| Well you could have written the game report at 7pm last night a spoiling, niggling game where the away team slowed it down and then speeded it up to suit.
They had a game plan not a pretty one but one that worked. From the early cheap shots on Brough, after he had kicked to test how far the referee would let them go, to feigning injury to slow the game down when we threatened to get into it.
They compounded this by sticking to the ball like glue when in possession and almost forcing us to chase a game that didn’t need chasing just patience and managing the mess until the chances came.
We spurned the first one with a kick to level the scores at 2-2 running it and coughing up possession on tackle 2, stupid when having defended like trojans in the first half when down to 12 and criminal in a knockout match that was expected to be close.
We took the second one to go 6-4 up and first Seb coughed it up on tackle 2 after the kick off and Darnell once again made a beggar of a high ball and we were 6-10 down just truly barmy on our behalf and we never really recovered as they were smarter than us.
Yes you can point out some of Gareth Hewer and his teams oddball decisions, the Cats gamesmanship but all in all the better team won against the ‘headless chickens’ proving that even an ugly game plan is better than seemingly not having one at all.

???? Wigan claim average attendances have INCREASED in the last two years- they put that in part down to changing games to a Sunday.....

With due respect jools comparing Giants and Wigan is like comparing Sausages to Fillet steak, for all sort of reasons, on and off the pitch.

Huddersfield Giants - "We know our place": |
|
| Somewhere I have a sports encyclopaedia from the late fifties and in the rugby league section it has a guide to all the clubs. For Huddersfield it says something like “The most glamorous and decorated club in the game, only Wigan are rivals”
Somehow, it all went badly wrong at Fartown.
