War/Lock/Rogue/Pal/Shm has several weaknesses.
1. Two melee, one BoF. This means frost nova is going to wreck havoc on your team's ability to DPS.
2. Warlock -- unless he's Soul Link and has 300+ resilience, he's going to be a prime target. You'll need to be resto have a chance at keeping him up.
Working a priest into your rotation, in place of the rogue, will make you a much stronger team -- it gives you fort, mass dispel and and either lets you go elemental and the priest 28/33, or you can mix things up and have the priest go shadow (which synergizes very nicely with the warlock) and stay resto yourself.

We're running War/Rog/Mage/Pal/Shaman and the top team on Nightfall is using War/Rog/Mage/Pal/Priest.
Mages don't really use nova on melee enough to be an issue, the only time I really worry is when it's 2 Frost Mages but thats only happened once, and it shouldn't be as bad once we get the Ice Block changes in 2.1.0. Most of the time i've been kited is when somebody is BoFed and their just running around, even without being snared it's hard to get rage to pummel any healers or intercept so unless Mace spec procs I have to wait out BoF or hope it gets purged.

Skilltrap wins against our rogue and warrior every time, seeing as we only have one BoF and it usually goes to the warrior as he has WF and does most of our damage.

Rogues can get out of the trap themself, and Warriors can intercept out of it (or trinket + intercept if entrapment is active) since people are within range of you pretty much everytime.
