Quote: Mr. Zucchini Head "There are a lot of parallels between you guys and Hull 7/8 years ago. Both had some success (for you a league leaders, for us a CC and a grand final), but instead of building on it poor management sees you slip down the table despite, on paper, some very good players. I dont know what goes on behind the scenes at Hudds but at Hull it was a mixture of sacking the coaches that brought us success far too prematurley, only to replace them with an utter clown, whilst cutting costs everywhere possible on facilities, back room staff and pretty much everything else. The whole culture at the club was rotten and it took nearly a decade to get us back to where we should have been and I fear you have a long road back also. Stone needs to go, hes done nothing anywhere in his career. Get rid and get the right man in and you can build from there.'"


Who's the right man though dude ? Thorman and Robinson back up coaches are getting slagged off,which is fair enough.

I've not got the answer,let's go to Leeds with Jake Mamo and the rest,build on an improved SL performance from the last time.

Quote: roopy "I don't know your team circumstances, but I don't think it was similar.
The Bennett signed "stars" just refused to play ball with Stone.
BJ Leiluea showed up at training a stone overweight and ruined training sessions by pretending to take part, but mucking up every play - till Stone released him.
Darius Boyd collected his million dollar salary, but got a medical certificate saying he was depressed and took his wife on a holiday to the south of France till he was released.
Beau Scott and others just went through the motions till they were released.
Stone had well over half his salary cap tied up in players who had signed up to play under the super coach, and were never going to give him a chance to coach them.'"


Well R Stone said it would take 2 years, and he ain't had that yet. For the first time in a couple of years "bar the odd game now and then "we are beginning to show signs of being able to play,
It's still early days yet but all the signs are beginning to look favorable. I don't know what has brought this about but It's more than likely a combination of things, Mamo surely will be part of it, and watching Brough i get the impression someone has had a very serious word with him, He is certainly concentrating on his game more and that is to our good because when he does there is none better.
On top of all this has been the injury situation, I have always maintained that a top coach can get his team to play Whoever is picked, That may be true in certain cases but it is also a bit unrealistic most of the time.
Ikky is really hitting his straps now, and Wakeman is visibly improving, in Fact the whole pack are starting to hold their own, and even dominate in some games, instead of getting a good hiding. This is the most important to me because without it the halves will never shine and the three- quarters will be starved of decent chances.
So whatever they are doing down there, keep doing it, Lets beat Saints and Wigan and we have as good as cracked it. What we are now watching doesn't bear any resemblance in attitude to the team who turned out against Swinton, Keep it going and the fans will turn up.

Quote: The Chin's Back "Excellent result today Guys
I'm really pleased for RS that the Giants have turned it about. After the Swinton game it was very hard to support the direction that the team were going in, but since then the improvement has been excellent on a week by week basis. For the first time in a long while, the rugby is decent to watch, the players are putting in a solid shift and the coaching staff deserve credit. eusa_clap.gif

Land of the GIANTS:



l really hope Stone does well, he does not seem to have had the best of breaks in his career, l do acknowledge ozzie coaches know their game, my only worry is he floods the team with his countrymen, they are mercianery, again in general they will only give what they have to, as aposed to Islanders who seem to give their all for the love of the game.
He has good reps bringing on youth, our academy is now producing some very good lads, l think he is probably the right man to build our academy, and bring them on, we see signs of progress at Lockwood, all possitives, the Giants need to build a culture, like Wigan, Leeds, and Saints, if Stone is the man, then that culture can be started by him, its fantacy, but he could do for us what Bennett did for the Bronco,s, l could be completely wrong, he could be as up to now, a second rate coach teaching kids, but if he comes good the Giants should really get their show on the road.
