Wakefield Trinity Rugby Captain Mike McMeeken Abruptly Depart From Team Due To His….

Ben McNamara and Lachlan Lam appear to be striking up a very interesting and fruitful partnership. Both were excellent here on Sunday afternoon.

 

O’Brien brings a level of measure to Leigh that perhaps McNamara nor Lam do, however. Three very good halves, but only two can play.

 

Leigh’s overseas recruitment is Super League’s best

There can surely be no questioning that. Every time the Leopards go overseas, they almost certainly always nail it and sign a top player.

 

All of their overseas men were good here in different ways. David Armstrong is devastating in broken play, Tesi Niu is such a handful and Joe Ofahengaue, the latest mid-season arrival at the Leopards, was arguably the best player out there.

 

They do it better than most. Castleford fans can perhaps be as excited about that as Leigh fans by the way, as it’s Chris Chester who signed most of those players

as 18th man yet again.

 

Oldham, as revealed by Love Rugby League, are admirers of Charnley for 2026. But could he yet be tempted to look elsewhere in the immediate term for game-time?

 

Mike McMeeken has to be in England’s 17

Wakefield have had injuries throughout the pack all year and to say their captain has put his hand up and taken the extra responsibility on the chin would be an understatement.

 

McMeeken has been an absolute colossus and is up there with Herman Ese’ese as the best middle in the competition. He was again sensational on Sunday afternoon.

If he’s playing like this come October, he’ll be in Shaun Wane’s squad. He should also be in the 17.

Who plays half-back alongside Lachlan Lam?

It’s a real issue that’s going to become even trickier for Adrian Lam next weekend when Gareth O’Brien returns.
