| Impressive performance. I know Wire were a bit battered before the KO, but still we took full advantage and that was good to see. The 40-20 from Danny was very smart and his kicking to Penny in the second half was cruel. I thought the pack really laid a good foundation for us too, Leeming moved them around well, he is becoming a quality player. Sunday's seem to suit our players, they perform better in an afternoon. The next game will be tough, few win down in the South of France, yes the Cats are not at their best, but we don't want any complacency, back to back wins would be a real confidence booster and if we needed any motivation moving out of the bottom 4 should be a driver, thing is Cats will be thinking something similar.

From reports it sounds like wire were dire but we played pretty well.
Are we seeing green shoots.
It is nice to have some pace in the team as well. Hopefully scoring a few more tries will increase the entertainment value.
Well done to the Giants.

| Wire were poor, looked tired
We were a little shaky at times but all in all a good performance. A bit disappointed we let lineham in- same corner, same issue back-pedalling instead of just hitting the man, but some later good defence from that side to prevent a couple more.
I though leeming was absolutely brilliant yesterday, some smart play from dummy half, our forwards didn't make many metres overall but were solid. Broughs kicking was a masterclass- he was like a cat playing with his prey with penny. And not just with his kicking, everytime penny got the ball he smashed him- I bet penny will have nightmares about that game!

| I still can't believe Kevin Penny is still playing Super League, he was awful years ago and has only got worse - Broughy was laughing at him in the end it was so easy for him.
Agree about Kruise but i wish he'd take the line on and go on his own more when near it as i feel he has to strength to do what Cunningham used to, reckon he could pick a few tries up too, apart from that he's fast becoming a very good Super League player.
Thought Hinchy, Leroy and Smurph were very good too yesterday.
Getting some confidence going at the moment and it shows.

| Best I've seen them play this year by a distance. Hinchcliffe's best performance along with a couple of other. The challenge is to maintain it now.

| Hinchcliffe is huge for us right now. We're finally seeing what was expected of him. Kruise was awesome too. And broughs kicking game was perfect. I know Warrington are busted, but we will compete with every team if we can play like that consistently. Happy for Rick too, he's not had it easy as Hudds coach. But we've steadily been improving. I think all giants fans can be feeling positive for the rest if the season now.

| Nice to see we have learnt an ability to score tries from short range after previously battering away without success. Evidence of good coaching?

| Yeah Hinchy's run down that flank had some pace about it! Unlucky not to score, but finally smart enough not to throw a stupid pass like he has previously in that position

Yep, and led to a great try on the opposite wing.

Smart enough- or not desperate as not chasing the game!

| Really enjoyed the game on Sunday, I normally prefer Friday nights but it's amazing the difference a bit of sunshine makes.
Good to see us play with a bit of confidence and we really threw some shape and numbers at them in attack and our kick chase was good. Wire cut us open a few times, other teams would have punished us but they seem really low on confidence.
I'm pretty impressed with the signing of turner, I think our backs and half's are pretty strong and it's nice having Darnell and Wood as quality back ups. Glad to see Mason back in the team, I think he made a big difference to us. Last week we got panned when we changed our front row, Wakeman and Clough are so lightweight together, think Mason helped keep us on the front foot with his size.
Also thought our discipline was better than recent weeks, the next 3 games determine our season, I'm much more confident now than I was 2 months ago.
Nice to see us improving game by game I really hope we keep it up and this result isn't another magic weekend Vs Saints last year.

| Next week's game I feel is very similar to last season away to Widnes at this stage
We blew a 14 point lead to lose that one and slip down the table, this season I'm much more confident and the team seems much stronger and more disciplined that we won't make that mistake
Win, and were top 8.

It was great to catch up with people before and after the game! Nice to chat to folk I've not seen for a while due to Friday kick off. The kids got to run around with a ball with kids they know from the games but haven't seen much this season. Three babies - and crucially their families! Going to their first game since it was a Sunday kick off!
I do hope town going up means they insist we drop the Friday nights!

| Best Sunday atmosphere for a long time too
I guess that's what playing well does
If we play well Sunday's are great
If not I hate them for the whinging and moaning
Friday's are usually just good atmosphere
