the Trinity legend most of us thought he was going to be then this is the season to make that happen. The injury was, without doubt, the main issue but we all know that the bopper has not helped himself much. There is time still but this season has the be the rebirth season.
Tom Johnstone: We all know the blight injuries have forced on this lad. However, if he can stay injury-free then Tom still needs to step up a notch if he is to become a truly international player. I think Wane is fair but Tom will have to stand out to be noticed. Put simply, TJ needs to improve is concentration more than anything else. His ability for me is beyond doubt, but to be the best he has to play the full 80, full-on, week in week out and as he is no longer a kid that's exactly what Wane and Chester will be looking for. I'm his biggest fan always have been but I'm not the one he needs to please.
Max Jowitt: Max has finally got recognition and it's been a tough journey for the lad. Max though is not a natural, he's a good player but his skills have been earned. That won't change, if he is to reach the top and stay there he will need to improve almost every game and then maintain it. FB is a congested position in SL, there are a number of similar level players to Max, it will be hard to get noticed and much for him more than most will depend on how the team goes.
Eddie Battye: Eddie has Trinity legend written all over him but at 30 he hasn't got long to prove it.
There are plenty of other players who need to improve or have a point to prove but those four for me are the ones who will have the most impact on how the team goes. For the record, Batch and Crowther need to continue to progress, Josh Wood needs to show he's more than a tackling machine, Westerman needs to keep proving the doubters wrong and so on.
