poor dominic but i do agree if he looks fitter moa. can see maloney go on loan if we have no injuries

According to Giants Page..

We Lost 28-22

I was thinking the other day, who contested in last seasons reserves GF and who won?

Huddersfield Giants Reserves ( 18 ) 28

T: Griffin J 2, Hodgson, Lopag, Burton.
G: Barber 4.
DG:

Hull FC Reserves ( 10 ) 22

T: Green, Smith, Hodgson, Briscoe.
G: Whiting 2, Green.
DG:


Nice to See Whiting Back!


Another Briscoe!! Hehehe

Decent game to watch, Hudds deseved to just shade it
Dom played ok had a good run out against Griffin
Rich did ok nothing fancy looked a bit rusty took over kicking duties and kicked 2 from 2 including one from the touchline.
Forwards were outsized but the pleasing thing was the team never gave in and could have nicked it in the last few minutes
A grade one ref ran the line and said the game was faster than the Northern Rails Cup games hes been doing
Bloody cold night but it was nice to put names to faces with the young lads

great just to see him get a game under his belt.

Whiting at centre, NO NO NO he's a backrower!!!

Am i right in thinking that we have one of the youngest under 21 sides in the comp this year, dont recognise a lot of those names in the pack apart from Hodgson and Maloney of course!

Bells been around for years

Didnt you recognise the number 15

Yeah course, but i was talking mainly about the forwards

Thought he may have played FB to get in the mindset!

The reserves are gunna struggle big time this year.

Agree! Very Young Side! Most of them could still play 18's!!

Ohh Well in at the Deep end and all that!

Seems to be too many of the U18's in there and look a very small team.

Love to have seen the guys stay in the 18's Would of been a force this season!!, But suppose they gotta step up to the plate!..

FB or loose forward for mine

As long as the players improve and kick on, the team standings are fairly irrelevant imo.

Totally agree. Its about development at that level and lets be honest, 17 year olds vs 20 year olds will be a difference, but they will also learn faster.

Both reserve and Grand Finals were contested by Wigan v Saints
Wigan beat Saints 32 - 10 in the reserve final
Saints beat Wigan 31 - 24 in the academy final.

Makes a change of Hull been there I suppose!

I see the report says Whiting came through the game 'relatively unscathed'. Can we really be any vaguer than that?

bells been there 3 or 4 years i think

means he still has the standard number of arms and legs, and all his facial features are where they should be.

Which is never a mean feat after an evening in Huddersfield
