| Olly did very well and I thought Raleigh had his best game of the season. Mathers was rock solid at the back, must have saved at least 3 tries and took loads of high balls in difficult conditions so I'd go for him. Wood added some real spark yet again with his introduction and Walshaw certainly didn't look out of place during his stints.

Agree with you with the MOTM, but maybe thats the way we're using wood? - Fetching him on to inject some pace and spark into our game? - Abit like we did with Latu?
But hes turned out to be a very good signing from Agar!

| for me it was ollie is effort on the pitch was excellent and he was the only wakefield forward what broke the line. he chewed up alot of metres, and was excellent in defence.

I weren't at Hull yesterday, but I've not seen anything from Wood in the first three games that suggests we are a better team with him in it. Whilst he looks lively, he disrupts our game plan, the other players seem unsure what he going to do and he is unable to control the play the ball like Aiton does. We're also wasting Aiton by moving him to loose and using him as a battering ram. I'd rather see Ellis as interchange hooker, or play Aiton for the full 80 minutes and have another forward on the bench.

| Ollie ran the ball in very well but I thought Wood gave us an extra spark when he came on and changed the flow of the game.

I don't think you'll find anyone who was at the game yesterday who'll argue with the fact that we only looked like a real attacking threat when Wood came on; he takes the line on, puts their defence on the back foot and backs himself - as evidenced by the try he scored by chasing down his own kick.
I'd like to see Smith and Wood start together - they seem to combine well.

We have been better in every game when Wood has come on - partly due to his own excellent play (tactical, running, passing and kicking), and partly due to him freeing up Aiton to run a bit at the line - which he looks dangerous doing.
Ellis and Wood for Hooker / Interchange and Aiton to share a backrow position / cover for half-back. That way you get to keep Smith and John together - we have to keep patient with them and hope that they can gel at some point - soon!

| Individually, I think Wood has done okay, but I just think we lack cohesion when he comes on and the team suffers. Also, Aiton looks devastating at dummy half, I'm not sure why we would want to play him anywhere else? As for Smith and John, at least one of them needs to start taking on the line or we will be in danger of playing some really fancy rugby with nothing to show for it. Having said that, I think it's too early too talk about splitting them up as they need time to build an understanding, but one of them needs to become the dominant partner, and for me that should be Smith.
