| Brilliant effort by all the lads today including Tommy Lee for any of the Wakefield fans that didn't give him a chance in hell of doing anything even vaguely positive for us.
Was worth the trip across just to see Tomkins being stepped by a prop, priceless moment. And it was a prop that was meant to be out till at least march with a broken wrist too!! Don't know what Larne's bones are made out of but they deffinatly aint human!

| Defence was solid in main field of play- showed a bit of nerves on goal line. Gilly played prop and he convinced me- the likes of hock were stunned by the tenacity of our youngsters. Little grix put in some right one on ones on guys much bigger than him. Sam Tomkinswas shown how to step bypatrick jerry made some great yardage and out jumped Richards twice- he also put a right hit in early on. Eden made a couple of errors due to inexperience early on but settled and helped make our first try. Eorl put in a good solid long 65 mins. Broughs kicking was inch perfect apart from one single kick. I agree with the dummy runner comments. According to @wiganrl there were 500 of the claretandgold gold- and we outsung 16,000 wiganers. However Wigan were poor their kicking game was non existent and they made a lot of handling mistakes- one in particular where if the pass had got to Richards it was a definite try. Only Farrell and Tomkinswas showed any flair

not hard to outsing 16,000 wiganers really, the only time you hear them is when they are booing or moaning for a penalty to help them out!

| Absolutely awesome from the Giants today - very impressed with how we kept our nerve at the end - great performances from 1 to 17. Larne truly is a GIANT and scored two superb tries. Signs are good for the season with all the new boys playing well and the youngsters stepping up really well.
Special mention to Eorl - put in a long stint, and came back again late on. Best I have seen him play ever in the leadership he showed and set a great example for the rest of the team.
Every one played well - great win that to be honest I could not see coming. Really glad to have been there today and that will live long in the memory.

| Well done to all players. That performance was sensational and i can only think of two mistakes the whole game.
Both from eden early on but he his inexperienced but was solid from then on and looks a really good player.
Larne was amazing when he came on. That sidestep will be remembered all season and to say he has come back from injury early then fair play to him.
Eorl for playing 65 minutes. We needed someone to step up in the pack and he did. He was amazing.
Broughy - kicking game was amazing. Every kick but 1 found the ground and organised the whole field.
Jerry - catching them 2 balls at the end, smashing tomkins and helping our forwards out. Top player and he played well.
Rest of lads did their bit and the whole 17 deserve a pat on back. BUt im sure brownyn will have them working hard this week and getting ready for the vikings.
Well played lads

| I thought your kicking game was one of the big differences between the 2 sides, Brough controlled things from start to finish and really helped you set the platform for your attack, your defence/discipline was solid. We on the other hand couldn't put any pressure on yourselves and when we did get chances we was put under pressure by your defence which was always up in our faces which often resulted in us making errors which is great defence. Good victory considering the players you had out as well, going to be an interesting season!

| You guys where superb yesterday. If you can keep brough fit you are going to be right in the mix once again. I was also impressed with Larne Patrick! That kid could be pushing for an England place at the end of the season.
Although we lost, its good to be back watching a propper sport! I shall see you lot at the Galpharm later on in the season.

| Sounds like the sports psycho is getting the belief back.
After a performance like yesterdays then we could be in for the best year yet!
However, it will be interesting to see how we play Widnes next week. Lets not waste this amazing start to the season
Come on you Giants!!

After every good performance we should show the players a video of last seasons game at Crusaders. Then there will be no complacency

| Quote: Ivor C&G Scarf "The only downside was Wane's sour grapes on the radio interview when he said that 'the Giants have their style of play which slowed the game right down to their pace, meaning that we couldn't play our game'. Priceless coming from the kings of slowing the game down! .'"
Thst's not sour grapes, it's a compliment.
Huddersfield did what they had do to to win the game and did it well.
Well done.

| Wow what a performance by the squad! I was a bit concerned when grix was moved from fullback but Eden played really well after a shacky start. Eorl had plenty of game time and didn't he produce. Larn was awesome and that side step v Tompkins was brilliant to watch and even better on replays.
Thought back 3 looked good and any high bombs were easily defused and they all looked very comfortable. Danny's kicking game along with grixs nicely placed kicks were awesome.
The whole team deserved it along with the back room staff who helped get this win. Team spirit was there to see when gilly scored 1st try and at end in a group hug. Great turn out by the fans, roll on next game.
Highlight for me was larns try closley followed by tompkins getting smashed by jerry.

| That was a huge win by your boys yesterday, already a few people on the Wigan Site questioning Wane's tactics.

12411.jpg Sing a song of Yorkshire, from the Humber to the Tees
Of cricket, rugby, beer, of pudding and of cheese
I know no other county where the land is quite so fine
England's lovely county. And I'm proud to call it mine
Where shining purple heather stretches far across the moor
And the lapwing's cry above me takes the place of traffic roar
And peace comes drifting gently, there's no place I'd rather be
Than this land of hills and valleys, from the Pennines to the sea
So when I've done my roaming, and when my step grows slow
When heart and mind assure me that the time has come to go
Then let me rest in Yorkshire, for its there I want to lie
'Neath sun and wind and heather... and a gleaming Yorkshire sky:12411.jpg |
|
| Highlight for me was the Wigan fan after the match trying to convince me and Meast that Eorl Crabtree was signed by Hudds from Wigan 4 years ago!
He even wanted to put money on it!
Priceless!
