Me and her in doors will be there for £10 each wearing black n white looking forward to a good game hope there is loads of giants supporters to make it a grate atmosphere see you all Thursday.

When you take into account what is at stake for this match. I hope we get a really good crowd. I know its Thursday night, which is rubbish, but a tenner in advance and I guess fifteen quid on the game people should come in good numbers for this. The lads better turn up for this one. Support for Eorl and Koppy is what is required.

Yes , Ken Davy is without a man who truly supports this great game, you need to respect him and let his team win

Whose your team for Thursday, 19 for me:

Grixy
Jerry
Leroy
Wardle
Murph
Ferres
Chan
Taai
Patrick
Eorl
Koppy
Brough
Lunt
Robbo
Bruno
Fooey
Wood
Fergie
Cording

Cording to miss out and Fergie if Taai is fit

Can't wait for this, we have a great chance to progress now, no disrespect to Hull but this is a winnable game and shouldn't be as much pressure to win this as there was for the last one, Wigan will always be classed as a bigger game and therefore higher pressure.
Obviously its a must win game and i think Baloo will have the guys 100% focused and up for it...i guess time will tell.

hope it stays dry for this game and that we play crabtree and lunt on the pitch instead of on the bench looking on as we get battered.

Are you saying Direct Gold stand has sold out all the lower tier tickets? I find that very, very hard to believe so soon after going on sale.

read the thread again

that looks good to me dont know how to put this after my last post rumour taai had to have plastic surgery after bradford game hope all is well

He did but Anderson said he was back in training and put him in the squad so he should be ok for thurs

Doesn't look we will have anyone back from injury this week. So our injury list still looks like:

McDonnell
Lineham
Crooks
Arundel
O'Meley
Lynch
Galea

Not sure if it will matter much, anyway. I believe we can win, but not sure we will. Our defence is good, our attack is terrible. If we can muster up a half decent attack then we have a chance, if not I fear the game will be yours.

got my ticket, COYG!

I'd be a happy chappie if we went with that, Hope Lunty and Eorl are both fully fit, boy did we miss them when they weren't on the field last week, neither played their usual minutes playing last week.

some decent players out injured for you guys then... we are fine apart from fielden and odonnell not being around anymore but these are two big players in their own right.

i fear lunt and crabtree are carrying knocks though and are not fit, crabtree only did 30mins other night and usually does big stints. Lunt should be on the pitch far more abit like houghton and recently mcilrum of wigan.

looking for a big response on thursday, we have comeback well after defeats this season so expect we will and be 80mins from the grand final. would be a massive shame to go out on a whimper after such a good season

Obviously I hope our boys can do it, but if not I want the Giants to go all the way and win at Old Trafford. I just hope we give you a good game on Thursday and not collapse like we did against Saints.

Great idea from your bosses at Hudds, i really thought Hull would have done the same for the Cats game to boost a crowd that was always going to be a low one. Poor management from Hull.

Thursday night play off games are a crap concept and are bound to have low turn outs so rather than blame the travelling fans the RFL need to bin it for next season if decent attendances are to be had. I hope the Hull fans travel in numbers but like most i won't be due to work....COYHulllllllllllllllllllllll

I think Sky are calling the tune regarding fixture dates and as far as they are
concerned everything is AOK.

Ironically, as the lowest supported team in the play-offs we were the only ones to post an above average attendance - and on a thursday night too - so SKY and the RFL will argue that it does work !

Great gesture from Ken Davy to even make it £10 for away fans. If the game had been Fri / Sat I think we would have brought 3,000, (3,500 for the equivalent fixture at Wire last year) but Thurs night think it will be a lot less, no young kids as school night, therefore a lot of familes will be giving it a miss, early start at work on Friday for many, and its on SKY. Hope it's more but expect us to bring around 1,000 - 1,200. See you Thursday.

indeed, 7100 was a great crowd..especially when you compare with what the other play off attendances were.

dont think they will be as many this time round though, not the same buzz around it.

5k this time i reckon

This game is bigger than last week, as it's knock out rugby, fail and we're out. I expect similar numbers to last week as Hull won't bring as many as Wigan

lynch back for hull fc

I think hull will bring as many.
Got my bad parent tickets.


(Ps noticed a lot of wakey fans browsing our board- what's that about, any rumours we've missed?)

The only one is that we went for AMOR but he chose Saints

Yes we discussed that one- amor was very scathing about us when Lunt won the GF with Leeds- something about "love" you... So I'm not surprised he doesn't want to come to us. Lets hope he fits in with lunts friend Nathan brown!
Funny we've gone from having this big massive pack to struggling for props- mullally and Fairbank really need to step up. Perhaps we should have hung onto walker- he would have been a welcome addition right now.
For me we have to play taai up front rather than a wide runner.
