Would love the Dragons to run away with this but can't see it, Giants by 18.

[Bleep1673]

Giants by 80, but who cares?

[GeordieSaint]

Catalans have been dreadful for weeks; so I have them down as surprising us all and winning...

[meast]

Hopefully Catalans have one of those nights that they seem to have against everyone else but us!

Maybe Steve Le Mac will give a few fringe/drunk players a go to see if they can do any better than their big name players that usually turn up against us, hopefully we won't need to worry about the result and we can let ourselves go a bit?

 

God knows!!!!

Although I'm not sure the Home scoreboard section goes above 30 anymore, See you next season at Sale, Giants. 

[Denton Rovers RLFC]

Just think Catalans will sneak this, don't know why as they have been dog-do!

[Clogiron]

If you had to pick a team to play in the Giant's situation it would surely be Catalans, totally disinterested it seems and McBanana unable to get anything out of them, you would normally say such a team's mind was on the beach but with it being so close to them anyway is that really the problem?

If Giant's lose this someone should be looking at the betting trends

 

 

[Chris22]

A home fixture against a Catalans side which have displayed a rank bad attitude in recent weeks, where they have nothing to play for is as good of a fixture as Huddersfield could hope for.

With everything on the line for Huddersfield, you would think they would get the win?

[meast]

This is Huddersfield we're talking about!

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Catalans by 6.

[Ant]

I've been watching the Giants too long to say anything other than a Catalans win...

[barnyia]

Morgue in the halves with Albert , 19 year old brochon on the wing, romano in the centre, all French team except for bird, Tomkins, mclorum and tierney, the 18th man is a 19year old prop, 

Would be nice to see a catalans win with so many French players in the team, but I doubt it'll happen

Interesting to see how they get on.

[Eleftherios]

Easy win for Giants, Catalans have already gone on holiday.

[Chris22]

That's an inexperienced side for Catalans...

[Ant]

There should be a poll on how many penalties Tomkins and Bird try to milk

[Southerner80]

13 French players in the 17.

Hope they give a good showing of themselves. 

[Futtocks]

Only 4 points in it at HT. Mind you, Huddersfield's second try was a gift of a French bungle.

[GeordieSaint]

10-20

[Futtocks]

Huddersfield have had a few Senior moments, which is normally a bad thing.

Just 2 points in in now.

[Ant]

Leeming with an epic 40/20 to give field position, no one stops Jerry in the corner.

Genuinely good game, for a team with their mind on Mad Monday, Catalan came to play and their young players stood up, mind you so did ours.

Bird retiring means Super League has 33% less sh!thousery in it now. Tomkins could take another 33% with him.

I don't really know how we won that game, it all seemed to turn on the breakaway try from Senior, I was amazed how quickly he left Sam for dead, that said i would have him at the Giants tomorrow he completely controlled the Catalan side.

We live to fight another season, I'm not sure we deserve too but we have had the most horrendous time with injuries so maybe we can regroup over the winter, We are desperate for some quality forwards and even more so for another Nathan Brown,  where's Shaun Waine ?, he will do us if he's available.
