I always want Giants fans to go to games. Though PBG makes a very good point re where the money goes.

I will not get too dewy eyed about wakey. the ground is atrocious, a terrible way to treat rugby fans. Small suppliers were shafted when the club entered a cva and players had to go to court to get their contracts honoured and there is much more that besmirches TGG. Now that could be put down to 'management'.

But it is more than that. There are the 'fans' who have spend a decade tugging their forelocks whenever Ted is about / still needing to shout 'teapot' at England international Griffin (plus foul mouthed abuse) / insult Ken Davy at the drop of a hat / claim the giants are tenants at the Galpharm / disclose ex players personal financial details etc. Some of this vile lot have gone quiet given the dire position of wakey, But notice how they crept out of the woodwork and were crowing when opp was granted. So i think some fans do 'deserve' the crap they are going through.

I'll be there supporting the Giants U20s.

Ironic really when their ground is owned by Cala Homes.

Anything regarding our team we'd like to discuss?

This is aint the place to slag off Wakey, you started a thread for that, keep this one for the match please

Wakey squad is:
2. Penny 3. Murphy 4. Millard 5. George 6. Jeffries 7. Obst 8. Korkidas 9. Rinaldi 10. King 11. Henderson 12. Ferguson 13. Morrison 14. Lee 17. Johnson 18. Dean 21. Mariano 22. Howarth 23. Veivers 27. Hyde Spiers

not a bad squad from wakey

giants will start with first team then fringe players coming on in second half i should think

giants by 12

dont think i'll bother this weekend, i've seen us humiliate them enough there to last a lifetime

another point on the rivalry part - i wont ever forget the hatred and bitterness towards our club from some Wakey fans on here so as harsh as it sounds i hope those fans - and they know who they are - end up having no club to support as a punishment for some of the things that were said and suggested against our club and our clubs people !!

I am guessing, just guessing, that's probably why he said "some Wakey fans".

He said 'some wakey fans' not all wakey fans. Do try and read the post before you criticise it. The tone of your post is typical of certain wakey posters.

On the game itself. It is mainly your first team our reserves. How many should you win by?

Then again --if you persist in close examination of Daz`s wording --if some snidey fans lost a team to support --wouldnt the decent ones suffer too .?

Regretably whilst I fully understand the point he`s making --and indeed why -such an outcome to their sorry plight affects ALL their fans surely?
Just a thought!

it wont be our reserves playing though will it.... similar team to what played v hull kr plus lunt and kirmond

In the papers Brown said it would be a mix and refered to Lunt and Kirmond getting a game + a few first team props. The rest will be reserve players a la Batley.

Do you have a view on how a predominantly wakey first team will go against a predominantly Giants reserves?

I am very keen to see how the reserve players go against SL opposition. It will provide insights on how the lads will go if called upon for the 1st team. In particular the likes of Wood / Wardle / Griffin J / Cording / Molloy etc

yes a mix as in the second half we will see wood, wardle, j griffin, molloy, cording, faribank for the last 20mins of so. like hull kr match

first half we will see the first team plus kirmond and lunt...so again this is not a predominantly reserves team is it??

the batley game was a reserve team because it didnt have one first team player in it.
