Wakefield v Widnes preview
Wakefield will give debuts to six players in Sunday's Super League opener against Widnes Vikings at Belle Vue.
Tinirau Arona, Anthony England, Liam Finn, Ben Jones, Anthony Tupou and Jason Walton are all included in Brian Smith's 19-man squad but they are without hooker Scott Moore, who has undergone surgery for a torn pectoral muscle.
"We have a group that has put in a lot of preparation with a fair bit of intensity throughout the sessions," said Smith.
"We have done enough in the work area to go into this season well, we just need to focus on competing well and put in the practice from the training sessions."
Widnes include new signings Chris Bridge, Chris Houston, Setaimata Sa and Corey Thompson as well as second rower Connor Farrell, who has joined on a season-long loan from Wigan.
