| That'll do. Bit of passion on the pitch tonight. Great result - hopefully the catalyst and jumpstart for the rest of the season. Danny, Kyle, Bruno and Sam Rapira the stand-out performers in a team of all round grafters tonight. Keep it up & keep the faith!!

| Best performance of the season by a long long way. The scrambling defence was solid and the way we fought to offload and keep the ball alive was impressive. Brough, Bruno, Rapira and Hinchcliffe had a belter though I was disheartened when Taii came limping off (hope that legs ok)
We kept the mistakes to a minimum, played exceptionally well to the conditions and discipline was good.
And to top off a brilliant night I won the half time draw!
Very drunk but going to sleep a happy Giant

| Great performance from all. Looked like a team again.
Great defence and many fewer errors.
How many drop out did we force in first half? And is that a record?
Thought his best performance by Nathan Mason wearing the claret and gold.
Brough class again. I'd make him captain again, as he just a natural leader.
Well done boys.

6 dropouts on first half according to TS. Must have been about 8/9 all game!
Key was we didn't give away a penalty and kept possession. In fact a couple of the penalties we did concede were wire kidding the ref!!!
Lawrence put in over 50 tackles again last night too!

| Quote: Hangermans "Historically, this is the kind of 'we are expected to get thumped', 'we have nothing to lose' kind of game that we are good getting ourselves up for. What we are incapable of dealing with is pressure games where we are up against well matched opposition. I would expect us to put in a good performance, as we need underdog mentality to do well. Anderson has not been able to change this 'small club' mentality, which is why we always fail in the big games.'"
Exactly as predicted! Doesn't solve underlying problem mentioned above.

| Agree with a lot of what has been said.
Johnson and Mason had their best games of the season, Lawrence was good and Brough was the difference
However, one swallow does not make a summer. We have to back it up

| Great performances from Breirley,Connor,Murphy,Lawrence,Rapira,Johnson and Mason. However my two standouts were Cudjoe and of course Brough who kept his discipline and controlled the game from minute 1 to minute 80.

| Fantastic performance. Most satisfying in a long time. Defence was superb and aggressive. As was Wires iat times, just ours was better. Brough just everywhere, brilliant kicking and great drop goal. Massive game from Mason. Brierley really shaping up to be a great full back, fabulous last man try saving tackle in first half, the rest of the team need to remember though if they make a break he WILL be on their shoulder. Tonight though more than anything showed we are a very good and fit team.

Well done the Giants.
