With 5 out (6 with Walmsley) most will be expecting Leeds to win this. Though it hurts us we can cover Rodwell with 4 x props. Vagana will need some big drives in the middle.

Agree with what everyone else has said....outstanding performance from the whole team...we kept Leeds pointless for 39 minutes in the first half and then 39 minutes in the second half...it doesn't get much better than that ( And I'm told I've got my mush on the Trinity X and Facebook pages )

Eating humble pie after one match The spine of the team looked great Lino and Truman look like they will give any 6 and 7 a battle in S L. Russell is just a tackling machine and would be happy to see him play at 9 all season .The defence was unbelievable and went up higher when we played with 12 men for part of the last 15 minutes. We did not give any silly penalties away and the completion rate looked high .In the first half thought we played some of the best open rugby I have seen from Wakefield for a long time .If we can play with so much skill and passion for the rest of the season could be interesting season

Russell was my man of the match followed closely by captain M&M. Trueman is genuine quality and I think that will help Lino as he just has to do the simple stuff and leave the game breaking plays to JT. Some very workman like performances too in the trenches Storton was very good as was Croft in less eye catching but tough defensive efforts. The scramble defence and 1% effort areas were the defining difference for me today. A great day to follow Trinity. Cracking atmosphere plenty of overindulgence but nobody misbehaving.

Storton’s performance particularly going forward reminded me of prime Danny Kirmond. Also always nice to see Connor being made to look like a mug.

Jack Croft for me. Seriously changed my mind. Tackled brilliantly and made meters in contact
