They didn't look like s treble winning team this afternoon- that's as bad as I've seen them play!!!

its the cup curse, no getting away from the fact it takes alot out of a team

for us is 50/50 getting to the grand final

since there was a thread on their board about going unbeaten they've been battered twice, similar to when Schofield said saints would go unbeaten then lost 4 on the trot i think.

its certainly made the last 2 weeks more interesting

Lots of ifs and maybes but, if Huddersfield and Castleford both win their next two games (v Hull FC & Leeds and Leeds & Wigan respectively) and St Helens narrowly beat Wigan next week, Huddersfield Giants would start the Semis in first place!

on form that would be about right

Maybe anyone who can't make Hull on Friday night could consider going to cheer Castleford on Thursday night.

if our fans cant make our games n thursdays i doubt they'd make a game at castleford

We're now in the position of if we win our remaining two games we will at least finish 2nd and get a home tie in the play-offs.

Good position for the Giants to be in. 2 wins and we guarantee a home semi. It will also carry on our good form, don't think we will have a better chance to make the GF.

unbelievable to think that not only could we go into the leeds game with a chance of finishing above them and securing a home semi, but if things go well, a chance of claiming the LLS again!

and to think people had already written leeds' name on all 3 trophies!

Why? To me we look, on paper, like we'll be stronger next season. No one gave us much chance of a Top 4 finish this season, and look at us, so don't go writing off future seasons!

I think with Rapira and Hinchliffe coming in we will have the best pack in superleague

I agree but its getting to this stage in good shape and at the moment we are the team looking fresh and playing well so we really need to grasp the nettle and take advantage of that.

The lack of pre-season games, no World Club Championship and early CC exit are now looking blessings in disguise and this could just be the one season where everything falls into place....lets hope so.

The present, immediate future and long term future is looking awesome for us! Hopefully this confidence will spread and we can get some more body's down to the game to watch this team that the entire town should be proud to call there team! They deserve it!

That's 3 out of the 5 conditions satisfied!
