GAME ON : Huddersfield Giants v Salford City Reds - 20:00:00

GENERAL CHAT ABOUT THE GAME, BUILD UP, THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS AND AFTERMATH BELOW.

Not a fan of this Sky Sports News format and also we're 45 minuted into the program and there's been more talk of the NRL than there has the Championship. Neither of which they show. They do however have the rights to one of them....

Decent game so far. Back and forward

noticed a few tackles around the neck from 13 and 15 of the giants, starting to wonder if those kind of tackles, simlilar to grapple tackles are forgotten about these days

now that was a joke!

jones just throw it forward at brough!

What an absolute disgrace of a rule. Throwing the ball at a player laying on the ground. Worst rule they have. That pass went forward so should have been a scrum to Hudds. Hate it!!!!

First time I saw it was last year when Catalan did it twice against us, Widnes, both times they were forward passes.

Looks likes teams are going to exploit this as they can no longer move forward off the mark to pinch yards.

Needs stamping out as soon as possible.

Quickest way to stop this nonsense by dummy halves is to give a penalty to the defending team and sin bin the dummy half.

They'll stop doing it straight away once the first one gets binned.

Huddersfield appear to have woken up!

Is someone working with a hammer on the TV gantry? Sounds like I've got builders in the loft!

Also, good to see Voldemort back in super league, in his guise as Lee Gaskell.

That Leeming looks a talented lad; where did Hudds get him from?

What an neffort...

Jeez, some powder puff defending by hudds at the end.

How bad is Hinchcliffe? Wow

That was just awful from a man with his experience. And not the first error he made, either.

Creditable effort from Salford there.

Enjoyed that! Only 3 more games to go on SKY wooooo!

Brilliant game that, good stuff.

Many players played well but Leeming really stood out.

thought it was a really entertaining game, Salford just more fluid in attack in the end

Gareth O'Brien was excellent in what was a really good game to watch.

Maybe I've just been missing rugby but I've been pretty happy with what I've seen so far. Aside from the Cas v Leigh game, they've been tough, hard fought games which could have gone either way. Even the Cas v Leigh game was watchable due to Cas playing some nice stuff.

Born in Swaziland.
But came through giants academy.

Looks a real talent. Dangerous all game.

Enjoyed the game. Echo the sentiment about Leeming

I wouldn't say it was a brilliant game, but it was a very decent contest, and certainly a lot more entertaining than Leeds and Saints last week.
