I thought Oli Wilkes & Randy Aleigh did well up front against a big opposition pack & Danny Kirmond is looking one of our better new signings. Ironically our 1st try was set up & scored by 3 players who always seemed to inflict pain on us in past seasons , big Ali , Richie Mathers & Ben Cockayne, they all seem to be playing well for us.

Kirkmond for me Mathers had a good game

Re: MOTM : Sun Feb 26, 2012 11:52 am  

Aiton, even allowing for a few errors.

Toss up between Kirmond, Aiton and Mathers for me. FWIW, Mathers got the sponsors MotM.

Kirmond is always a good strong runner but I think he was on the field a bit too long for you guys. It;s not often Bryn Hargreaves knocks a player off but he did it to Kirmond to create a try. I thought Aiton was alright in the first half and Mathers did some good things but you always geta mixed bag with him. Lauitiiti looked threatening whenever he was on.

Wakefield look like a side that needs time to settle to me. A few times the half backs didn't click with their runners. Same situation with us, especially with our injuries disrupting things further.

Ben Cockayne played well and Kirmond put a good shift in, that was about it. Aiton looked lively, seems a reincarnation of Leo-Latu to me. The great break followed by a cock-up summed him up. Most of them need to raise their game though.

I watched it on Sky, and apart from a few minor decisions, he seemed to get most things right. However, he did miss quite a few forward passes at dummy half from Aiton which we can't complain about.

Stung for two forward passes that even eddie and stevo were fine
Off side was a joke
'Laying on' was blatant

Re: MOTM : Sun Feb 26, 2012 5:53 pm  

Aiton for me, he is a great signing

Re: MOTM : Sun Feb 26, 2012 5:56 pm  

Ben Cockayne tried possibly too hard and should have dragged other Wakey players over to support when the kick was coming.

Paul Aiton - Great first half but was either off the pitch or not involved enough in the second half.


Maybe Mathers - not sure about is forward role when scoring

Re: MOTM : Sun Feb 26, 2012 11:16 pm  

Kirmond for me with the amount of work he put in.
