Several contenders for MOM I personally think Lino deserved it - his passing was superb and he shirks nothing in the tackle.
Needs to keep it up.
I can't see another championship team living with our forwards and that's despite lacking Boothroyd and Bain ( does that guy exist?
Do fairies have tails?

The sides we come up against are going to use any and every advantage they can to try and slow us down..
This will come more to the fore when the grounds harden up and we get to play more open rugby…
Really enjoyed tonight.. off to a cracking start with a statement win..
Great crowd, making a great atmosphere
Really chuffed for Neil Fox tonight also.
Wow… it’s good to be a Wakefield Trinity fan at the moment….'"
My thoughts exactly.
And don't mind saying it got me in the feels (as the kids say these days ) seeing Neil open the new stand backed by his wife and his great mates.

| Great night. Lino showing that, when he’s fired up and confident, he’s still one of the best running halves in the country. And he did a right job on Appo, who gave halfbacks nightmares all last season. Good prep from the coaches. Helps having Griffin outside him, who’s easily a super league-quality player. Atoni, Bowden and Pitts all dominant, and Olpherts did exactly what he’s been brought in to do - play like McGilvary. And loved Hood’s little battle with Hallas.
On the other side, I was quite surprised by how easily Bradford gave away yards, and I don’t know how bookies and pundits are predicting they’ll finish top 3. Not much depth and their goal line defence was appalling.
We should really benefit from a week off, rest any niggles and go to Featherstone with a point to prove.

| Good performance last night for a round 1 fixture. It wasn't perfect but definitely something to build on.
Lino was the best player on the field last night, showed that behind a pack that gets on top and gets quick PTB's he's got space to run the game. He had a hand in everything good last night. Griffin back to 2nd row showed extra quality we don't get from him in the centre. Jowitt was also proving that, for me, he's the best full back in the league barring his small lapse in discipline.
Olpherts had a decent enough game and provided yardage we missed against Fev, but his defence did worry me a little bit. I'd give him the benefit of the doubt for now considering he's not played in a long time.
Overall, it's a good start, up the Trin!

| What a good night and great to be back on the western terrace with a lot of old friends there who I'd not seen for years. Performance wise I think there's lots more to come, we didn't seem to have the flow and crispness at times but I'm sure the team will improve when the grounds dry out. Massive effort from the club the fans and players, we now have hope

| I'm not really sure why Jowitt kicked off.
On the highlights I can't really see that the Bradford player does anything wrong.
Anyone have a better view from North Stand lower section?

What's the new Western Wall like up close?
It looked great from the opposite side but I wondered if some disgruntled away fan could pull it all down or even set fire to it?

Souter unnecessary slid in when Jowitt scored. Jowitt might've thought that it was his knees. McGowen escalated it by running and and was lucky not to go as well

Looking at the video Jowitt half heartedly threw the ball towards Souter but It didn’t even hit Souter. L
Sin bin a bit harsh on both counts but McGowan was the one who kicked it off running in from some distance.
Not sure what Jowitt was binned for tbh.
Can’t see anything coming from that. Barely counts as handbags.

Think this is down to a lot better coaching .He is no longer a swinging gate in defence ,in fact it looked very good last night .In the interview in hospitality last night he said the coach's are telling him to take the line on more and are giving him more confidence to do it, think setting up 4 or 5 trys last night speak for its self Though the comments he made about N Fox showed how humble the guy is

He'll have been sent for starting it. The handbags wouldn't have started without his action.
Needs to be better than that but I can't see any follow up issues at RFL.

| I think Max is probably getting peed off with being targeted with head shots and late hits during most games this year.
