That was a really impressive display, your forwards were relentless, and massive.

We were abysmal, but that was the best away performance at Langtree Park I've seen. Flawless. I'm still waiting to wake up and find it was a bad dream.

Faultless display, patient, stuck to the game plan. Hardly any unforced errors and took all the chances, once we had earned them. It'll be hard to keep that up for the whole season, but here's hoping.

Wanna be first to say, Massive Well Done to Baloo in his first game with HIS team after been able to do HIS pre-season work. He has identified that we were massively under equipped in the forwards last season with Brown playing the likes of Faiumu, Ferguson and Gilmour at prop and getting outmuscled on numerous occasions.

He has brought some very big athletic aggressive forwards in to ensure when we do get beat the team doing it will damn well know they have been in a game and will ache!!

1 game in and we not gonna get carried away this year after far too many false dawns, however credit where credit is due, not many will go to Saints and bully them like that this season.

Loads say we will struggle to make top 8 this year, play like tonight and will be a very good team that beats us, don't fall for the Aaints were poor argument either cos the only reason they were poor is cos the opposition didnt give em a sniff.

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!

Agreed , Flying Prop. We played it OUR way, In THEIR half.

Amazing show! I feel like I want to say Saints were having an off day, but I'm not really that sure - your pack were incredibly dominant and everything flowed from there. Absolute joy to watch that tonight, not just because Saints were completely outplayed

Brilliant display, led by the power of the forwards. Fielden had a brilliant opening 20 and the back row were immense. Hard to single out one but Chan and Ferres were excellent. Thanks boys.

WOW Giants,just WOW

That was a major surprise Fielden as a run on prop,but he certainly rolled back the years with that display.

Our lads certainly walked the talk tonight.Something special was that performance.

The boys played very well, but will saints defend as badly as that again this season? They were pretty bad.
You play what's in front of you. 2 points, that'll do me!

God Bless you lads. £6 at 5-1 I'm in heaven.

Koppy really looked the business and Fielden rolled back the years.

Lots of bounce of ball went Giants way tonight but two points in the bag and that's all that counts.

A really solid performance. Always rated Chan but used properly as a wide running second row he surpassed expectations unbelievable.

Very well done on a surprising season opener.
Shame you couldn't quite shut them out but a great day for all those who travelled.
Credit to Anderson.

Nathan Brown! Keiron Cunningham! Stan Bordman! Scousers! Jonny Vegas! Jamahl Lolesi! John Bishop! Ur boys took one hell of a beatin tonight!

Seriously though it was a joy to see our boys completely dominate a top side from start to finish in a game. Let's just hope our boys don't fall in love with themselves after that.

My throat hurts my head hurts my whole body will ache tomorrow but i dont care ,THAT was amazing, in 25+ years that is possibly the best away performance i've ever seen - we simply hammered them, battered them, mullered them whatever you want to call it- and they never even looked like scoring till that one chance they had and took it, we were ruthless and the players reactions were almost the same as the fans at times...what a wonderful night, lets hope it wasn't a one off !

WOW!!!

It wasn't. We made 2 mistakes. Jerry spilled the ball with 3 minutes to go and from the resulting scrum our defence opened up to save Saints' blushes!

Don't think you heard that...

[size=200:19zsho2bWOW!!![/size

As my 15 year old daughter would say 'OMG' their's winning and then their's WINNING I don't think I've seen Fartown/Giants play like that against St. Helens ever. Even betters when we beat them in the Challenge Cup Semi final, fantastic.

Just back home- WOW! thats on of the finest performances i've ever seen. You totally hammered em. Absolutely
awesome. The best Hudds side i've seen. Play like that on the day and i can't see anyone getting past that performance.
Massive congratulations-stunning performance!

it certainly looked good on eurosport..great start to the season

In answer to the thread title...yes, I think so - and for the whole 80 minutes too.
Wun-der-ful.
And respect to Baloo who must have looked in the mirror last night after brushing his teeth and had a huge smile.

(Pity about the forward pass for their try....)

Not just the forward power though was it,it was also the way the ball was then so slickly and rapidly shifted to the edges through many pairs of hands.Thought we had a chance going there with our new forward power,even though many,including experts, had written us off, but was expecting a much closer score as we know NB's strength normally is getting the defence right.

Seemed as though Saints had calculated before kick off their best chance was to try and offload from anywhere on the paddock.A risky strategy.

Amazing to see their pack men getting ragged about like that in contact.

Plus it was the old NB tactic when in oppositions red zone of building pressure/repeats through the use of grubbers.

Just Round 1,but hard not to get carried away.Wanted us to win there,just to get rid of that 1978 tag,also it sets up the double home header of Broncos & Warriors.

Double post

Congratulations! No excuses from us at all as you were the far better team.

Should have brought binoculars, didn't really see much first half!

I have to say I embarrassingly underestimated you!

I've watched the game back again, and you know what. Good though we were in parts, there is a LOT or areas we can tighten up in
