It was great to see him underline his undoubted potential with a two-try performance as Trinity provided another twist in the Super League survival battle by winning 32-6 at Castleford.
It came on the same night Toulouse lost 30-6 at home to Hull. Let’s be honest, who saw those two results coming?. It means that Wakefield climbed off the bottom of the table and left the French side two points adrift in the relegation spot.
What’s more, they now have a points difference three better than Toulouse, rather than 47 worse.
Of course nothing has been decided yet and there are six games still to go - and looking at the respective schedules, it’s tough to say whose is harder.
For Wakefield, it’s Catalans and Wigan at home, Hull away, Hull KR at home, then St Helens and Huddersfield away.
