According to mcdummy at the press conference we are bigger, stronger and more capable of scoring points than Leeds. He said Leeds were the underdogs.

not with the bookies!

backed wardle to score a try at 9/4

hes also a juicy 20/1 for the first try! ferres is 28/1

Jamie Peacock missing for Leeds possibly. They have drafted Moore in. Probably not decide until the warm up though.

Doesn't surprise me, that was a nasty twist on his knee last week. It is certainly a blow to Leeds if he misses out, but I do genuinly hope he hasn't suffered serious damage, missing a week to ensure he is right for the rest of the season sounds sensible to me

Bruno still not doing enough in attack for me, doesn't run his weight an far too easy to put down, would have Ferres, Chan and Fergy in backrow as all 3 offer more in attack and do as much defensively.

Mullally has looked good but Ta'ai also showed glimpses against wire with ball in hand out wide, close call as to go gets a bench spot

Leeds are favourites they always turn up for the big games and win, as the majority of their fans tell us.

To be fair they do win the majority of the big games, but........



evrey now and then we surprise people..........

Source?

Peacock will play he said he trained on Monday on the SL show and was fine. Moore (who's replaced Singleton in the squad who's also a prop) probably won't play and if he does it'll be in Clarkson's place.

Singleton tweeted the other day something about getting an xray to see why he looked like the elephant man so I assume he was injured at some point.

Are you saying he turned into Jamie Jones Buchanan

Quite possibly yes

I don't agree with all the content of your first paragraph, Bruno doesn't offer as much in attack as the other three on that I agree- but they do not do as much defensively i do not agree there. In 5 games Bruno has only missed 1 tackle. Thats missed 0.67% of tackles! dale and chan have missed 4.5% and ferres over 6% (sorry I can't help it- it's the scientist in me looking for the evidence - I know it makes me a sad geek!)
Now ideally wed like the attacking prowess of ferres mixed with the defensive qualities of mike rolled into one player- but id rather have a mixture on the field than be like KR.

agree about lawrence in attack but we have chan and ferres to do that, lawrence cant be left out with his workrate in defence

fergusons defence for me is not upto scratch, seen him caught out quite a few times, and his attack is not exactly the best either, not one for making clean break himself unlike chan and ferres

Any chance Vickery can play for Leeds again?

Hell no. Kallum Watkins

It appears the winner of tomorrows game will be the only West Yorkshire team left in the competition as Bradford lost to London tonight, Wakey lost to Hull FC and Fax lost to Sheffield.

We need every single Giants supporter to make some noise today against what with probably be the loudest away following we've ever had at the stadium. With your backing it can lift the boys from the minute they walk on to the field and hopefully we'll get off to a good start and keep the Leeds fans quiet like we did at Headingley a few months ago. Your club needs your vocal support today.

Wise words.

We just need to win....I do not think many RL fans could stand another Wire v Leeds Final and we are in a position to stop that and do ourselves a power of good in the process, believe, believe, believe

Message from the club:

Preaching to the converted on here Ponner- what you need is to stand outside the stadium in your onesie with a megaphone!
A rocket up the bum might be the only option for some of our supporters

Not really preaching to the converted as there's plenty of people who post on here and just read the board that don't shout at the games. If ever there was a day when the boys need you to get behind them, it's today.

Exactly.......Leeds fans will be trying to make plenty, if we can respond and lift our team it will shut them up and give our lads confidence....Every Giants fan should leave that ground today with a sore throat !!

Turn it on today Giants and show the style and flair I know you have.

Will be parked on the couch with 12 bottles of the finest ale,all the best

What an utter idiot, really hoping you can hang on now.

Hudds are really trying to give Leeds the game right now.
