How many first choice players were you without?

Very encouraging game for us Fev fans, I'd guess not so much for yourselves.

At least 10 missing. Not going to use that as an excuse as the side that went was still pretty strong.

I don't mind when we get beaten in friendlies it's often a great wake up call which I'd rather get now.

I've always said friendlies mean nowt and although being beaten by Fev or anyone is never great it's still no guide to the season.

I'm sure Belly will be on all doom and gloom but that's what you expect. You'd think we were world beaters against Leeds - point is both results are probably misleading.

Well decided to go along at the last minute but It was a very poor display I thought. The starting 13 was a reasonable team and was out played in every department.

There has been a lot of discussion about getting another hooker. There was a bloke on the field for fev who I thought had a great game and he's one of our own grown, Mattie Wildie.

A few but a few played aswell well played Fev

Good lad is Mattie, big Wakefield fan.

Well, the lose at Fev means as much as the wins at Leeds and Dewsbury, and against Cas.

Well done Fev, I hope they have another good season

The result doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things but the performance was a little concerning. Yes we weren't at full strength but we had plenty of our first team squad playing a lot of minutes and i'd have expected a bit better that what we saw. Still better to get it out of the way now and credit to Fev on their performance.

I'd rather 70% effort and no injuries during pre-season, than 100% effort and picking up injuries

Score really flattered Wakefield. Fev were sharp and very entertaining. Plenty of enthusiasm.
With the exception of Huby and possibly Mazive the Wakefield team couldn't be d and just took it in turns to fumble and give cheap penalties away. BJB and Gibson had real defensive shockers.
Miller had no positive contribution whatsoever. His last pass of the game reminded me of a bride throwing her corsage over her head.
Tupou and Lyne must've loved it though.
Very tough 80 minutes to watch for the travelling fans.

Talking to a mate after the game and I agree with what he said which was Fev treated it as a league game as Wakey seemed to treat it as the friendly it was, if that sounds right

I hope Fev will be up there, hopefully above KR, well done Fev.
