Wakefield thrash Salford to equal record win

Betfred Super League Wakefield (30) 72 Tries: Walmsley 2, McMeeken, Jowitt, Faatili 2, Lino, Scott, Rourke, Nikotemo, Lingard 2, Pitts Goals: Jowitt 10 Salford (0) 10 Tries: Vaughan, Macdonald Goals: Brierley Wakefield Trinity equalled their biggest Super League win with a 13-try thrashing of beleaguered Salford Red Devils. In-form Trinity took full advantage of some dreadful Salford defence to claim a top-six place as Lachlan Walmsley scored twice, and Mike McMeeken, Max Jowitt, Caius Faatili and Mason Lino all went over to establish a 30-0 half-time lead. Salford had some respite as Jonny Vaughan and Nene Macdonald replied in the second half but home debutant Ellis Lingard scored twice and Cameron Scott, Josh Rourke, Seth Nikotemo, Jay Pitts and Faatili again all cut through a non-existent visiting rearguard. The success equalled the home side's 72-10 win over Hull FC in 2018, which was their biggest win in the competition. Defeat left Salford, who have lost seven on the bounce and mired in financial trouble, rooted to bottom spot in Super League. The Red Devils have had a torrid time this season, losing several of their top players due to their ongoing off-field problems as well as injuries to Jayden Nikorima and Ethan Ryan. Castleford Tigers' decision to recall forward George Hill meant they could only raise an 18-man squad for Sunday's trip across the Pennines. A Trinity side which is on a roll after hammering Warrington Wolves was not about to show them any mercy and with a re-hashed Salford backline, which had Macdonald at full-back, struggling to contain their opponents, they kept up a point-a-minute tally for most of the first half. A moment of slackness from Lino handed Vaughan a try gift for a Salford side which has not scored more than 16 points in their current losing streak, but Trinity hit back as Scott latched on to Jowitt's grubber kick to restore the 30-point margin. Macdonald and Chris Hankinson both left a high kick to each other to give Rourke the easiest try he will ever score and Nikotemo added another. With a fourth win in five games in the bag, Trinity coach Daryl Powell blooded 18-year-old Lingard, and his try took them past 50 points. Macdonald marked his own 200th appearance with a try in a rare moment of relief for the visitors, but Pitts capped off his 150th Trinity appearance with his first try of the season and Australian prop Faatili, who signed a new three-year deal this week, made it two tries in each of the last three games. Lingard had the final say with a try which matched Wakefield's record mark. Wakefield: Rourke; Walmsley, Hall, Scott, Johnstone; Jowitt, Lino; McMeeken, Smith, Faatili, Croft, Nikotemo, Pitts. Interchanges: Vagana, Cozza, Myers, Lingard Salford: Macdonald; Connell, Marsters, Vaughan, Hankinson; Brierley, Morgan; Ormondroyd, Davis, Makin, Warren, Stone, Shorrocks. Interchanges: Foster, Sangare, Wilson, Chan Referee: Liam Moore.

Basketball committee rails against MOV Margin of Victory and neutral locations for state quarterfinal games were the two main topics of discussion during Wednesday's virtual MIAA Basketball Committee meeting. Much of the meeting was spent discussing options for altering the margin of victory cap, which is set at 10 points. 'Our committee suggested 1 [point max MOV] but that hasn't been supported by the [Tournament Management Committee],' said Dover-Sherborn boys' basketball coach Rick Grady , one of the coaches' reps on the committee. 'Maybe we could suggest a smaller number than 10? We've heard of situations where teams didn't foul at the end of games if you're down 4 or 5 and are afraid of losing by 10.' Advertisement Whitman-Hanson athletic director Bob Rodgers , a vocal opponent of the MOV, expressed reticence to changing the number on the fly. 'I will grant that the results have been OK,' Rodgers said. 'I wouldn't want to change it so the results aren't OK, but we're still dealing with MOV. Until it's fixed, I'd rather not touch it, even though I used to be a proponent for making it 1.' Related : Always pragmatic, St. Mary's AD and girls' basketball coach Jeff Newhall stepped in. 'It's a waste of time to try to reduce it to 1, it's not going to happen,' he warned. 'But maybe two possessions plus one? Whether that's 5 or 7? There may be some changes we could make, like in lacrosse where they changed it from 10 to 7.' MIAA liaison Peter Smith explained that the numbers have been crunched with MOV set at 5 and 7, noting that switching to an MOV of 7 would have resulted in the same boys' basketball teams making the tournament in all five divisions, although their seedings would have shifted. On the girls' side, two teams would have moved into the playoff brackets, with two teams moving out across five divisions. 'I've seen [the data] at 5 and 7 and there's very little change,' Newhall said, also noting that running the data with a small boost for wins also produced negligible changes. Related : Advertisement The committee decided to review data of every possible MOV between 1 and 10 before reconvening in the fall to craft a proposal for the TMC. Last fall, the committee voted unanimously for neutral sites in the Round of 8, but were denied by the TMC. But after hockey's quarterfinals were moved to neutral sites, there was hope on the basketball committee that the TMC would reconsider. 'I'm optimistic it could change,' said Newhall. 'It's on the [TMC] docket.' For those data-lovers out there: The 2024-25 MIAA basketball season featured 6,993 regular-season games, followed by 417 tournament games. On the boys' side, 58.4 percent of teams qualified for the tournament, while 62 percent of the girls' teams reached the playoffs. 7.
