Quote: 40 year old giant "Anderson should have been given the boot end of last season the team to thick and lazy to win anything winning by six surprise surprise stupid imposing off loads just like last season cudjo ferris rondo should be made to play for Oldham next week'"


Oh dear. I would have hoped you could at least put a comment together that resembles a basic level of literacy. Spelling all three Giants players names wrong is the icing on the cake.

War does not determine who is right - only who is left. Thank God I'm an atheist.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_22214.jpg



The ref warned Wigan just before half time that he would be having no more of the Wigan cheating and then he did NOTHING after more of the same.
Pivotal ...
Carry on cheating Wane.
Giants could still have won but tried to play beach rugby and fooked everything up.
Another sad day for rugby ...
Any day that Wigan win playing hold down and fiddle is a sad day.
But then I don't like their ethos, I'll be honest.

We'll finish top 6 before the split then who knows where we'll end up after that but it wouldn't surprise me if it's in the top 4.

.

We've carried last seasons poor form into the new season, it looks like the team's going backwards, Wigan were poor tonight and were there for the taking, we weren't up to it and we're absolutely dire in the 2nd half, it wouldn't surprise me at all to see us in the bottom 4 this season. Gonna be a long hard season for us I'm afraid, no doubt the same old excuses will be rolled out again (yawn yawn) by our coach

Only saw it on the box. Very scrappy game. I thought we were an improvement on last week. I didn't see any lack of effort or hard running etc as being mentioned. I saw some poor decision making at key points and poor game management. We need to improve this big time.

Physically we were much nearer where we need to be. Good to see Huby standing his ground, and I thought our pack stood up well. Make no mistake that Wigan pack will splatter some teams this year, and I include sutton in that. He'll be a beast.

Loved the Smurph try. Brilliant rugby. Connor showing his class.

Hard knocks Huddersfield, I thought you were unlucky not to be in front by more than 6 at half time. If you had been I'm not sure we would have come back in the second half as we did

First up I think with the disruption wigan had that game was a game we should have won and that's credit to wigan and the players they can bring in! Although they play a very niggly type of rugby. A good side like that doesn't need it in there game imo.

We can take a whole load more out of that game than the hull game. Anderson made a few positional changes and they certainly improved things. Robbo coming off the bench was awesome in his first stint, certainly added some zip. Mull was the best prop on the park, hit the line hard made meters after collision certainly our best prop at the min. Connor is the future, a defensive mis read or two but what he offers in attack is vital, what vision for the murphy try!

We are not a million miles away and hopeful we can keep improving! I would go with the same squad again for leeds with possible changes to the following if there game doesn't improve
Lunt seems to have lost his zip and distribution speed, robbos running game was great and you could clearly see the difference if Lunt don't improve look at leeming
Koppy didn't really notice him so far josh Johnson wasn't the biggest lad but put in the graft big time for us early last year!
Bailey, hasn't found the good lines like last year, Bruno gives us little in attack but 50 tackles a game adds a lot of steel in the middle

I enjoyed watching us yesterday. After the Hull game last week it was a huge improvement.
No player really played bad. If we had been more composed I think we could of taken a 12-18 point lead in the first half.
I'd keep changes at a minimum. I'd put Johnson in, in 2 weeks for Crabtree. A younger pair of legs in the prop department is something I'd take a chance on against Leeds.

Just watched that incident when the ref called out the Wigan captain and said,'Thats seven penalties and could have been seven more, sort out your ruck and foul play'There was something more that I couldn't quite make out but that was the gist of it.He then went on to do nothing about it, strange refereeing.On the night we were not quite good enough but a big improvement.

"[color=#800000]Huddersfield[/color] -[color=#FF8000]The Birthplace of Rugby League[/color]" [color=#FF8000]They couldnt beat us[/color] -[color=#800000]so they joined[/color] !:



He was on telly and playing to the cameras like the trend seems to be these days !

Centre stage and bigger than the game itself
Penalised Eorl at one point for double tack;e /ho;ding down -but when you slow it down he hadnt a finger on the player when he dropped to the floor again!

NOT the reason we lost but when we see a game reffed without a bias you wont notice the ref !
standard`s as poor as Ive seen

It's a Team game but as usual the same players take the blame.
The game was lost down the flanks with some awful defending.the number of stray passes and fumbles are overlooked.
The new Players are still not convincing and the Recruitment along with long contracts given must be Questioned. It the losing continues Heads will roll and it should not just be Players.

Much better, but my god there's some right knee-jerking going on, we're 2 games into a new season and people are wanting players dropped, coaches sacking etc.....lets give it a few game eh ?.

We played quite well last night, effort was there we were just beaten in the end by a couple of individual errors and a lack of concentration at times. Plenty of positives. I'm sure some of our fans just expect us to win, see the reult and go and pant-wetting when we've lost !.

Spot on Daz- don't forget we also havent had the preseason games others have, in both games so far we've been in the mix for the first 60 at least.
The main positive for me last night was how Brough stayed calm- high shot after high shot on their line, holding down and wrong calls about who's ball it was and he didn't lose it- and didn't it make a difference to how he and the team played.

it's a bit silly isn't it? it's becoming like football now, fans wanting managers/coaches sacked because we lose a couple of games.
as i've said and daz has alluded to we played alright for most parts last night, but for a few individual errors, dropped balls, missed tackles, loss of concentration, misplaced passes etc we should have won, as a team we did alright, just basic errors cost us.
that's not the coaches fault it's the players! and i'm pretty sure the players didn't mean to do it unless they are deliberately doing it to get the coaches sacked.

2 games in, one poor game where we lacked match fitness another against a top team who capitalised on our individual mistakes, plenty of knee jerking going on, get behind the team, support them instead of looking for negatives all the time.

get to leeds in 2 weeks and backtheboys!!
