Thu 22 Apr: SL: Huddersfield Giants v St Helens KO 19:45 (Sky)

[Just Browny]

Has the lad who does the scoreboard had the night off?

[meast]

Is Jack Welsby a youngster?

Is he as young as YoungJack Walker?

[doc]

I'm having trouble with the tele. Can't find the Terrybarrie off switch.

[johnh1]

It’s called the mute button.

[doc]

Cheers, have now deployed switch. 

[Just Browny]

Huddersfield need to get a lot better at appealing. Saints go up as a team, all waving their fists together for a six again and Roby up in the Ref's face. Giants are all one out.

[johnh1]

Mine is on permanently. Are they still as annoying as ever?

[doc]

Can't hear a thing!

It’s just like background noise . I picked up that Saints are an apex predator and everyone playing is outstandingly phenomenal

They could just dive instead. It’s proven to be their go to the last game and half.

Grace keeps just rolling the ball under his foot at the ptb , but that rule is totally ignored for some reason so no worries

It's almost easier to pick out the ones that are played correctly,  Saints are masters at rolling it under their feet as they move forward into the markers, fair play if they're allowed to.

I’d estimate it’s well over 80% of all Super League players who do that.

Indeed , I’ve never been sure why that rule change was introduced then ignored after about one minute of the first game 

[Man of Kent]

Bit of a shame that for Huddersfield. Really good D up to that point.

Isn’t that Cootes trick, dive and wave hands until ref gives in.

[Wellsy4HullFC]

When did they decide to go all-in with Huddersfield Town's colours for the seats?

[Clogiron]

The only way the Giants are going to get anything out of this is if Saints go home at H-T, lots of effort but it's at the wrong end of the field, they just can't get down the other end other than a 5th tackle kick. I don't believe they can keep up that  defensive effort for the second half, so it's upto how much Saint's want to add to their tally.

Crisps to go with your bitter, Sir?

[GeordieSaint]

Good stuff from Huddersfield in defence; Saints really strong as well. 

[doc]

C'mon Giants. Shock us all.

[Damien]

Very nice pass by Sezer

[Barry Badrinath]

I knew they were gonna score down there, the amount of times they've got welsby coming in, I was sure they were gonna catch him out at some point

[Man of Kent]

If I was a Huddersfield fan I’d be very heartened by this. When it clicks they’ll be a good side. 

[Ullman]

Sezer finally gets his pass selection right and it's a gem. Nice try for McQueen.

The game needed that, shame about the conversion.
