I have to say Wakey were truly shocking. I'm not sure how representative their side was bearing in mind their injuries at first team level, the game was won in the forwards with Rovers constantly breaking up the middle of the park. Don't know who Rovers halves were but their skill levels were appalling.

All in all a pretty awful game of rugby.

Wakefield couldn't compete up front. Mills, Watts and Taylor were breaking defences most sets.

Frankie Mariano looked alright, very impressive defence, as did James Haynes.

thanks matty for line up well done lads

How did Andy Moody play?

bet esso enjoyed playing 2nd row

I'm looking to take in our reserve game if we're up early enough.

Not seen them yet but I don't think we will have a problem in the forwards with Tangata-Toa and Jordan James featuring for the reserves last week.

James Haynes played well, thought Spaven was ok.
I thought they were all enthusiastic.
Mills didn't do enough to warrant getting back in the first team, and wheeldon did wat he had to do, neither were especially outstanding. Wheeldon did better than mills though

Be good to see Tangles back at Craven Park.

Can he manage more than 10 minutes each half for the reserves??

Not sure, haven't seen a game yet.

13 Welsh lads in the squad so far this year though so things looking good.

Reserves game is on Saturday i belive 2.30 ko

A lot of them are very new to rugby league also but both squads primarily made up of Welsh born lads have beaten Leeds reserves and lost narrowly 14-16 last Saturday to Saints reserves.

Sounds good mate. Hope to see a few break though in the coming years.

Yeah let's hope so.

That is why I think rugby league can succeed this time down here as we're looking to put in a system that is looking to produce it's own talent rather than using players that were quite frankly past it, like in the last attempts.
