| Another big game from the Giants, It's beginning to look like we have turned some sort of corner, I'm not sure what has brought about this change, but to be fair they have been improving steadily for a few weeks now, It will no doubt be a few things, but whatever, let it continue.
They were impressive again tonight and although some players stood out and got much recognition, they did in fact play as a team, there wasn't one bad performance from anyone. Brough was in good form and kept his temper well in check ( unlike Gigot )
What a breath of fresh air Mamo is turning out to be, he certainly knows how to back up and is prepared it seems to cover any amount of distance to get on the end of something, He scored some great tries tonight, I particularly liked the one from the offload in the middle of the field.
I thought Ridyard did well enough, he is a very good goal kicker ( which will be suiting Brearley in particular i would think ) as well as everyone else in general. Dragons look a very poor side ( and we know what that feels like ) when i think of the times L Walsh has been our downfall, to see him play like he did tonight was a bit of a shock.
Among the fest of try scoring there was some decent defense, forcing errors from the Dragons, but it was the attack that caught the Eye, another huge game from Ikky and Turner looks more than comfortable. Onward and Upwards.

| Thought the way Turner laid on the try for Brought was pure class

| Well thought we would win but to score 56 at their place was unreal. Really good team performance and confidence must be sky high for the guys now. Cannot wait to see them again on Fri and so happy to have clawed ourselves out of the bottom 4 - just need to keep this momentum and secure ourselves there. Best trip ever to Perp given the importance of that result and the manner of the team play. Mamo, Jerry, Danny, and Seb were fantastic and Turners break was class. Given how hot is was yesterday, the fact that we had little time to acclimatise, and to rack up that score was awesome.
At last we have a real chance to progress after 2 great wins and our destiny is in our own hands for the remaining games up to the split. Will rather avoid the M8's and get some measure of how much we are improving against the GF challengers.
Superb performance yesterday - more please - COYG!!!

| 100 points in two games is fantastic- and a much needed boost to our points difference. Given how we started the year just 16 against in those two games is the most pleasing aspect. I think going on the day and coming straight back was to give them a sense of going to get a job done rather than a bit of a jolly. It appeared to work well.
The difference seems to have been Mamo. What he's brought is some enthusiasm and desire that appears to have rubbed off. Can be a tad greedy for me- I doubt he will come top of the try assists list- but maybe that's just ME being greedy!! Long may the enthusiasm continue!
Still a way to go but we are now out of the bottom four for the first time in over a year (if we don't count rounds 1 and 2) -a win next week puts us in 7th. That will mean that Wigan will be the team under pressure when they come to us the following week. We could- depending on other results find ourselves in 6th following that game. I think 6th is the highest we will find ourselves in come the split - but considering the start we had that would be a good comeback and allow us to play some of the youngsters again to give them some game experience after the split and start to build for next season with some breathing space.

| excellent performance all round, to go to catalans and hammer them in that heat takes some doing, must be a record defeat from them at home.
the confidence is riding high and thats 100 points in two games.
even lost gaskell before the game and lost brough for part of it, turner went off at half time too.
ridyard was excellent, can he kick for us all the time please!!!!!
