Need to make sure they kick on the 5th more lacked that yesterday, kept running it on the last. We've got two decent kickers, we need to start using them.

That would still be 14 starters.

Let's hope Lui regains some form because he does have a lot of qualities. I'm no fan of Dwyer but untill Leeming is fit we don't really have a choice unless Johnson is fit although I would rather bring Johnson into a winning team.

Lui is a very good player on his day. The pack is the big problem for us.

Think you’ll struggle in this one, Huddersfield are a class above you atm and will probably win easily

It’s actually a couple of things, the front row and the way we play.

We potentially have two good props, an aging one who might still have some good days but is mostly ineffective these days, and some young players who lack the experience to be leaders. On top of that we’ve got a seasoned pro who’s on his way back from a long injury spell out. In terms of hooker we have just signed someone who might be good for us, we have another who is full of energy and enthusiasm but lacks control, direction, decision making and delivery. Then we’ve got a kid who could be a great success if handled correctly.

In terms of the style of play, we don’t play to our (limited) strengths. We should be playing with a bit more depth due to our lack of pace, and should be running more lines to move defenders around just before moving the ball. We’ve got one centre playing out of position on the wing, and the other playing some kind of hybrid prop role as we don’t have enough go forward.

There’s still a lot of work to do with the squad and coaching team, we need to be patient.

That kid hasn’t been handled correctly. Might end up too late there.

Gone are the days when we could hold our ground with Wigan fans .Kick away we're easy right now :

Not confident about this one at all. The Giants halves were great against Catalans by all accounts so if our pack is second best again it could be a long 80 minutes.

Class.

Ward out already after round 1 I hope that's not a sign of things to come. Can't see Hurrell making the game either because haven't the concussion rules been changed to 8 days now instead of a week. From 21 man squad I think Agar will go with

Walker
Evans
Newman
Sutcliffe
Handley
Lui
Gale
Seumanufagai
Dwyer
Prior
Mellor
Martin
Smith

Subs
Myler
Cuthbertson
Oldezki
Donaldson.

Me personally I'd have Myler starting this with Dwyer as interchange, pack looks better with Seumanufagai in it but still light of a prop, backs look poor with no Hurrell or T.Briscoe though.

Walker, Newman, Hurrell, Handley, Lui, Gale, Seumanufagai, Prior, Mellor, Martin, Dwyer, Sutcliffe, Myler, Cuthbertson, Oledzki, Evans, Smith, Mclelland, Briscoe, Donaldson, Holroyd.

Holroyd, Briscoe and Mclelland in the Featherstone squad also.

Evans or Hurrell drops out.

Thought Ward maybe out looking at the state of his face after Sunday, looked nasty!

Not sure on the rules on concussion I thought it was 7 days not 8? anyway I'm assuming Hurrell won't make it so I'd go with.

Even some Leeds fans are puzzled with this.

Silly question but was he actually diagnosed as having concussion?

Yes.
He went off and didn't come back on having failed the tests.

Yep I was thinking the same and surprised to see him in the initial squad s surely there's no way he can play with the new rules?

Giants to win by 12,
Agar sacked on Monday

I hope I am wrong but after last week V Hull, I saw few if any positives. Looks like a long game ahead in terrible conditions.

That's why I thought they may have decided just not to risk putting him back on rather than him failing a test.

Agar Sacked on Monday







That is not going to happen, whether you want it to or not
