We have had mid season signings before and this has nothing to do with Danny.

Come on lets be honest, Danny Brough has offered nothing to our team, as soon as we signed him he has done nothing. You can be critical of our own players its ok. Yesterday all of our players were utter rubbish, and they have a lot to prove. But Brough is something else.

Sorry but he's the root of all EVIL


You are not 100% correct about Danny but you'll find out in good time that he's unsettled the camp already and i'm sure when you do you'll admit it. He's not to blame for EVERYTHING as you rightly say and the last couple of performances can't be put down to Danny alone.

Forward pack seemed a little unsettled yesterday did it not well apart from Mason but bless him he's not much idea whats going on to be fair.

Shocking post.

But true

Your emotions are runnng high.

Not really, its just what i and a large amount of Giants fans think, what do you think he offers to the team?

In reply to the OP, no. We are suffering a slump in form. Co-incidentally at the exact same point in the season last year we suffered a similar slump. However last year we were lucky that we played Celtic Crusaders at Murrayfield, Wakefield (not trying to be facetious but we do usually get good results against Wakey) and also Rochdale in the cup. Our slump continued into the Challenge Cup QF where, if Castleford had had any nous we would have lost but instead got a lucky break with two late tries.

Spot on Mad Jack

This month was going to be the toughes [iany[/i team in SL faced, the dumb bad luck is it also co-incided with out mid season slump.

I have no doubt we will be in 4th come the end of the season, and might even get somewhere in the playoffs without the cup distraction/injury issues.

As for the cup game...

Our entire back line had a total nightmare, the forwards were average and underperforming, barring a couple of exceptions but our halves were ok I thought, Brough did some good stuff, Brown was very good as ever but with a beaten pack and a non existant back line what the hell were they supposed to do?

Simple fact is we will not play that badly again all season.

Brough is a very good player but surley its just gonna take time for him to settle with new moves, systems, team mates, training venue etc... Having said that he does come accross as a bit of a a!%e, and he has had a fair few clubs and he aint that old.
Has the whole pre season thing playing on some of the players, i aint heard anything about it just wondered what your thoughts were?

Good point from mad jack. Hopefully we will get over it. the players flagellate themselves this week and we get a reaction against Wigan next week.

After a dfeat like yesterday the mods should have locked the whole forum for 48 hours so we could calm down.

I blame C13.

Broughs arrival certainly didnt seem to hinder Hudds in the last round of the cup.

Agreed.

Why let common sense get in the way of the mob's ,pin the tail on the scapegoat'!

You've got to give him time

Right.



If you cannot see what he offers then take your blinkers off. Shall we start with Kicking for starters?

You went to Wrexham right? Then you surely saw what he can do.
