| Looking forward to a good partisan atmosphere on Friday night.
After the disappointing lows of the last two months, followed by Nathans andthe players claims that lessons have been learnt and the next game will be better etc etc, there is a final chance on Friday to send most supporterts home with a big grin on their face, and the beginning of a good weekend.
One last big effort lads, please for the galpharm faithful.

| Quote: fartown since 1961 "Well Kens aim was to be Yorkshires top team and its up for grabs Friday night its currently 2-2 one win apiece one 4th place one challenge cup final and the decider is a play off game which is sudden death.
Can we find from somewhere a decent performance? In order to beat Leeds we need to set off on the mark and play to it for 80 minutes....
Will the public of Huddersfield turn out in numbers to support us or we will be out numbered by the Leeds support as its 'pay on the gate.' £15 for such an important match is 'peanuts' there should be 15,000 but there'll be less than the Leeds super league match mainly missing from our ranks I would guess. Before any one complains look at the Cas match and the Catalans matches our last home play offs and our home challenge cups where we didn't turn out in droves because its pay on the day !!
It will be a very bitter pill to swallow if we don't turn up and 'bust our guts' for 80 minutes beacuse in truth we will have failed every objective for this season falling from the heights of the early season to the depths of Friday night.....
I will be there cheering and hoping for the best...just hope we produce it even if we lose its heads up time and go for it.... as they say 'lets go up or down with all guns blazing all flags flying' !!!!!!
After Friday night win or lose the current squad and Nathan Brown have to face judgement time..... and it can't be good if we get thrashed or don't perform...'"
Nothing wrong with Ken's ambition to be the top Yorkshire club, but I reckon despite one good season and getting a 50 year monkey off your back, he's going to have to wait a wee bit yet before we relinquish our Title.
Look on the bright side, you're way ahead of the rest of the County!

You have already relinquished your title as top Yorkshire Club. you finished behind the Giants in the League.
And given that your side is more like the cast of dad's army than a rugby team then you won't be getting it back soon.
Don't panic Captain Sinfield, Don't panic !

| Quote: ragman "there are eight of us die hard fartowners , home and away fans , but this friday we are waiting to see who the ref is going to be before parting with ticket money , we all believe that ganson destroyed the giants will to play last friday , making them afraid to put a foot wrong , childs is a similar ref , if either of them are involved in this weeks game then we are not parting with our money , realy sickened for our lads and the fans who travelled in that weather last week and had to put up with that rubbish reffing ,'" Am I reading this right? so you are saying that depending on who the referee is you might not attend the game!. I went to Warrington and was as miffed as anyone and without having a go at you personally which I would never do I think you present a pretty p*** poor argument for not attending the game and SUPPORTING THE TEAM. If you are as 'die hard' as you say then can I suggest you and your 7 seven friends be the bigger people get down on Friday and support the lads and forget the referee as we can't influence them. Its hardly any wonder we have a bad reputation with opposing teams supporters that apathy such as this.

| Cant believe what I am reading! You either support the Giants or you dont. It wasnt that long ago when we didnt even make the last eight. NB has done a fantastic job. Yes the results recently have been poor but it only takes our luck to change and the confidence will flow (along with the fantastic rugby we saw ealrlier this year)
Its time for fans and the team to put up or shut up - I will be there with all my family - Go Giants

Our game against you 2 weeks ago... Ave age of starting backs and forwards.
Leeds: Backs 25.4
Forwards 29.1
Hudds: Backs 24.9
Forwards 28.3
Hardly a massive difference is there? And that was with Watkins out of the backs and Sinfield at 30 playing Stand off.
Next year Leeds could, and probably will see on many occasions a team lining up like this....
Smith (25)
BJB (23)
Watkins (20)
Hardaker (19)
Hall (23)
McGuire (2icon_cool.gif
Burrow (2icon_cool.gif
------------------------
Total of 166 (ave 23.7)
------------------------
Bailey (27)
McShane (21)
Peacock (33)
Ablett (25)
JJB (30)
Sinfield (30)
-------------------------
total of 166 (ave 27.7)
-------------------------
Griffin (30)
Amor (24)
Delaney (25)
Hauraki (26)
-------------------------
Total of 105 (ave 26.25)
-------------------------
Total overall age 437 (ave 25.7)
Yes I bit, but I just wanted to correct a few false assumptions that the majority of our team are past it. Of last weeks squad I would say only Webb and Ali are past it, and even Ali still has his moments.

| According to the KB in the rlExaminerrl the "Warrington game forgotten about by Huddersfield Giants",
I most sincerely hope not otherwise we could well be in for a repeat performance.

| How did Mason run against Wire? I know he came back against Leeds and should alot of guts. Was on a hiding to nothing, kept getting well looked after and took a couple of pounding hits. But he kept looking for the ball and looking for work. Which I was impressed with on a positive note. Did he shake off the ring rust against Wire?
