Our defence doesn’t worry me in the slightest tbh. I’ll go all Saints fan here and say we’ve been disrupted and we’re constantly shuffling things around, especially in the spine positions, with bans for huge defenders for us like Powell and Smithies and that’s not helping but it’s mainly just a concentration issue IMO. In the knock out games this season in the cup we conceded 0,6,18 and 14, so never over 20 points and an average 9.5 points per game (plus one of Saints try’s was offside icon_wink.gif ).

Quote: Stu M "I was surprised with Watson’s comments this week when he implied that Saints and Hudds are the two best teams.

Wigan are comfortably our nearest challengers and us and Wigan are the two best teams in the comp by a distance. It makes for a fascinating end to the season, a lot will depend on injuries. We lose Welsby or Lomax and we are potentially done. Wigan lose French or Field and it could be similar.'"

I think the full quote of Watson was along the lines of Hudds and Saints being the best two teams in terms of field position and turning the ball over, and I agree with him. Wigan have suffered that fate in games against both teams, with them only being able to get over the line in one game, but both really tight, nip and tuck games.

That’s why I say Hudds will be a challenger to Saints; their grindy style of rugby is suited to the play offs.

Huddersfield haven't played well since the Challenge Cup Final

They did for a couple of weeks, in fact they were absolutely superb but it then feels like they’ve hit a bit of a wall. It’s understandable I suppose. I think a few absences have hurt them but everyone has those.

Quote: Stu M "Churlish of me a little, the morning after French scores 7 tries and you win 60-0 but it seems like winning with 12 men isn’t for everyone….

64 mins with 12 men and 11 men for the last 8 and we nil an in form Hudds team. That’s exceptional. Absolutely incredible.

*also lost Hopoate after 3 mins so was down a sub for 77 mins too.'"


Its not churlish of you one bit, you notice that French had made history and Wigan had won 60-0 and the talk is all about French & Wigan (Especially on this board) that you felt left out so much that you was moved to mention how well Saints had performed.
Dont come back and say I am being sarcastic as I dont care you could have just said well done French and left it at that.
If it was in reverse and we went on Redvee do you think the response would be as accommodating.

Fair point.
