| I thought it was a pretty decent first outing. Some very good defence and a good basis on which to move forward, especially when you bear in mind Quins haven't really had a preseason outing. A few daft penalties given away. The art in this competition is steady progression and peak towards the end of it, not half way through June!
Didn't see the scuffle as was following play, but wasn't surprised Moore was involved. A bit surprised to find out they got red cards rather than yellow, especially as it wasn't a dirty game.
I don't really understand all the whingeing about match day experience. You can get a season ticket (seated) on the 30m mark (either) to watch topclass rugby league for £99! A peeked cap and sunglasses would deal with the problems the sun causes for most people. We come by train from Southend - not the easiet of trips thanks to 'weekend engineering works', and Quins aren't my first love (although they are Mrs ER's) but I thoroughly enjoyed yesterday (a win for Quins would have been better).

| Bought the supporters shirt. Won't be buying the replica unless they bring out a 30 years in London heritage jersey...
Thought the team showed promise but at this stage it's too early to tell.
Looking forward to Warrington...

| Can't understand how people are gauging any positives from that. Wakefield were terrible, we were even worse. No leadership, no creativity, mistakes, poor defence especially on the right hand side. Next weeks game will be a complete humiliation.

| Oliver Wilkes was absolutely terrible. Why is Danny Orr being used as a 3rd prop, and why is Danny Ward playing like he's a stand off? Several players are just not good enough. Ben Jones Bishop is far too good for our team. If we are going to play such a boring brand of rugby then its no surprise people will fall away and crowds will drop instead of rising. I'm getting sick and tired of it tbh, and no longer look forward to a game like I used to because I know exactly what I'm going to get. A performance with no passion, players looking disinterested and McDermott talking complete rubbish post game.

| Have to agree with you listy..
One of the worst games of Rugby League I have attended. Quins were horrible and The Wildcats not much better.
Will still head to the games to get a footy fix, but if I wasnt such a league fan I wouldnt bother. Quins were horrible, I get better dispays watching Queensland Cup.

| I enjoyed it, clearly the weakest squad for many seasons but ill give them 5 games to show what they can do as a team. Wakey are decent and with a defence like that we have plenty to build on as fluency in attack comes with match practice.

Typical rubbish from a fan of a losing team and I fear a know all Aussie by the sound of it. We (Wakefield) were just fine, we won, away from home, that is all we needesd to do. If we don't have to get out of third gear to win then why should we, that as they say is your problem not ours.

You've no chance of making the playoffs with that side.

Know all Aussie right here...
All I did was say that both teams were rubbish, if you're happy with your team to risk losing games by only playing 'as well as they have to on the day' then fine. Great mentality up there in Wakefield.
As I've noticed on this board (by some), in the bar post game, and chatting with the group who I went to the game with we were all of the same opinion. The game was 3rd rate rubbish, neither team looked great with the ball in hand, error rate was horrendous (to be expected at the start of the season). Yes I am now a Quins fan, but I feel that I can actually step back and see the game in its true light without the glaze of a deluded fan.
If you think yesterdays game was a great advertisement for our game, I feel you are a bad judge.

Agree 100%. Our attack, well ... what attack? If Wakey had the sun on their backs like we did first half then Brough would have rained balls down on us like it was the Blitz. Quins, well er no, let's go for the grubber (until 4.30pm when stuck one in the air in the near darkness). Maybe McD was sat in the Lexus to long and hadn't noticed nearly 4000 other people including the Wakey players shielding their eyes with the programmes!?
We may have had a great goal line defence, but I am sorry that will not win us any games if we can't create in attack - and I saw nothing on Saturday to convince me we can score form anywhere outside on the opposition 20m line.
BJB will be the new Will Sharp carting the ball up for the first three tackles. One talent now wasted for another.
BTW who was out man of the match in the WIN text voting?

| I don't know whether it was the WIN text vote, but BJB was announced MOM and Players Player (won 2 bottles of Champagne).

We will just have to wait while September for that, one thing is for sure you certainly will not with that side, and of course we are 2pts nearer the play offs' than you

Previous seasons you have been a decent side, this season not so I'm afraid. You'll be in the bottom 3 with us and your only decent player will finally leave
