I think I'm the first Wire fan to say this, but heartfelt congratulations on that performance last night. It was a great opener to the season.

A new coach, new players, new Wakefield. Looked to be in good shape across the field.

Looking forward to our matches, hoping for more competitive games compared to the last couple of seasons.

Agar seems to have got you into the right gear.

You should all be holding your heads high. Keep it up.

No he is not but the poster who said this is a Cas fan, so don't worry about it

I know you weren't being negative - it's sometimes force of habit amongst Trinity fans to perhaps be over cautious on occasions. I do it myself instead of enjoying the moment, we are like over protective parents (which I am also one)

I think cautious optimistic is fine at this stage. Who wouldn't be after watching our team play with heart, fire and determination. I've spent many a year watching many a game at Belle Vue and me and my dad have been looking down Doncaster Road shaking our heads wishing why the hell have we travelled all this way from Crewe to see a total lack of application and effort. When you travel on a coach with a fantastic group of fellow supporters and your team performs like that it makes me really proud and it's no wonder all our fans are buzzing today and many a fan from opposing teams are sending their congratulations today now they've seen for themselves how good we actually are. So yes, cautious optimism indeed and let's hope for consistency and even more people will realise that this sleeping giant may be opening his eyes.

Your suggestion that who Thaler supports had any bearing on the result or the way he reffed is quite frankly ill thought out.FWIW i thought he reffed reasonably well albeit too lenient with Widnes.Although i believe some officials are more cr&p than others i dont believe any are bent.

I have watched Wakey for years, that was gritty and full of determination. A very good display all round.

Not sure what the actual rules are at this time as they seem to be changed every year now but for 3 head shots to be penilised in such a short space of time, some action needed to be taken. None of them was particulary bad but someone did deserve to go the bin for them but not sure if binning a player for a head high shot is allowed.

Cross was sent off for decent, not for the numerous high shots that he had made in the previous 70 mins (about 8 at my count 5 of which were in the 2nd half)

Virtually every tackle he made was an attack to the head - he was warned about it, chelped at Thaler and was binned for dissent; the bloke's a liability.

They should have had someone binned before then for giving away persistant penalties.

Overall, they did seem to have very poor discipline - I thought Ah Van and Isa were both guilty of numerous high tackles and Scott Moore should have walked for a professional foul.

Couldn't believe the Moore incident, sin bin everytime for me.
