Giants monstered us. They hardly made a mistake, we made loads, missed tackles all over the shop, Thaler was so one-eyed i was squinting but even allowing for that, we were terrible. As noted above Temata made some hard yards, everyone else was below average i thought. Bad day at the office, we better pick it up quick with the Cats coming around fast.

Positive: It wasn't on TV.

second best today by a long way. Great defence by Giants. Also out sung I thought. Not to mention sun stroke,must bring my factor 40 in july. Hopefully won't be an issue Thursday evening. Probably huddled together to keep warm

In the sense that he probably missed more tackles than anyone else (and that's saying something), I guess he was

It took a bit hit early on and I don't know how he stayed on. His try was gutsy and I didn't see many other forwards doing much.

This game is best forgotten, I am glad we only have to play them once more, unless we make the playoffs.

Had a great day and I was pleased with how we played again today. Although I was unsure before kick-off, I didn't think we would lose with the half-time score line as it was, I was impressed with the way Quins fought back in the second half though, and you scored some well made tries but, we were stronger again on the day.

Good luck for the rest of the season. And thanks for not complaining about our style of play, unlike some other coaches I could mention. Your coach and fans are a credit to rugby league. All the best. Raaaay.

Thanks guys.

I don't think you were that bad. When we took the foot of the gas for a period in the 2nd have you came at us a scored a couple of tries.

That apart, we were up in your faces, not giving you chance to play.

Someone mentioned Mr Thaler. Sure, he missed every offside at virtually every PTB, but he was consistent. He let the game flow. It far better viewing than with Mr 'I'm-The-Guy-You're-Here-For' Ganson in the middle.

In closing, you can't be that bad, look at the scores you're rattled up.

All the best for the rest of the season.

Oh, and...

...SEE YOU IN JUNE!!

Best team I have seen at the stoop this year. Hope Fartown have a good run

I was mid beverage purchase when the attendance was announced. Was I right in hearing it was below 2,000?

Some good news!

Celtic are at the Galpharm on Friday so hopefully they will be as flat as we are now! So we can do them on BH Monday.

BTW What was the point of Miss Galaxy UK ? What a waste of money!

Hudds worked him better -- and scored off their penalties.

Both teams could have had a quarterback for the number of forward passes they were allowed to get away with -- and both sides were mucking about at the tackle/play-the-ball.

We were hammered in every facet of the game. Bullied up front and mesmerised by there attack on the back of that.

They are a very good side. They slow the ruck down very well, but also speed the ruck up when they are being held down by fighting there way up, unlike us. There line speed is good and goal line defence aggressive.

On the other hand we were both physically and mentally beat. We missed numerous tackle(10 I think clubby missed) and when we missed them there was no urgency to get back. The "couger" missed one tackle and just jogged back with hands on head. Mentally weak.

In summary woeful. Well done Hudds you were excellent. NB has got some average players playing really well namely Brown, Robinson (Both individually and collectively) Mason and Crabtree to name a few.

I hope our forwards can [iget up[/i to meet what traditionally is a powerful french set of forwards-

The next 3 games on paper are all winable-lets hope we get 6 points from them

officially 2,500 which is pretty poor i thought considering we brought a good number down,
i didnt think quins looked too bad actually i think we would have beaten most teams on that performance today, i must admit i thought it would be a closer game than that after we battered you up here and i was a little bit worried when you got them 2 tries back, but alas it was not to be

as i said on another threat your fans were a credit to RL as usual just a shame the club wasnt rewarded with a big turnout, good luck and see you in july!

This is an aspect of us as a team which I dont understand. If you want to get your share of penalties from the refs for holding down you have to put pressure on the refs by trying to get up asap against the defenders. Saints do it all the time and are the smartest at this. Hudds and others have learnt the lesson but our coach doesnt seem to. Penalties are important in RL which is why BM has been complaining about us not getting our fair share, but we must at least 'challenge' the ref to give us them at every oportunity. If we cant be bothered, we cant complain, and will never be a top team.

But when dorn did this after breaking clear Thaler still ignored it. WSe scored from the same attack anyway, but their man should have been penalised and yellow carded. That was simply pathetic refereeing. Hopelessly inadequate. Obviously it made no difference to the fact we were well beaten by a better side, but it's infuriating.

On the whole we were disappointing. I would say it was the worst home performance of the season - but regardless of that, Huddersfield were far too good. David Howell looked very slow, and Danny Orr didn't have one of his better games, but given what he's done for us this season, it's not fair to criticise him at all. On the positive side, Karl Temata played very well.

Bring on Les Cats. Wonder what kind of attendance we'll get for an 8pm Thursday night game with pretty much zero away support coming.

Agreed, thought Clubb was very poor. Flying out of the line frequently desperate to put a big hit in.

I dread to think. Anyway, let's hope we can get back on track results wise. Looking at the table one would feel confident of two wins in the next two games, but surely Catalans can't have declined that much since finishing third last year? And Crusaders can't keep losing can they? There's always that nagging feeling that a winless team will get it's first success against us as it seems to have happened a number of times over the years, most recently at home to Wigan a few weeks back.

the 2 tries either side of half time killed the game as a spectacle

I thought the ref missed a few high shots but thought he let the game flow.
quins kick return was a positive a lot of awkward balls taken on the full
Giants line speed and passing was fast and hard to deal with and their defence was strong with the only real mistake leading to the quins try in the 1st half with 3 missed tackles in a row.

if you need a scape goat blame me (i was supporting quins in my wire shirt)
obviously brought my warrington luck with me

Not @rsed what inferior fans like you think, point out another fan who travels 200 miles to get to home matches and then come back and talk to me about commitment.

Is Sheffield 200 miles Listy?

Yesterday it was 239 on the clock when I drove back home to Nth Yorks. Nice to have the bottom end of the M1 open fully at last. Last time when we came by train it was a six and a half hour trip each way. Good when they win but a long trail when they lose as yesterday.

Always allows far too much messing around at the PTB.

173 miles from my house in Sheffield to The Stoop. 214 miles if I go back to Maidstone.

HTH.

Well, to be fair, he did score a try and he is a young lad still learning the game. There were others in the defensive line who were worse but I can't see the value if laying blame at such a collectively poor performance. Every player could, and hopefully will, do better against the Cats on thursday. Let's not get on their backs, lets get behind them and make sure we get a needed win.

I second that. If we hit form we can see off the Cats and the Celts and be in the top four!

Don't get me wrong, he took his try very well indeed. I'm not blaming him at all, just noting, as PP has pointed out on another thread, that he misses a lot of tackles because he is looking to smash people rather than defend properly.
