Brough played out of his skin last year and hardly missed a game, then add in the world cup to that he has hardly had a break. We will be the only club with 2 short turn arounds in april, we need to rest our key players. Especially with what we should be saying are games we should be winning against Salford, Wakefield, Tigers, London & Bradford before we have the run of Saints, Wigan, Leeds.

This is NO dig at Danny, he and Lunt for me are our best players. However, a week in the sun with the family might do him some good (other sports do it). Lunty was right on twitter nothing is won in April but keeping our players fit and getting their heads right for the second half of the season is key.
As for “Assuming we should win next 2 games is a bit arrogant” not sure that is arrogant but the team who finished top of the league in 2013 should be expected to beat the teams who finished 14,11,12,13 and 9th?

When we talk of confidence I hope that people aren’t going to jump on the Grix bandwagon again, thought he has had a solid start to the season. Apart from mistakes last night and probably letting everything over the last few weeks boiler over and he let his frustrations out.

p.s. you can delete this topic if you want, its only a discussion.

Quote: Dannyboywt "To me Craig Kopczak was a perfect example last night of the problems that Huddersfield face. I haven't seen such a weak performance from a prop for ages, ambled the ball in and ran with no aggression. If you compare the effort from him to Crabtree you can see massive difference. As a Wakey fan I am a massive fan of Brough as a player. His attitude sucks though but I think it's more about the efforts of some of those around him. Huddersfield need to look at last season like it never happened as at this point it is doing more damage than good.'"

i actually thought it was one of koppy's better games this season eusa_shifty.gif
he's been very poor so far in my opinion and needs to step it up to the levels he showed last year.

Quote: El Diablo "Danny Brough is a heart-on-sleeve type of player. He can be unpredictable, which is very often what gives him an edge. The other side of that coin is that sometimes it can make him a bit of a liability. That's what he offers and you're not going to change him. From an outsider perspective I find him hard to like and easy to admire (I talk on-field personas here, I have no idea what he's like off a rugby pitch). He brings you far more positives than negatives. That's why he's man of steel. No halfback will play well when their pack's on the back foot. Fix that and you'll probably find that your enigmatic playmaker has less to get frustrated about.

Grix's incident may not have been "unprovoked" in the strictest sense, but it wasn't provoked by anything that a professional RL player shouldn't have been able to brush off. Madness.

He is someone who looks a very good player some days, but seems to look ordinary too often and absolutely awful on enough occasions when I've seen him to be good enough for a team with Huddersfield's standing at the moment, and your realistic ambitions.'"

absolutely spot on with everything!! eusa_clap.gif

I think its Grix who has let you down big time.

When I watched you play in the past he has played big parts in you attacking and once the Ellis incident had happened he didn't want to know. Every time he got the ball he couldn't wait to get rid of it.

Brough has always let his emotions and passions get in the way, but the last thing you want to be doing is dropping a player with that passion and will to win. Your not that far off, one decent win and the rest will follow. Probably too late to finish top again but Top 4 still a more then likely reality.
