| You mean Ben Jones Bishop? Can't see Leeds releasing him at all.
Don't know much about Sharp though.

that is the one. Leeds seem determined to keep webb so there may be an option if we could give him first team footy. I think he could have a bright future ahead of him.

It's more likely they put him out on loan for another season. Could be an option for us.

| Aye. If they didn't want to keep him he'd already be at Salford! He'll maybe do another season long loan and then he'll be in the Leeds 17, I reckon.

Absolute nonsense, Hodgson is a class finisher, he had 2-3 times second half where he HAD to step inside, if he tried to take the defender on the wing he'd have gone into to touch, but he kept the ball and we continued to pressure them.

| The problem is not with D Hodgson but with a 6' 3" that will not take a defence on, not once does Bruno run his weight ala Matt King or Gidley, if he did he would either go over the try line with 3 hanging on or create space for Hodgy to finish.
All he does is run diagonally and leave Hodgy no space to work with at all, give the lad a chance and it was evident today where Hodgy was so frustrated and eventually they moved Bruno to the other side.
He is 19 but should by now know how to run onto and attack a RL football, Hodgy would have scored 6 or 7 with someone like Gidley inside him today. If Gilmour is moved to next year then Bruno may not get in?

| Thought Bruno showed great pace and timing for Dodgy's try today. He also tackled anything that came near him and generally played very well. 20 years old. He'll play for England one day and the people that dump on him now will later say "I always said he'd play for England".

have to agree with Danril. I thought Lawrence did Ok today. I think he has really improved over the last 6 weeks he has 5 tries in the last 6 games and i think is still improving. when he is as old and experienced as Gidley he will be as good.

| As a Giants fan I hope you are all correct but how old is Sam and Joel Tomkins and how old is Myler and Eastmond and how old is Widdop? All have played for England and all have played very well, I am not gonna knock Bruno's defence but just saying wish he would back himself more in attack cos he is a lump and a fast lump at that when he puts his mind to it.

| What Bruno lacks IMO is self belief. Leroy is probably even worse in that area. The Tomkins lads are cocky and full of themselves and it helps them. Bruno and Leroy aren't but with time it will come if they keep playing 1st team and I think they're ensconsed in the centres now.
It should also be said that to have 3 out of 4 of our threequarters as Huddersfield lads is fantastic and they all totally deserve it. Jermaine's pass inside for Leroy's try was top notch in particular and all three of them played well. No weak links out there today. At times it was surreal; hot knife-butter tastic.

| Lawrence did run harder today.His only fault was that he drifted towards the wing giving Hodgy no room to work. If Browny works on him and gets him to pull the defence inside it will give Hodgy space.

| It is totally unfair to compare Lawrence with someone like Gidley who has years more experience than he has. He played well again and i would rather if he makes hte odd mistake that it is in attack rather than defence.
As for knocking David hodgson get a life. I suppose you will be telling us Brough was rubbish again yesterday.
You only run straight when you have a chance of beating your man and not ending up in touch. Would you rather have the Wakefield winger who kept running straight all game but was twice knocked straight into touch by Mgillivary.

Which is exactly what I am saying, I am pointing that out to the ones who are knocking Hodgy for not running straight (straight into the crowd?) he can only work with the room he is given.
Bruno needs to believe in himself a little more and he will become another international class Giant

Maybe we should run a book on who will be scapegoat against Wigan
B Hodgson evens
D Hodgson 5/4
It just would not be the same without a Giants fan having someone to blame.
After winning 58 points to 4 it seems bizzare that we need someone to scapegoat. How did we ever manage when we lost by 60 points

Yep. Whoever was to blame for letting that try in should be made to run naked over hot coals with a sack of spuds tied to his gonads. Spoilt my day good and proper.
Hodgson D to Hodgson B to Brough to Lawrence. Who's next for the batten?
Let's hope we don't actually lose a couple of games on the trot.
