| Quote: northernbloke "Good game plan from wardy, target the big blokes in the middle when attacking.
Wakey have some big fellas, which actually was there down fall today I think, broncos fitness and agility paid off in the conditions and the fast pitch.
Well done Danny
Excellent completion rate.'"
Yep, Wakefield didn't have too much once their big fellas were worn down. Their great start was penalty assisted and turns out it flattered them.

| Well done on a good win today, very well deserved. Wakefield were well and truly shown up and shown to be lacking fitness, a concern I've had with them through preseason.
Good luck for the rest of the season

Which bus was the ref on
That's a better strike rate than your normal fare

| Egg b. London played the right game today, soon as fifita came on first 3 drives were straight in his face.
Danny Brough went missing a bit and stuck to form getting himself sent to the bin. You have a big pack who withthe new 8 sub rule suffered today and will struggle against more mobile teams.
Penalty count was actually 5 a piece until the last 3 minutes where london gave away another 3 defending the line!

| NB they scored 2 scores from penalties early in the first half plus one when we turned the ball over. Its about context not just numbers

The big pack isn't the problem, it's that they are an unfit big pack that's the problem. They've had the same issue for the past couple of seasons, it takes a good 8 weeks from the first game for the pack to get themselves into any kind of shape, and they look in the worst shape I've seen them in the last 3 years. Towards the middle to back end of last season, the whole pack were doing 30+ min stints, but at the start they are slow and lazy

| Those idiot Wakefield fans who let off the firework, ripped out the seats and abused the touch judge. Let themselves and their club down.

| Wq, you conveniently failed to mention our first try came off the back of a penalty! So did a couple other of our tries! It was the same for both teams.
So in context actually pretty even. And am not backing the officials on this just stating what happened.

It's kind of the point of penalties! They either get you direct points from the kick, or put you in a better attacking position with a full set of tackles
It's disappointing when you don't get something off the back of a penalty

Indeed..............but 3 penalties at the start of the game, giving one side a 12 point cushion is a tad different from the "tit for tat" scenario that you and the useless troll, NB are alluding to. 12 - 0 down is a big mountain to climb
I other news....frm the BBC
Quote: Egg Banjo "Wakefield head coach Chris ChesterWhat an utter ........he was out-coached....he should just admit it!

| Dog, get yr facts right 3 penalties at the start of the game resulted in 2 tries for wakey one try for us, and it was actually over a 17 min period. Broncos second try on 25 mins was also straight from a penalty,sounds pretty balanced to me.
Buzza, agree lots of tries come of back of penalties, but mentioning ones against us and conveniently forgetting the ones for us is interesting.
My point was the count was pretty even at 5 a piece until the last few minutes, those last 3 virtually every team would have done the same in that position at that point of the game
