If i was to marry, i dont know if i ought to, if i would, if i should , i'd marry a Prop's daughter, she'd go down, i'd go down, we'd all go down together, we'd be alright in the middle of the night going down together!!:icons42da_files/5417-2890lipst1ck_d0rk-msnicons.jpg



Hope the new guys prove me wrong but reckon we are weaker in the forwards and no stronger in the backs, will do well to make top 8 and poss quarter finals of C/Cup?

Need to try stay positive but reckon Hull clubs , Cas and even Bradford may overtake us next season, hope I am so wrong

HUDDERSFIELD - THE BIRTHPLACE OF RUGBY LEAGUE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_43854.jpg



Think the giants have done some shrewd business...the team doesnt need a massive overhaul and consistancy without too much in and outs will help.

maybe just the prop department could do with an improvement.

alot of it comes down to who has the least injuries, if we can keep our best 17 fit we will go well.

still top 5 i feel and you can win the grand final from 5th !!

What people need to remember is some of the players we have will improve, when you think of Wardle, McGilvary (only 1 full SL season), Leroy, Bruno, Ferguson, to mention a few and some of the new signings.

Whilst good players, the likes of Hodgson, Raleigh, Horne I don't think will, maybe deteriorate - so bar a top notch prop to cover for Griff I think we are better not worse going into 2012.

I tend to agree with you Birkby, we had too many second rows, albeit they were all generally decent, three out Chan in plus Malloy looks very promising, albeit Fa'alogo may be pushed to Prop.
We have strengthened in the backs Hodgy out Murphy & George in - ignoring the young ones.
Lee is a project, so was Wood.
Where we have gone back is Tonks for Griff. Tonks for Horne say and a proven prop for Griff and I would be a lot happier.
There is a lot said about reduced interchanges and until we see that impact I for one don't know. There was also a lot of rumours over disquiet about Paul Watson's conditioning regime - we certainly didn't peak at the Business end of the season.
One thing is for sure, we still have a lot of ability in the squad, the real key for me is likely to be attitude & commitment. Get that right and we will have a good season, wrong and we are Catalans from two years ago - bags of potential but distinctly average.
I think that is down to NB.

Bollocks, if we finish below 8th next season, I will eat my hat.

yeah, we knew what we were getting with him, old school training, he had trained aussie sides to premierships and trained the national team. However as things didn't work out, he was treated in a manner no one should be treated, and completly destroyed and pulled apart in public. This is a guy who's only mates in the country are those in the club. some people should be ashamed. But at least it shows it's not just the players who are handled poorly. Constsiant, i'll give him that. All that had to be said was that the club is going in another direction next year, thanks for your efforts. i was fuming when i heard how he had been treated.

HUDDERSFIELD - THE BIRTHPLACE OF RUGBY LEAGUE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_43854.jpg



GIANTDEE and BIRKBY GIANT spot on with the comments here...

also think we knew the writing was on the wall for watson when he was dropped from working the team before the salford game away... hopefully we bring someone better in for next year, obviously an area we got wrong last season the conditioning

when is the reduced interchanges coming in?? this could be the reasoning why we arent in the market for more props and changing our tactics with this new rule in mind
