Massive, massive game albeit just counting for 2 points, and NB must see it that way with the players he rested today.

Hope Mason will be OK was hobbling a bit with 5 mins to go, other than that I think we have a full squad to pick from.

Harrison and Westwood rested for Wire, vibes on Wire board are that Carvell could be visiting Red Hall, and may miss next weeks game.

Think we can win this Giants by 4.

should be a cracker like i said before the wigan game,lets hope we raise our game ten fold fo friday otherwise it'll be same result from wigan game

Reading NB's post match comments on BBC website it looks like Keith Mason could be missing for this game with injury...

bugger! ah well i dont think andy raleigh did his chances any harm today, and we have still got crabtree,faaologo,o'donnell gilmour to come back and patrick and kirmond can be relied on, but mase will be a big loss if we are without him.

looks bad for mason

was playing a cracking game too.

cant wait for friday night v wire 1st v 2nd !!!!!

Looked like his knee but hopefully it's only going to be a week or two at most.

Frikken huge game.

We could have beaten Wigan at home, we must beat Wire this weekend to stake our claim as genuine Grand Finalists.

Could the Mason injury be serious? Cruciate? If so this would be a big blow IMO...

Agree completely.

Scan already booked for tomorrow. Not looking good.

Would love to beat wire again on sky sports. Two hard games coming up for us, With rhinos after wire and would be pleased with one win from the two games!

We'll have to see what the scans come up with on Mason.

Looks like Fa'alogo may miss out too, hopefully back for the Rhino's game.

Carvell hasn't been charged and is free to play on Friday. Good news for us obviously.

sorry to put dampener on this but sky games so far this season
wire won
cas lost
quins won
wigan lost
hkr won
see any patten emerging.
mind you we should beat st'helens

This is another big game Ok its not the end of the season if we loose
but how many occasions have we had like this. Playing great, up at the top of the league, fans on a high, whole town interested, a good crowd, and then we bomb it. lt has to change sometime Wolves are very beatable, we,ve done it the last 2 outs.
Well l fly into LBA friday afternoon, and l,m going to see a win for the Giants. We all have to be up for this.

siverwood is the man in the middle , smith on vr

thats of..dont mind silverwood and smith.

that may change though

Well I'm gutted that it clashed with our game against Saints. Otherwise I would have took the trip up to watch the game. Ah well its on sky, so after our game as soon as I get in, sky+ is on! This game should really see where both teams are. I'm sorry guys but after Wire losing on Sunday, I should expect that they will come out flying and should get the win.... But if you guys pick up the 2pts then, wow this season is looking good early on... Best of luck!

well looks like things are clearer with the injuries so my stab at the team.
Wire have a big strong pack and two difficult centres to deal with so we need to counteract that,


Grix
McG
Gilmour
Leroy
Lawrence

Brown
Brough

Raleigh
Robbo
Eorl
Ferguson / Kirmond
O'donnell
Lunt


Horne
Griffin
Faiumu
Patrick


Bruno and Leroy to swap around when attacking or defending. Faiumu to swap with Lunt, who will then be used to spell Robbo. Props obviously interchange and Horne to swap with O'D or Fergie as needed.

I find it hard to separate Fergy and Kirmond as they both seem a bit more defensive than Horne who offers a bit more attacking variation as such i would only play one of them.Horne i think has come on in leaps and bounds this year

Briers out but Harrison, Westwood, Atkins and Anderson back.

NB names his 19:

1. Scott Grix

2. Michael Lawrence

3. Leroy Cudjoe

4. Lee Gilmour

5. David Hodgson

6. Kevin Brown

7. Danny Brough

8. Eorl Crabtree

9. Luke Robinson

11. Luke O’Donnell

13. David Faiumu

14. Shaun Lunt

16. Andy Raleigh

17. Danny Kirmond

18. Larne Patrick

19. Graeme Horne

20. Jermaine McGillvary

36. Jamie Simpson

37. Dale Ferguson

So Griffin does indeed miss out along with Mason. Big, big games required from Patrick, Raleigh & Kirmond then. And possibly Ferguson too.

might get steam rolled in the forwards friday night then!

hope griffin isnt another long term, hes our best prop!

raleigh
patrick
crabtree

need to have massive games

Will McGilllvary play?
