| will be a tough game, i am worried that if brough brings his kicking game with him then that could be the difference to the two sides,the opening 20 minutes should provide all the pointers as to how the game will go.i expect us to be kicking early quite often to turn round that big pack of theirs,might not be a classic but scoring plenty of tries last week,regardless of the opposition should have our backs confidence up again.

I can see what you mean but why are you so confident, I am terrified that club has done nothing but good since brown left I agree with your comment on Brough he has nothing on Briers but Briers isn't playing

| Huddersfield should be admired for what they have acheived on the field in recent years, even if ultimately they've come up short in terms of silverware. However - there must be alarm bells ringing off the field. Only 5,500 turned up on Saturday to see the top of the table team play another strong club, Hull. If Huddersfield - the birthplace of RL, in the heart of West Yorkshire right next to the M62 is not RL heartlands, what is? So why can they only muster such small crowds to a quality stadium to watch a team at the top of the table? Is the club not working hard enough in the community?
To be fair to Huddersfield, crowds seem down at all clubs this year. RL is facing a big problem.

| It's not a rugby town. And tbf how long did it take wire to build up crowds- that only increased after success and you were trying for a lot longer than we have!

Actually the new stadium was the major factor in building up the crowd. Then the recent success boosted it again.

We never get a good crowd when we are on TV, and the travelling Hull support was the smallest I have ever seen at our place.
People probably think if they have paid SKY subs they might as well watch it at home for a lot less. And season ticket sales were down as people had to fork out double what they paid the season before. Had it been on Sunday I think we would have had 7-8000.

It used to be, until we started bobbing along at the foot of the table for years.

| It wasn't a rugby town long before our bobbing at bottom of SL-Crowds of <500 at fartown! It hasn't been a rugby town in all the time I've watched- and I'm really old according to my kids!

We were averaging 10k + along time before any success.
We got all these Giants fans on here again, talking smack, just like last year. I've no doubt you will be trophyless and floundering in around 5th position come September.

| It's alright talking about our crowds based on Saturdays attendance but Huddersfield Town had played Leeds Utd earlier in the day, Hull City had been at home so the 5,250 core support from Huddersfield plus the 250 from Hull reflected that plus the Wales v England 5 nations match that was on at the same time more or less and the crazy Sky kick off time. There is a crossover between Town and the Giants and people won't pay for both.
The Wigan match on a Sunday there was 8,200 and the Bradford match again a Sunday we got 7,300 pretty much on par with last year. Not OTT I agree but after last season under Nathan Brown understandable and will rise if we keep consistently winning more than we lose !!

You obviously don't know what you are talking about and know absolutely nothing about the history of either Warrington or Huddersfield.

He's more like the Missing Link with that neanderthal forehead of his....You know those stages of man when you see a demonstration of evolution from the ape to the homo sapien...Danny's the third in line, walking but not quite upright.

If you can't spot him, he will be stood next to Benny Westwood.
