Wakefield coach Chris Chester threatened players with the sack after their 48-6 Super League loss to St Helens
A week after pushing the champions hard before going down 20-16 at Headingley, Trinity was swept away by them before the break at Warrington, where they trailed 30-0 after conceding six tries in the first half
« I have to take a look at that first half, » he said « We’ve been talking all week trying to do a job on (Alex) Walmsley and he’s done some damage to us
« We were a little flexible until the middle third. They were much harder than us and ran more than us
« The game was lost at halftime and that sums up our season We are still inconsistent We showed last week that we can compete but we had an inept performance tonight »
Chester singled out Matty Ashurst, Tom Johnstone, Kelepi Tanginoa and Jack Croft for their praise, but warned other players may have played out of the squad
“It’s a simple solution,” he said. “We’re just recruiting better quality players and that’s what we’ll be looking to do tomorrow
« There are players who played tonight without a contract and some players who played who are under contract who could be under a lot of pressure
« On the other hand, I think there were eight or nine that broke their guts, but quite a few that let their mates down
« We have to prioritize quality over quantity, which is why we are looking for a high-end half-back and a high-end outside rear. It sounds simple but it’s also a difficult solution because it has a lot to do with it with the budget
