Saints to win 10-8 that is players left on the pitch

[tiffers]

Hudds to make a statement

[Futtocks]

I picked Saints in the poll, but genuinely don't know what to expect from Huddersfield this season.

[Barley Mow]

Is this one on the radio?

Timewise it would fit in pretty well as something to listen to on my drive to Wigan this evening.

[Archie Gordon]

Looking forward to this tasty hors d'oeuvres. I think/hope Huddersfield can spring a surprise.

Maybe the horses doovers but this is an interesting one , I’ll go saints to nick it 

[Northern Eel]

Saints too strong. Might be a late win though.

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Saints by 10.

Sironen reefs the ball out of the tackle but it's deemed a knock on.

Sorry, no blinkers, only just started watching!

[Old Frightful]

One thing that the refs do actually seem to be getting better at this year is spotting the marginal forward passes.

(Righty ho, I think I need a lie down coming up with summat positive to say about our officials after last night's refereeing fiasco!)

[Old Frightful]

Video Ref is Marcus Griffith?

Surprised Matautia wasn't sent off.

[GeordieSaint]

0-12 HT I reckon.

No flies on you mate.

      Can't get into this game after all the excitement last night.

[graveyard johnny]

WOW - what a dull affair - even the video ref sounds depressed

Don't know what it's like in the ground but it's coming across as incredibly flat on the TV. Sounds like a library.

[Ant]

Any explanation on t'telly as to no red card? 

 

Giants defence okay, attack less so. Someone tell Watto that Tui ain't a fullback. 

Frustrating half, score flattering Saints in a game I'm expecting the Giants to lose

It's not quiet in the ground  if that helps

Pretty sure I heard you tapping on your phone just then.

I can hear plenty of chanting and the cowbell, but it sounds very distant.

Just a question of levels on the mixing board. The cowbell at Huddersfield is always a good gauge of the sound set-up. It's not nearly annoying enough today.
