I would guess that Hughes would've gone to Warrington regardless because the location suited his personal circumstances better and Warrington were obviously going to be there or thereabouts this season.

I think jools needs to be more pragmatic. Whilst I totally accept that the club have had their fair share of bad luck this season, there is clearly something wrong with the administration behind the scenes and it's holding the club back. It needs facing and dealing with.

The club should have a bigger/better marketing department.
Brett Hodgson should not have been let go like he was.
Keith Mason should not have been on the silly salary he was.
Keith Mason should not have been unlawfully sacked.
Larne Patrick simply should not have been let go with the current squad situation.

You can't defend these points without making yourself look silly IMO. They need to do something sharpish because all I see is a club going backwards, fast. And I take zero pleasure in that, for the record.

There we go again that "let go" phrase that makes it sound like the player is a possession and has no say in his own future!
would anyone expect to go into work, hand in your notice and expect to be told- no sorry you can't go- you have to stay and work for us- We are not "letting you go". They might offer you more money- but you might decide the prospects are better elsewhere. Or there's a particular guy you think can develop your career. Or it's just a bit more convenient for you as its closer to home and the costs of travelling would be cheaper....

You keep Missing the point or more likely ignoring it.

Why did we bring him back from Wigan and not sign someone else /

You're just being stupid now.

how do you know we didn't try?????

Lol-
So now you are throwing insults around.
I have my opinion, and, despite what you think, and what you say, I allow others to have theirs. However I am forceful in putting forward my own view, and forceful in disagreeing with others. Doesn't mean I don't think they should speak it.
You call me out- but then call me stupid because you disagree with my OPINION. Good of you to add some maturity to the debate.

Because Wigan said they wanted to keep him but we insisted on bringing him back.

Someone st the Giants insisted we bring large back !11111

Apologies. Stupid is the only description I could muster up for an attempt to compare the fixed term contract of a professional sportsman with that of a permanent contract of your average working man. There is no comparison.

You crack on, I'm done now. It seems like every thread with you is some sort of battle and frankly I can't be bothered.

This may not be the biggest board in terms of posters but we definitely have the best spin merchants.

might have wanted to give roberts his chance as he performed well in the autumn internationals for ireland

and maybe we didnt know what was going to happen with ferres at that time then we we did not many players were available to sign

Agreed, he's well past his best and goes down 2 easy, then takes forever to get up ( defence all ready set) he's been a great servant for the club in his time but I feel that is the reason he is still playing , I would have replaced him at the end of the 2013 year and given him a role somewhere behind the scenes or he could pursue his TV career., also he could have left on a high. That seems to be the problem at the giants at the min keeping average players and trying to win the Gf with them ( hence bottom of the league ) , what makes it hard to take for me was we where so close and now we seem to have a mountain to climb agen. Obviously I will still show up ,home and away week in week out , but it dose grate on even the loyalist supporters ,some of the strange decisions made at the club over the last 2 years.!

Did OK for his try tonight

I think people have been saying the same thing about Eorl for about 5 years now

Yet his stats still put him up with the best, and tonight he ran some hard yards. He always does

Pulled one out of the bag for us 2nyt but I stand by what I said , stats or no stats , anyway not guna put a downer on what was a good nyts you be a giants fan.
