Wouldn't be so bad if this was the case but the standard of refs in our sport is shocking and they appear to have a bias for and against certain clubs.

There have been results this year that with the correct decisions would have gone the other way (involving other clubs) in professional sport this should not happen.

There is not 1 ref we have had this year that has been good enough to earn a £50k+ salary, the sooner we recruit Ex-Players into being refs the better IMO.

if you get ex players reffing wont it be just as bad surely there going to be behind either the club they grew up supporting or the club they played for

is finnigan not an option ?
we should have kept hold of kermond in my opinion

but then again we have had awful ref's against us this season but still won !!

got our four props now

crabtree, patrick, horne, raleigh

finnegan too light to play prop, he went of injured last week too not sure if hes fit for this week
kirmond had to go... as part of brough deal (wakey wouldnt of taken anybody else who we put up for them to take) and salary cap restrictions

shame though !
anyway we have a big enough team to pick from now people are fit again

Toby Adamson replaces Wood for us for his first Super League game.

EASY EASY !



Faiumu man of match... class again

Oh how things have changed. I was genuinely pi**ed off when they scored with last kick of the game. Im over it now tho. Faimu was awesome and Raleigh and Patrick both had great comebacks!

Bring ANYBODY on for the play-offs!

Fooey - PLAYER OF THE SEASON.

They know he's going to sidestep - and he still does it.

They know he's going to pass - and he still manages it., even when the tackle looks to be complete.

Without any shadow of a doubt - PLAYER OF THE SEASON.

6700 there today!
Very good turn out for us, 150-250 from salford.

It was but the Huddersfeild public need to get behind there team,the club and the team deserve better we are a top 5 team now, and untill we get the crowds the team deserves opposition fans will always bag our club.

You are talking to the converted already. What more can the Giants do?

over 6700 fans was a very good turnout from the giants today

already got my vote in for faiumu player of season, nobody can do what he does

kevin brown could poss pip him to the award which i wouldnt grumble about either

salford were very poor today

we have hit form at the right time

I voted for Larne Patrick for player of the year. He's amazing!

Think it will be out of Brown, Faiumu, Patrick or Cudjoe personally.

I'm obviously missing something since I've heard quite a few people talk about it, but where are you voting for the POS?

Commercially not much more IMHO than what they are doing and it is working, we are growing the fanbase.

The one thing they can do is win something, that will guarantee a bigger fanbase.

quick summary!!!
HUDDS.....looking good for an outside shot of play-off final if u can build on a great display today(all be it without you really having to get out of first gear!)
SALFORD...We had a lot of players out,but still no real excuse for a lack lusture performance that we have been use to on many occasions over the last couple of years!

All the best for play offs

I thought the first half was a decent contest and was relatively pleased to go in 16-0 down (considering the side we'd put out) although I was a little disappointed we hadn't managed to post any points.

The second half was one way traffic though, men against boys, and our players were clearly knackered after the defensive effort they'd had to put in during the first forty minutes. As soon as the points started racking up our heads went down (especially some of the youngsters we had out there) and the Huddersfield players snatched the opportunity to run riot. In the end we were lucky to only lose by 48?!

Whilst Huddersfield played well and thoroughly deserved their comprehensive victory I wouldn't necessarily see it as a sign that they've "hit form at the right time" though - we were awful today and got turned over with the Giants in second gear. Your players will have to be much, much better to succeed in the playoffs.

All the best when you get there - but make sure you beat Les Cats next week for us, to ensure we avoid the wooden spoon!
