Love the idea of a true giants flag. Could have a nice Mount Rushmore pic with Eorl, Danny, Sir Ken and Stanley! Or vote is a good idea to vote for the players . Really nice idea though. How about the text 'I am, you are, we are Giants'. Bit of a pinch from others, but always liked that sense of inclusion on banners.

will have to get a topic where we can cast votes for the flag soon

have to decide how many players we want on the flag though??

shouldn't it possibly include Harold Wagstaff, Peter Ramsden,Ben Gronow etc? like that idea though

they had their limelight with centenary year and rightly so, would like to go more modern though and with the super league Giants theme

My thought would be 5 players, two on the outside would be Wagstaff and Gronow then Broughy in the middle! Do the vote on the other two?

Reilly would have to be on there- that picture of him with claret running down his face and a massive grin! He's hudds through and through

I was going to do one with Dave Valentine, Brandon Costin, Stanley Gene and Danny Brough with the caption 'Standing on the Shoulders of Giants'

Could work?

for sure!

My thought would be... 'The Fartown Legends' over pictures in this order 'Valentine, Reilly, Brough, Crabtree, Wagstaff' with this underneath 'With Claret and Gold Blood' what do you think?

Id to see something like 'True Giants', with the super league era/northern ford premiership players who have give everything for the giants cause

Crabtree tops the list, mr huddersfield

Brough, captain, MOS, best player to wear the shirt

Cudjoe, hudds born and bred, from newsome to england international, loves the club.

Reilly, claret and gold blood.

Gene? seems to have more affection towards hull kr but id like him on the flag?

russell?

costin went to bulls, was he a true giant compared to the above, same with brett hodgson, wire and now widnes.

nero/wild again they moved on..

def think the top 4 have to be crabtree/brough/cudjoe/reilly - and some great pics for each of them, cudjoe kissing the Giants badge ive seen, reilly all blooded up!

not being funny brearley but surely we can't have too many players on there, and if we are honouring our legends then i wouldn't neccessarily say russell,wild,nero, were legends.

if we are having a "legends flag" then we don't want it too cluttered with too many ex players on there

I agree don't want too many players- also Reilly absolutely has to be on there- Mr Huddersfield.
Im probably going to get shot down for this but I'm not convinced brough should be on there either. He's a great player for us but not been a stalwart of our club- his own flag as our captain I totally agree with.

If we're doing a modern era one there's only 2 players that come close to getting on it ....Paul Reilly and Eorl Crabtree, Homegrown players who gave everything for this club and town, - talk to Paul and he will tell you how gutted he was to not be offered a job with us !! - good as other's have been they haven't come close to these 2 legends yet !!!

Leroy could get there one day but at the moment those 2 are the only 2 in my opinion.

i agree, i said the 4 above that id have on the flag.

the rest were just others that some may consider but wouldnt be classed as legends, think you have read my post wrong. even put that nero/wild moved on like costin and hodgson so they wouldnt get on the flag for me ahead of the 4 i said would

Looks like just 2 on a flag then

crabtree and reilly.

still think cudjoe and brough should make it on too but guess it would have to go too a vote!

my aplogies, i did read it wrong

I love the idea for the flag but deciding upon the players to go on the flag could be difficult!

Do a poll!

I would but I don't know how :')

are we planning on taking the flags to hull kr on monday?

Definitely however I'm not 100% sure I can go atm so could I give the two flags I have to one of you guys to put up?

I think the flag should incorporate something about the past and the future.

I have always liked the idea of




" From Fartown to the Giants"

With a picture of Wagstaff and Danny Brough / Eorl


That shows our history but also about moving on into the future.

i thought that too DG but couldn't think how to word it.. instead i just went for the old fartown/coat of arms and giants badge

I like the idea of the legends flag however as it is clear in this discussion everyone if going to feel like someone has been missed. I wonder if we put this idea on the back burner for a bit and revisit it maybe at a stage when the flag fund has already got some in the collection. I think a flag with the logo on and an inspiring message could be a good way to go
