we should have long and horne fit for the playoffs - that is crucial

however i do believe that we're more than capable of winning the rest of the games this season. we've got Long and Fitzy both fit and they have such a positive influence on us winning games it's incredible.

perhaps at this stage of the season, being in the cup is not so bad for us, i dread to think how many injuries we would have had if we were in the cup too

I know



It was only 50p

...treating it with care now

to be honest I don't think we're missing Horne at all, he's not been the same player since his injury in 2008, and Washbrook is having just as much impact IMO

I'm much happier with our form and general play than I was a few weeks ago, Webster's arrival and Long's return has coincided with us playing much more expansive and attractive rugby.

If we can get top4 then it gives us a huge advantage, as we get a 2nd chance...however I still feel the lack of quality in the backs will keep us away from Old Trafford, we desperately need Calderwood back fit.

will be back at the business end of the season

We're doing as well as can be expected in terms of league position at this stage, but I'd like to see performances improve. I don't think we've seen a real 80 minute performance for ages. That we're still managing to win games is certainly a positive, but we need to start hitting a bit of form if we hope to make an impression in the play offs.

looks like hudds picked up a couple of injuries against st helens last night, always thought this would be the harder of the fixtures from sts, salfor, giants, and catalan, wasn't expecting a win next week but maybe now we have a better chance. www.examiner.co.uk/huddersfield- ... -26638063/

You know my thoughts only too well Wolfie, but as you know I am apparently just a spin doctor for the club


For those who had the good sense to listen to what some of us were saying, it now seems the spin merchants and Agar lovers are and were actually right !!!
I think the balance in the set up behind the scenes is dead right , RA is a young coach gradually getting the plan working as he wanted, now the injuries are healing and players coming back into the team we have started to fulfill much of the promise we knew was there.
All is good.
Top three finish for me Wolfster and a real crack at the GF

Fair points...but who do you expect to drop out of the top 3...Saints ?

Some intresting games coming up and i can see us losing a daft one and winning one we shouldnt.......the one match i would love us to turn it on is Quins away......we owe them a bloody good stuffing.

Warrington for me...if they reach Wembley,i can see them going downhill.

We play Warrington and Leeds either side of Wembley. If they both get there it may be another piece of luck that we need.

Mmmm, never thought about that, they did last year didn't they....Warrington for Wembley then

i hope they make a Miraculous recovery after our game

I think they can cope, they've got the strongest all around squad in the league, look at the quality missing last night and they still won comfortably.

If I had to place money on it Saints would be my 4th place this season

Playing no one though was they.........wasnt impressed with them at ours and they have a knack of winning but they tend to go off the boil big style.

We could easily lose 5 out of the last 10.
I'd personally be happy with another 6 league wins and think that would probably leave us a minimum of 5th.

Got to agree with you there on that one, it is inevitable that anyone who goes to wembley loses focus for a game or two .. we could benefit

we are seeing a nice little 3-4 point gap appearing after 5th place now,we are now pulling away from hudds and bulls

some intersesting games coming up in the next 4 weeks

wigan v sts
warrington v leeds
wigan v warrington
leeds v st helens
leeds v hudds

all games that will help our consolodation of a top 4 position, or even better

I think we'll finish top 5; which is progress on the last two years. But I wouldn't fancy us in a play off game against Saints, Leeds, Wigan or Warrington; so I think talk of an assault on the GF is pie in the sky.

There seem to be a lot of very smug 'pro Agar' people coming out of the woodwork. I would still say that we don't play a good brand of rugby and our success is down to some of our personnel being superior to the opposition as opposed to inspirational coaching.

Hudds haven't beaten a top 4 team all year according to Offiah, don't know how true that is, especially as he also said we've played all the teams in the top 4 away from home!
