First of all I think it is a decent achievement we are sitting pretty at the top however I am concerned that the last 40 against Cas was as disgraceful (before I get slammed the terminology used by baloo) as the Warrington first 40.

Based on the above and performing 50% of the match I don't think we will beat Bradford, Wigan or Wakefield ?

Does anybody else have these concerns ?

No.

A bad day at the office ( one half of rugby) does not a season make.

would like to see Chan, Fielden and Lunt back ASAP

I am talking about two half's in two games consecutively the defence looks weak imo !

I am a bit worried, thing is its becoming a regular thing - every game we seem to switch off for periods, luckily in most games we do enough to see it out but one or two come to mind - Hull KR away, Wire, Bradford home, Salford away etc where we just dont seem to have the attitude to play to an acceptable level or we get to a level then switch off .

It is a worry when we come to the big games though as we saw at Wire - we werent even in the paddock let alone the race. Hopefully though the players will know how close we are now and step it up.

Our performances haven't been great for a while now, the Wire hammering and the Cas 2nd half "comeback" were hardly surprising were they ?? I'm just hoping we can start putting some 80 minute performances in before the playoffs start and hopefully collect the LLS along the way. I daren't even think about winning anything yet, because as all long suffering Fartown/Town fans know, as far as our beloved teams are concerned "it always ends in tears" and no Huddersfield team have won a major trophy since Fartown beat Wakey at Bradfud in the early 60s when I was a nipper.
Come on Fartown, let's make 2013 the year of The Giant

Agree Daz I just hope we can do what Leeds do push on and make sure we win the grand final by hook or crook !

I am only worried about Warrinton if we meet in the play off's as we already have had 3 poor performances against them this year.

Apart from that the Giants have only lost 3 games all season. The one to Hull KR was on a 4 day turn round and the Salford game was over Easter when results are always strange due to short change round.

So apart from Wire only Bradford have beaten the Giants this season when they have had a full week to perpare for a game.

Of the games left i am not worried about either home game or the London game as they are really struggling.

Wigan is a massive game but even if we lost either Wigan or Warrington would have to win up or the Giants would still be champions.

If it does come down to having to beat the Bulls last game of season i am more than confident we will have enough to come out on top.

I am really not sure playing games to full intensity for 80 minutes is necsssarily good if the game is already won. The more energy that can be saved for the business end of the season the better.

The two weeks off for the semi and the final could really work in the Giants favour. I personally hope both Wigan an Warrington get to the final as teams often slip up in the league in the week before and the week after the cup final.
