| Quote: 'Hitman' Norvern Soul "Really? That old chestnut? Hudds have played some really strategic, disciplined and at times open, attractive Rugby this year. That little run-a-round/inside ball combo in the semi final was poetry in motion.'"
To be honest as much as they have improved they have benefited more than anything from the RFL's decisions to have an unpoliced play the ball this season. They can put 4 men in the tackle and take two minutes to get up without any fear of being penalised.
Their attacking has impressed me more than their defending this season. Their 'd' is broken completely open by a strong referee and there are enough chinks for Briers' to exploit with kicks. |

We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_12937.jpg |

From what I've seen, it's just dominant, NRL-esque ruck defence, nothing illegal, it's just that in this country, we are obsessed with 3 second play the balls and dummy half scoots, as opposed to actual creative halfback play and strategic attacking structures. Some people don't like having to wait a couple of extra seconds for the play the ball, but those people are often sycophant bandwagon jumpers who love a good moan; the sort who bemoans the choice of referee [ievery[/i week, despite it being a different referee. |

Exactly how are they 'more deserving'? Remember the money they got from the Shuddersfield Eagles 'merger'? Or what about several years not being relegated from SL as teams below did not have 'good enough facilities'?
I'm pleased we have your support but I don't understand that piece of thinking. |

Well said sir. Add to that, their dreadful support.

All the best on Saturday. I hope you all have a great day and show those dead-head London soccer supporters how real sports fans behave.

Maybe after what happened at West Ham the other night it's time for all RL fans to forget their petty differences for a day and show Football that you can be a fanatic and a decent person too.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.
Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king"
'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure'
'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it'
Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3632.jpg |

| Quote: Asgardian13 "It's interesting to see the general attitude on each side of the Pennines. Most Yorkshire ( and 'old Yorkshire' like Humberside fans ) are sticking with local roots and expressing support for Giants as the Yorkshire team - including a good friend of mine from Cas, for instance. Most 'old Lancashire' fans ( there are not many RL teams actually in Lancashire these days ), seem to prefer to keep the chip on their shoulders and hatred of a local rival means they prefer to go with Hudds also - notably no-end of Salford and Wigan fans. Probably means we'll have more dedicated fans at Wembley but the majority of 'unattached' fans will be backing Giants.'"
If it was Wigan v Hudds who do you think Wire fans would support ?? |

Been on the Giants page with loads of "do it for Yorkshire" rubbish.
This Yorkshireman and his missus want the Wire to lift the trophy against the most up their own s (even though we've won sod all yet) club ever.
Come on Wire, show the world that there's more to RL than the Huddersfield grapple tackle plan.
