| likes stone so far
he says all the right things after games and has spotted where we lack as a team and trying to sort it out but like he says the players have some bad habits and will take time to get them out of it!

| You will never hear Stone say a bad word about a player.
That will drive you nuts after a while.

| He did request that things he said in the room weren't repeated on social media. Seems fair enough to me.

Alright for those of you who can get there Durham but you are excused if you don't live in Huddersfield anymore like me. Extra marks for getting there if you did.
Leigh is an extra 25 miles each way for me on Saturday as are all the Lancashire and Cheshire away trips oh and I have to work away too.
The only thing I'd want to know anyway is Sam Rapira fit for Saturday ??

Naive much? Maybe someone in attendance not with the Huddersfield Giants best interests at heart.

| I won't be there, but I have a question for Stone.
Has he ever actually coached a rugby league team before?

| l would not blame Stone for todays game, this is a shambolic performance from a group of players who have shown no pride in the shirt, no passion, and have been totally outplayed by a championship side, the worst performance l have wittnessed for a long time, even l feel ashamed.

The problem is Thewlis, and the senior players who have a mediocre attitude and don't have the balls to win.

Given the team, this is the worst performance for a very long time. Back in the days of Hudds/Sheffield and all that, the team was crap. They got beat because they were crap.
This lot are getting beaten because they can't be d.
I think, therefore, that this may be the worst performance I've ever seen from the Giants.

Ultimately the coaches the players and the conditioning staff are all chosen based on certain criteria.
The club has been mismanaged for a long time.
Thewlis needs to go
The debacle we have seen today has been building up for the last four seasons. Really poor decision making by the club leaves us in a position where we are left with nothing to even feel confident about for the future whilst he is at the helm

It's just that Stone's been around for about a month now, and he's had a couple of games to get to know the players. I'm not expecting miracles in that time, but his team just served up the worst half of rugby league I've ever seen from a professional team.
So, you know, is he actually any good?

| As awful as it was. You can't blame Stone for nobody claiming the first kick off, or conner kicking out on the full the resulting kick off, or Murphy dropping the ball in our first attaching set. Attitude from the players stinks

No but you can blame him that in the biggest of games we took 50 minutes to turn up except for like at Salford a five minute period where we scored 10 quick points until we/Brough did something stupid !!
Yes the players were dire but I expected to see us breathing fire but nooo once again we were 'rabbits in the headlights'

| I wonder if he did allude to how our players react under pressure, it's always been a problem, but this season it has been the worst ever. We've got 3 games to sort it or it's lower tier Rugby for us.
