Lets hope in-form Griffin signs a contract extension with the Giants.

Huddersfield Giants squad

B. Hodgson, Aspinwall, Brown, D. Hodgson, Fulton, Robinson, Crabtree, Faiumu, D. Griffin, Wild, Finnigan, P. Jackson, Mason, Kirmond, Lawrence, Moore, Cudjoe, Lunt, Sculthorpe.


Catalans Dragons squad

Baile, Bell, Bird, Bosc, Carlaw, Casty, Duport, Elima, Fakir, Ferriol, Gossard, Greenshields, Guisset, McGuire, Mounis, Pelo, Perry, Ryles, Stacul.

Huddersfield Giants second rower Danny Kirmond is back in contention again after seven weeks out with a fractured cheekbone.

Catalans Dragons could be boosted by the return of Jerome Guisset, Adam Mogg and Jason Croker from injury.

I think Aspinwall and maybe Lunt or scully to miss out? Great to Danny back.

Aspy and Lunt to miss out.

the other options would be wild to centre, Brown to so and fulton to loose. That way we can deal with their centres

[iBROWN WARY OF CATALANS THREAT

This Sunday the Catalans Dragons cross the channel to take on the Huddersfield Giants at the Galpharm Stadium (3.00pm). Giantsrl.com caught up with Head Coach Nathan Brown who recognises the strength of the French team.

“They are pretty strong all across the park. Their full back is a good player and they have some good centres, some good halves and a huge pack. I know they had injury concerns earlier in the year, but as a whole, when they have most of their good players on the field they play well and they have most of them back now, including Greg Bird who is near enough one of the best players in the competition.”

“They are going to be a hard side to beat and for everyone who meets them the more those better players play together, the better the Catalans will get and the harder they’ll be to beat.”

Brown believes the next two league games will help the team in their preparation for the business end of the season, including the eagerly anticipated Challenge Cup Semi Final clash against St Helens.

“The best thing we can do is prepare well and hopefully build some momentum over the next few weeks and keep improving our game so that when we do face St Helens we have prepared well and we are ready to play. All we can control between now and then is how we play against Catalans and Hull and, that’s the most important thing for us.”

Nathan's comments ahead of the game, the battle of who will come out on top will be won or lost in the forwards.

From that statement, maybe Lunt will loose out to Danny Sculthorpe.

Possibly, but we have a formidable forward line up with Mason, Griff, Jackson and Eorl, he may go for some extra brute force with Sculthorpe, which would not surprise me.

I'd be tempted to start Mason, Griff and Sculthorpe and bring on Jackson and Eorl after 20 mins for the impact it gives us.

I've obviously missed something somewhere but where's Fatz?

Migraine?

Good question.

Or maybe not
