Superb result today - effort was there in spades. Given our high error rate and the subsequent pressure from the Wigan attack that we had to endure a fantastic team effort.

Agree that we have lots to improve on - but hey - played 3 - won 3 - and beaten two top 4 sides within that and only conceeding an average 6.666 points per game - WOW!!!

Special mention to Brett Ferres - awesome throughout and just shading a superb performance from Big Eorl who was also immense and changed the game when he came on.

OOH TO BE A FARTOWNER

I hope we keep our average points conceded next week

So very much

Could be a year of we will score ten because we will only let them score 4!?

We put 40 on Saints, 34 on London and 22 on Wigan so pretty good, but if I had to settle for a 10-4 win, I'm more than happy

Just thinking it would be the mentality before kick off "you shall not pass" work hard in defense, work down the middle and take the points you can. Then in the later mins when the opposition is tiered of being dominated in the middle cut loose and run up the points, like we did against saints

I can foresee a problem of superstition from this 100% run. If I keep wearing the same "lucky" clothes so as not to jinx us I will be a tad uncomfortable by June

one of the big differences this season which baloo has sorted out is making sure we have a strong pack with props and not a bunch of second rowers.

last season we got beat down the middle to often and didnt give our backs a chance this season our backs look like they will have a chance to get into full flight.

but considering this is a transition stage an amazing start !

you will look/fell awful by october

Hee Hee. Know what you mean. We walked half way ground yesterday to make sure we did our lucky prematch routine of buying programme from usual lady, and draw tickets from usual old dear.
Still seems to be working.
Anyone else have lucky per- match routines / clothes?

brough got caught a couple of times with the ball on the last tackle, didnt help with the pressure we had in the last quarter... maybe needs to stand abit further back but wigan did well to pressure him like they did

I wear my lucky pants! I think the problem in previous years may have been that the luck was washed out of them as the season progressed.......won't make that mistake this season!

Sorry but I had to bump the post... superstition reasons!

Ha ha.. excellent, fortunately it is forecast to be cold on Sunday, so my lucky attire will be in season!!!!

Haha, good to know I'm not the only one.

My lucky pants are ready- along with my lucky thermals, lucky base layer, 2 lucky jumpers, lucky jeans, two pairs of lucky thermal socks, lucky jacket and lucky coat. Lucky hat, scarf and gloves-
Just make sure someone's stood behind me in July ready to catch me when I pass out!

jools, do you come in a van?

I've always been the type to give credit where credits due and I have been amazed by for performances you have been solid in attact and diligent in defence. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of your games, this can only be a good thing for superleague surely

I get cold easily!
I couldn't actually bend in the middle at the London game- had to sort of slouch in my seat!

The only reason we won on Sunday was because I wore my Giants onesie

*Bump*

have we ever won 5 super league games on the trot?? sure i read in the examiner it will be the first time?

yep, under Jon Sharp( 2007 ?) we lost 1st 7 then won next 7

First time in SL we have won the first 5. I think it's the first time we have won the first 3 (or maybe it was the first 4).

Haven't won first 5 yet! Lets not get carried away with ourselves cos as we more than any team are aware the wheels can fall off very quickly.

Game by game, week by week improvement this season and fingers firmly crossed. Had a let off last week and hopefully the kick up we needed without actually losing.

Spot on FP

Weekly improvements and competitive in all games is key

Naturally I want us to win all our home games, which is critical to pushing for a top 6 spot.
