Discuss Huddersfield Giants v Toulouse Olympique here.

[The storm]

I personally hope toulouse can stay in the big time

But huddersfield are doing really well and are the in form team. 

 

The giants by 20-24

[GeordieSaint]

Strongest squad from TO I have seen so far this season. 

[Harry Stottle]

Huddersfield won't be taking this easy, Watson won't let them.

[kiggy]

Have to do it without Vaivai now...

vaivai leaving TO

HUDDS BY 40

[Davo5]

Hopefully Huddersfield have one eye on the cup final & maybe rest a few allowing a Toulouse win.

[daz39]

Weird one this as obviously i want us to win but a part of me wants TO to pick up points and get the pussies and fat unicorns sweating a bit more!!.

Be interesting to see what team we put out a week before the cup final, should imagine it will be pretty strong as Watson doesn't seem the sort to weaken us purposely, would like to think if any of the players who he is expecting to pick next week are carrying knocks he will kep them as fresh as possible and give them a few extra days.

Either way our squad is strong enough these days to not neccesarily be weakened as we saw last week.

[Ant]

Looks like we'll play a slightly rested team

If we lose, I'll take comfort in it making life awkward for Wakey

[Cw25]

Huddersfield 32-12 Toulouse

[Snowys Backside]

Should be closer than the opening game of the season but Toulouse will always struggle away.

 

Hudds will rest a few, but still fancy them by 3 scores.

Heart or head making that call?

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Heart - in mitigation I want Hudd to win the Cup.

I forgot the giants will have a weakened team out

 

So this will be close

[daz39]

Looks like a pretty strong squad to me, not many rested really, Pryce is banned, Mcqueen is injured and Fages is carrying a knock so really is the strongest we can put out.

Can't see the players we rested last week being rested this week too.

Team will most probably be

Lolohea, Senior, Leutele, Cudjoe, McGillvary, Russel, Cogger, Hill, Levi, Trout, Greenwood, Jones, Yates.

Bench Seb, English, Wilson O'Brien/Goulding.

[meast]

Could be a close game this, I suspect, subconsciously Huddersfield may have a slight eye on the final, Toulouse will have no such worries.

I like to think Watto has instilled a bit more professionalism into them and a bit more mental strength too
