As a Wakefield fan I thought it was a pretty even game but the difference between the teams was sandow and gidley who were a class above.

I thought the ref was pickey which didn't help the flow of the game.

Thought atkins had a bit of a stinker but I would gladly have him back if you guys want rid.

I was pleasantly surprised with Wakefield's effort after a slow start they showed plenty of effort and spirit opening us up a few times, they showed a few nice touches scoring good tries if you can stay clear of serious injuries a decent season beckons, both teams have improvement in them and they will have to as on the night it was not the most fluent of games.

Atkins as on another thread tends to split opinion it's early so I'm prepared to give him time to recover his form, Atkins must realise there is pressure on him to retain his place so it will be up to him to keep it, he's quite durable, strong tending to be more of a finisher rather than a creative centre.

The young lad we signed from Trinity Will Daggers is he a centre in the making? I will watch his progress with interest as from your board last year he was highly thought of.

Think that Daggers chappy is a half.

Cheers ghf just looked it up the academy have Will Dagger at full back H183cm W78kg just seventeen so still growing, but played half against Widnes, it will be interesting to see how he develops and where he settles.

Dagger is a fullback/ winger but long term injuries to Stanway (last years 7) and Moore (last years 9) has led to enforced shuffling of positions.
