Great stuff, what a decent article too!

Eorl, you are an absolute legend and a true club man. A hero for the giants and a player who in my view will now be a fixture in the international setup for the best part of his career. Whatakes this a great piece of news is that we are able to retain quality players who can commit safe in the knowledge that playing for the giants will not hinder there representative chances. Well done eorl and the giants , I really am chuffed to bits with this news!

No doubt whatsoever that many SL clubs would want Eorl.

A fantastic bit of news. An extra big cheer for the guy on Sunday.

I don't think there's a side in the league that wouldn't like to have a player like Eorl in their side. He's always been a hard worker in defence but is now consistently causing opposition defences major headaches himself. He has good feet, great hands and when he gets going he can really shift.

No doubt he'll be getting some form of ovation when he comes onto the pitch on Sunday. Nice timing as well by the club, may well bring a few more down to the game.

The man has Claret & Gold for blood! When I first heard this news, I was made up for Him & Helen. Security & just reward for a hard working individual who has given loyalty to his home town club.

Will this news outshine the next major signing



Well done Eorl

It's also a boost for the areas youth development because Eorl is heavily involved in that too.

Looking on the stats page of the superleague site I notice that Eorl is joint top of offloads with 43 for the season.

Brilliant news for our club, its made my day!!! WELL DONE EORL

Griff is still contracted next year isn't he?

I believe he and Jacko are both out of contract at the end of this season.

Just done a quick search of the Examiner website but it's not as good as it used to be for finding old articles. Will have another squizz...

Signed in 2007 on a 3 year deal.

www.examiner.co.uk/huddersfield- ... -24213740/ upsy daisy's link confirms then that Griff's in the last year of his current deal. If he goes he will take some replacing, he has recently started to find some form again.

I thought he'd signed another deal but could be wrong (I have been before

)

He was in spanking form last season wasn't he, but I can't remember him extending. The Examiner site is now pretty rubbish for searching for the older articles though, which is a shame. It used to be really good but the format change doesn't work well now for the archived articles.

great news about eorl best prop in the league by a mile mainly because of his ability to offload, which other than graham at saints not many props do

Fantastic news, hope he becomes an international regular now, on the form he's showing there's nobody else in SL to touch him. He should be a "shoe in" but unfortunately I don't pick the team.

Well done Big Eorl a true Fartown Great.

I hope Big Griff follows suit now.


ONWARDS AND UPWARDS

Ive said it a million times before on opposing teams forums, Eorl will never leave Huddersfield, 5 more years, fantastic news

Great news for everyone is that. He is one of the best props in Super League and to have played what will be nearly his entire career with us is fantastic.

If he's OOC I'd love saints to go for him, always seems to make an impression when I've seen him.

If he's hell bent on leaving us we'll swap him for Moore







Really hope he stays though.

Just great news about Eorl - he's really benefitted from NB's coaching this season and has gone up a couple of levels to become one of the best, if not the best prop in the comp.

A top player and a great vote of confidence in his home town club.

this shows how far the Giants have come in the last 4 years.

Has the potential to move on to the sort of greatness that Wagstaff has in Huddersfield folklore.

Really really made up about this, although I really could not see Eorl wanting to leave us, he really does love his hometown club.

You can see that at every game win or lose he aways comes over to greet the fans, and a top top bloke.
