When your luck is out, your luck is out - just ask Wakefield’s Mason Lino.
The Samoa scrum-half takes his side to Castleford on Friday looking to end a 17-match losing streak against their derby rivals. Sat bottom of Super League with just seven fixtures remaining, they are in dire need of a result. But Trinity fans will fear they are doomed to relegation if last weekend’s gut-wrenching loss is anything to go by.
They were 12-0 up against champions St Helens having put in one of their best displays this term. But the Super League leaders hit back to draw level late on and force golden point extra-time when Jack Welsby’s drop-goal delivered Saints glory. Trinity players were heartbroken, not least Lino who had agonisingly seen both his touchline conversion attempts hit a post.
