HI ALL

NEVER BEEN TO PERPIGNAN BEFORE CAN YOU TELL FOR THOSE WHO WENT WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE FRENCH
IS IT DEAR WHEN UR THERE FOR FOOD N DRINK
ANY GOOD PUBS

CHEERS ALL AND GUD LUCK FOR THE SEASON APART FROM V RHINOS CHEERS AGAIN

Just got back from Spain this afternoon.Flew from East Midlands to Girona ,went to the departure gate could'nt believe it the first person i saw was Eorl Crabtree then looked round and saw all the Giants players and coaching staff .Had a word with Nathan Brown ,i told him Fartown were going to win .
Then to cap it off got to sit next to Luke Robinson on the plane and he cant half talk

He's not scared of putting a shift in. IIRC in his first season at Salford he finished 2nd to Alker on tackles made. The only problem with him is his performance level seems to drop off in his 2nd season. Happened at both Widnes and Salford. If he's sorted that out you've got a decent player.

Well Ive just got back today had a lovely week in Lloret blue sky and sunshinme beats looking out of the window ans seeing snow back at home but it has all cleared now. Saturday was brilliant the season couldnt of started better with a win like that. Everyone played well and im sure Crabtree would of done well if he hadn't of got injured.

My man of the match though was Andy Raleigh he had a brilliant game and another one I know hes on loan just for you but Scott Moore was preety good and if he has a good season thentwe should look at signing him if Saints dont want him back. Anyway best go and finish unpacking my stuff.

I thought it was a toss-up between Robinson and Kev Brown with maybe Browny just edging it

Oh I forgot to mention had Stuart not organised a trip to france for the rugby there would of been about 25 giants fans at the moment. As for Stuart's trip there was just over 100 giants fans there.

More to do with the timing of the fixture than anything else.

Thanks to Amy Victoria for her comments. It was a good do all round. We took 79 up to the game on the Saturday and managed to drink the bar dry of draught beer at our 4 star hotel on our return to Spain. Its as well that they had plenty of bottles of San Miguel in for our Amy Vic.

When you take nearly 80 off abroad like this you can do all you can but have no influence over the weather and the result. That's why this one is a 100% er as far as I am concerned.

maybe but if it had been a different team they would of taken more that we did.

Have to admit that the correct decisions were made with regard to the disallowed tries - knock on for the first and offside by the player picking the ball up for the second.

The knock on is galling, not so long ago it might have been a penalty try, it looked to me like the ball was stripped from Wild, but thems the rules I guess.

The offside was blatantly obvious, but it was great to see the lads play to the whistle and (not) score a very good breakaway try thanks to supporting players being on the spot.

Got to say that the Giants team looked a different side from last year, and that they are one of my tips for a play off place this season. Tight, good attack with some awesome defence. Hope they keep it up and break the mould and quickly get near the top. And that's from a Dargons Fan! All the best.
