There's no doubting that the Giants are a much better all around team than us right now so I'll be realistic about Sunday. Looking for more improvement and the Bulls to compete strongly which has not been the case against the Fartowners of late. Anything more than that would be a welcome surprise. The Giants are an established upper tier side and we are in the embryonic stages of attempting to join that elite again. The Bulls are headed in the right direction though and it's not going to be a season defining game, rather a good indication of how far the team has come in a few short months. One not to be missed in any case.

The sniping back and forth about crowd size is pointless really, that has little bearing on how good you are at Rugby League. Northern almost pipped Wigan to the title while not being as well supported as other teams that year, one rival whom we spanked at their place to finish the season being a prime example. Obviously the more people watch the greatest game the better but as fans we can sometimes obsess over other team's crowd size and that's a little childish. I include myself in that.

Find it funny how Huddersfield fans are saying we have no-one in England team. Errm don't think they realise that the team is picked by ex-Bradford coach who took the SL Champs and dismantled them in 4 years

Thank god we have no-one in England team. Be a good game Sunday, if our pack is on form Bulls by 10.

Would be funny if we took a couple of thousand fans and outnumbered the home support though.

A Huddersfield fan questioning a team's away support is comfortably my favourite post of the year so far.

Well done and thank you

You would need to bring 8000 to outnumber our support. Hope you do though then we would have a 15000 gate.

Where have these extra 3,000 Huddersfield supporters come from?

I was at a Huddersfield vs Catalans game last year and the crowd was just over 5,000.

What team do you all hope to see?

Royston
Ainscough
Platt
Ah Van
Raynor
Kearney
Herbert
Hargreaves
Diskin
Lynch
Elima
Whitehead
Langley

Kopczak
Scruton
Olbison
Addy

well we had 8,800 against fc and they didnt bring more than maybe 700 so we had 8,000 of our own fans so theres ur 3,000 plus a home game against catalan doesnt appeal as much as other games

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm



2010
Total gates 108718 V 101892
Ave gate 7765 V 7278

Interesting second graph comparision given the sniping on here . . . . . . . and yet, lets be honest, the Bulls were the one's who had a bit of a shocker

But you still only had 5,000 Huddersfield supporters in the ground for that game.

My side would be this:

Royston
Ainscough
Platt
Ah Van
Raynor
Kearney
Herbert
Hargreaves
Diskin
Lynch
Elima/Olbison
Whitehead
Langley/Elima

Kopczak
Scruton
Olbison/Sibbit
Addy

We are going to need plenty of forward power for this one.

the bulls have no chance of outplaying the hudds pack. i think we could cause them a few suprises but can really see them winning this comfortably. Wigan, wire and hudds have the 3 best packs by quite a way imo and o donnell is class.
