I'm in two minds as to go watch this game tonight or not.

The earlier match up this season between these two Giants at the Galpharm was an awe inspiring game which featured the very best defence and attack from both sides, with Huddersfield running out victors by twenty six points to twenty in front of over ten thousand.

This evenings match up has a somewhat somber feel to it with Huddersfield not being in the best of form of late despite a thirty points to twelve home win against Brian Nobles Crusaders last weekend.

While Leeds will want to get back on track following last weeks Hull Kingston Rovers master class as they left Craven Park very much the wounded Rhinoceros.

Could be a good one, could be a scrap for the points with sides looking to climb the table to claim a top four berth.

I'll say Leeds to just edge Fartown by as little as a try.

Weather status update and it's clear blue skies with a slight breeze.

[Tommy The C5t]

Where are the Huddersfield supporters?

I'll go as far to say that they have the poorest following out of all the current sides currently occupying the top eight.

Give it a rest will you?

It's about time there was a post limit on this board simply to knock your boring nonsense on the head.

A late change to the referee as Ben Thaler will take charge from Thierry Alibert.

The pa bloke at Headingley makes me laugh, he's so biased towards Leeds yet he does the Challenge Cup and Grand Final games.

Fingers crossed Huddersfield put up a good show as they enter the field.

Eh? Am i missing something here? What is wrong with a team line up on a match thread?

It will be followed by a further 20+ posts, where he assumes that he is providing a public service as a reporter. Get off your phone, watch the game, lose some weight and get a woman.

Thing is can anyone say what leeds team will turn up? Gives the oppo confidence knowing that the rhinos implode every three weeks. Gwan Hudds.

Leeds Rhinos 0-0 Huddersfield Giants after 09:00 minutes.

Huddersfield down to 12 men after Griffin goes in late on McGuire and from the restart with Leeds declining the easy two points, Sinfield drops the ball.

Huddersfield in trouble early on, down to twelve.

Leeds Rhinos 0-0 Huddersfield Giants after 12:00 minutes.

Leeds score the opening try but it's been chalked off by referee Thaler as a very predictable South stand shows it's disapproval of the ball.

Leeds Rhinos 6-0 Huddersfield Giants after 16:00 minutes.

Chris Clarkson in under the black dot, after Leeds had forced the drop-out from the Giants.

Sinfield converts 1/1.

Leeds Rhinos 6-4 Huddersfield Giants after 22:00 minutes.

Sean Lunt with an absolute pearler of a try as he's put through in the gap and has the legs to go around Lee Smith to score in the corner.

Brough can't convert from out wide 0/1.

[Tommy The C5t]

Leeds Rhinos 6-4 Huddersfield Giants after 28:00 minutes.

Sinfield drops the ball on the Huddersfield line after they were very fortuitous to be awarded a penalty on the last tackle.

Huddersfield slowly getting back into this game as a contest.

[Tommy The C5t]

Oh my word, Ben Thaler has given the second forward pass call against Leeds and the south stand look stunned and as I type Huddersfield are given the penalty with six minutes to half-time.

Massive set of six.

[Tommy The C5t]

Half-time

Leeds Rhinos 6-4 Huddersfield Giants

Great game if not a bit scrappy and ill disciplined (the penalty count stands at Leeds 5-4 Huddersfield) at times, but Huddersfield finish the half on top after Leeds certainly bossed the first twenty minutes.

It's been a game of few chances as you would expect with these two West Yorkshire giants neck and neck in the table.

[Tommy The C5t]

Huddersfield get us underway for the second forty and it's Leeds who'll have first use of the ball.
