As others have said I think it was an excellent all round team performance with no-one really letting the team down at all.
Drew for me though head and shoulders above the rest and having to be with no other half-backs or playmakers on the field when Grix went off.
I'd also give a big pat on the back to Tony Martin too, someone who I'd never, ever think of playing as a scrum half, but he's putting his hand up and doing a job for the team, a lovely kick through for Atkins first try aswell.

gone for drew a class act, you can see him looking all the time then everythings at speed. if he stays fit he could bring some players up to another level this season.
WAKEFIELD FANS ARE BORN, NOT MANUFACTURED.WE DO NOT CHOOSE, WE ARE CHOSEN. THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND NEED NO EXPLANATION. THOSE WHO DONT, DONT MATTER.
Gone for Drew as well but I think Grix would have run him very close if he hadn't got injured.
Stosic was awesome again and we missed him when he went off for a rest but thankfully he and Wilkes had already laid a strong platform and completely overshadowed their 2 big props (Cashmere and Stapleton).
Great performances from Blanch and Atkins, 2 well taken tries each.
Good show from Halley again, always a willing worker.
Great effort from Tony Martin playing out of position.
Solid performance from Snitch and Ferguson.
Outstanding effort again from JD, he really does lead by example.
And Kevin Henderson, take a bow. Another very workmanlike and solid performance in attack and defence. Makes you wonder if he has been reading these forums and is out to prove a few people wrong.

I have voted Drew.
However I feel I must mention a guy who has taken a lot of stick on here.
Matty Blaymire was not man of the match but had another good game. He was well positioned at every kick, he must have the safest hands in SL and
he just did his job very well. Nice to see the guy back in form.
