i think that the giants will have a bit too much for us on sunday and not only due to our injuries but also due to the fact that the giants have had a 2 week turnaround too

the giants are looking pretty good at the moment and if they can keep this form up for the full season,then they are definitely capable of winning silverware,but most probably in the challenge cup imo

jones's a legend still believes that no new names will be engraved onto the grand final trophy this year and that the winners will come from either wigan,wolves or the rhinos i'm afraid

despite the players they could be missing it's still gonna take a big effort to win again, they still have enough quality to beat us, lets not take anything for granted as it's just setting us up for a big fall.

on a lighter note, lets play "guess the giants player to see red against leeds this time"

I will go for kopczak this time

c'mon guys surely you will win this one comfortably,you might try and cover this thought by edging your bets or sitting on the fence with your posts,but surely it got a giants win of 18 written all over it i'm afraid

does make you wonder how they come up with which refs match which matches .,.. toss of a coin?

ill go for wardle to be sent off again

I'm going to say Brough.

Eorl will be red carded. As usual it'll be an error by the refereeing committee and he will be cleared of all wrong doing.

Hang on ....Sinfield isn't playing so we might get away with keeping 13 on this time, unless Hetherington has appointed Rob Berrows as Ref's assistant for now !!

I must have missed that time Warrington won the grand final...

I'm going to go for taai - after he clotheslines burrow on a run from dummy half. Such a shame baileys not playing...

Never write off a rhino you've all heard that before after they've been written off.No excuses necessary

Leeds are definately favourites for this one. A champion team who always win when it matters. Giants meanwhile always lose the big games and are well known chokers.

Leeds have a massive squad and loads of talented youngsters.

I'll go Leeds by 12

Hudds by 20+ IMO.

Wonder if we will see any of those newcomers or casual fans return for this one given the excitement of the cup game ?
Surely if that was your 1st game you would want to see that again ?

hope so!

its sunday at 3pm after all, over 8k at least i reckon.

leeds are the champs they should be able to cope with injuries

Let's hope they don't cope quite so well then

Never has a team so decimated by injuries and suspension and containing so many academy players had such an -nipping effect on another teams fans , Hetherington , Sinfield , Silverwood , the RFL , conspirators all .

Its reassuring that the champions can still instill this much fear into you all .



You will have much bigger tests than Sunday , don't panic .

Leeds are champions - and Champions, no matter who is playing for them they will make the opposition wary !!

You call excuses I'll call it being realistic



Going away to a team like Huddersfield with your 2 half backs missing, both and two best 2nd rowers missing plus others is a very hard task, it's great experience for the you kids but I fancy Hudds by 3 scores

If it was Wigan you'd still expect them to win, same with Leeds, we have to be top of our game to beat either, Rhino's clear favourites, our half backs scrum half can't even get in the England team !

I don't think we will win comfortably, as much as I would like to ( again

) leeds always pose a threat, they have some good players capable of playing very well when it matters and some good youngsters who will be keen to impress.

Lets hope for approaching 10,000 - any news on ticket sales?

I'm bringing 5 extra kids!

Think a healthy 8k will be there but even if there isn't let's do exactly what we did against saints!
Ramp up the volume and show the boys that we are 100% behind them!

Yep, noise all the way through I hope

You are deffinately taking the p-ss here! You've had a great season so far and could (in theory) still win the double. Have some faith in your team and pack in all this ridiculous garbage about Leeds being favourites when EVERYTHING points towards a comfortable Giants win. Get a reality check.
