U19’s won 38-0 c Warrington today to go fourth in league

Yeah great result for them and they certainly look a force now they have got players back.

Its going to be between Giants, Widnes and Bradford for that fourth spot. Bradford had a great win over Leeds on Thursday night which has put them in a good position but they still have to play Wigan, St Helens, Hull and us which are 4 very tough fixtures.

If we are to make the 4 we need to beat both Widnes and Bradford in my opinion which is also going to be very difficult but we are capable of it.

done well to get back in the mix for 4th

the backs really stand out with wardle, young and the senior twins

how does it work the academy league.. doesnt go into super 8's like the sl im guessing

how many games left? and does it just cut off at the top 4 and go into a semi final between them?

It’s top 4, 1v 4 2v3 then grand final
Fixtures left are
Cas
Bulls
Wakey x2
Widnes

cheers, 5 games left and def in the mix then!

why dont the club get the highlights on the website?????

Widnes and Bradford will be the key games as they will be big four point games for the lads. Both away too- so tough ones. Were well beaten by Bradford last time (although score was closer than that would suggest as we scored a couple late on) as they have a huge side comparatively and we didn’t cope well with the physicality.

Games are filmed so easy enough to do

Video means teams can Gen up easily. Perhaps something to do with why they aren’t published.

Teams get the footage from other clubs or rfl, no secrecy pact, Leeds always have highlights of their 19’s, bulls steam their 19’s on Facebook

nothing wrong with showing the highlights like the tries.

maybe the club should look into this , would get more interest in the u19's games

The club have done much better this year in promoting the academy games with previews and match reactions posted on the Giants website. Would love to see some highlights videos as don't live in Hudds do difficult to get to u19 games especially as I work weekends.
Huge praise to kelly and robbo for the work they have done and thorman before to get a true conveyor belt of talent in place wwith a genuine pathway to SL established. Giants will benefit from this for years to come and look forward to seeing a fair few of the academy lads progress. A real turnaround that seems to have been pretty quickly created - defo the right way to go and ensure we always have a few home grown players in the first team for the fans to give even more support to given they are "one of our own".

Another win for 19’s 26-12 v cas
Senior twins
Josh Pinder
Ross whitmore
Jake Wardle
All played well
Dom young is real rocks and diamonds, Good in attack but awful in defence

Yeah. Very good win and really keeps the pressure on Widnes and Bradford.

We need to hope St Helens beat Bradford on Friday.

Huge game against Widnes for us now with a week and a half preparation.

Regarding Dom Young, how old is he? Hasn't he got 2 more years at U19 level after this? I'm sure they will be working hard to improve his defence!

Problem is he doesn’t look interested in defending, think with likes of Rhys Greenhall coming up next year he could be overtaken and year after that at least another 3 in his position

Dom Young turns 17 this month I believe so plenty of time for him to improve his alround game
