For major parts of the 80 minutes Ellis carried us , he is an absolout monster !! Thought feka deserve a big shout out , he seems to lift the crowd with his desire and will to run into a brick wall at 100 mile an hour , also Logan didn't do his chances any harm he's still got a lot learn obviously but very optimistic about his future !!! Individual errors would have seen us loose against every other team in sl today but a win is a win and 2 points all that matters ateotd !!! Hopefully built a bit of confidence and roll on Cas next Sunday !!! Coyh

Agree, certainly out of form, has proved he can kick goals at Cas last season, I'm sure it his form will come back.

Dumb play and poor handling let us down, but at times we played some good rugby and scored some excellent trys.
You had to be there to see how good Ellis was, dropped the first ball and looked injured, but after that ran so hard, set up two trys and great defence, think he played the full 80.
Thought Sneyd made a big difference, make a couple of mistakes, but caused problems with his running, passing and short kicking game, needs to improve his goal kicking though.
Logan had a great game as did Michaels (Who I have been critical of, but is happily proving me wrong, too great finishes today).
Houghton and Pryce ran really well, if only we backed up Pryce.
If we had more confidence and cut out the silly errors we won have won easily.
Credit to Wakey though, look a total different team under Smith, Miller caused us a few problems today.
Dave ive actually seen Johnston play a couple of times.he is only young but in a couple of years will be the real deal of a winger with real pace to go with it. Would love Brian Smith back here.it just shows what a real coach can do in a short period.Powell is the same. Regretfully our coach is so limited in ability, very lucky to be in a job and would have been sacked weeks ago by any other club chairman

Absoloutely not. Keep your eyes finger and thumbs off him! That goes for Jowitt and Crowther too! Ha

There's a better one then Sneyd in our squad never mind SL, he's called Rankin.

We tried our best to give Wakefield a chance with early individual errors giving them a foothold in the game. We scored some outstanding tries with some superb rugby league that if it was other teams playing it would be lauded. Nice to see Jack Logan playing confidently and taking his tries well. His break for when Ellis was held up was outstanding as well. Should have won by more but never do - credit to Wakey their two second half tries were very good.
