Sorry, looking back I didn't really make myself clear. I didn't necessarily mean performance wise, just in the sense that the majority of our first team will have featured in 3 pre-season games against SL opposition whereas a fair few other clubs have only had one, and some have even had none. IIRC, Hudds' will have only had 1 as a team by the opener ?

Can't tell whether there's a hint of sarcasm or not
I think it'll be fairly close, but i'm hoping we can edge it

Should be a good game all round, was impressed with ourselves in our 1st run out this evening against a full strength Cas team.
Bradford have strengthened and cannot be as bad as last season so will be very interesting, Sky cameras are there and we are pants at home in front of the cameras.
On the other hand we owe you for last year and suppose you feel the same.
But ATEOTD if we are to push onto the next level now from last season it is a game we have to win.
I will not be making any predictions but may the best team win.

Hard to disagree with any of that - regardless as to whether it relates to the Giants or the Bulls perspective. . . . . .
You feeling alright FP? ) came away with the points.
Adversity is a funny old thing within team dynamics. "Everyone's against us" / "people think we'll lose because of . . ." can stuff a team up . . . . OR make them stronger as a unit, IMHO. It'll be interesting to see how recent alleged events up in the north east effect the Giants. I sincerely hope it doesn't do so adversely.

Someone hacked into your account...?
Agree with BP - should be a good game. Big ask for us: first game out, completely new personnel 6, 7 & 9, away against a side that finished so far above us last year and is certainly no weaker this year (off-field allegations aside), so I'd suggest if we pull it off it will be a fair achievement. If we don't, as long as its close and competitive throughout - and we don't see any of last season's unacceptable capitulations, I'll not be too upset.

If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/
Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get!

Thats one good reason Orford should be Captain, it needs a strong character to gee up the team when they are flagging, the Bulls did it far to often last season and lack of leadership was a key reason. Lynchy and Langly have not impressed in that sense when captaining an underperforming team last season, they do not bring that sense of being able to drag the team forward when the going gets tough as it invariably will. Orford ticks the boxes for me also he's been there done, that and got the T shirt " last season's unacceptable capitulations, I'll not be too upset.'" ]

| Bloke who used to captain the team I played in, when you were out on your feet, knee deep in mud, getting hammered and struggling to breath always used to come out with "C'mon lads, dig deep. One more for Meg Mortimer!"
How can you not dig deep for an old bloke with a plea like that

Strangely level-headed post from you!
I think it's set to be a good competitive game. See you there

| Given that Huddersfield are no mugs these days I wouldn't be heart-broken if we were to lose. But I definately want to see an encouraging opening performance to put the 2009 gloom to bed.

| I fancy the Bulls for this one. McNamara will be itching to start the season well, whilst Huddersfield may not be mentally prepared for the new-look Bulls given the alleged pre-season disruption.
Can't see the Bulls being complacent after last season either.

It's only the 1st game which I understand, What I mean by a must win game for both clubs is if either wants to be challenging either Leeds or Saints then it's a game that needs to be won.
Clubs like Warrington have bought well IMO and this league is gonna be tight at the business end of the season, the more dropped points the harder it becomes.
Should be a good season
