Fri 18th Apr: SL: Leeds Rhinos v Huddersfield Giants KO 17:30 (SS+/SL+)

[Josef K]

This could be painful for Fartown, Leeds by 32. 

[Chrispmartha]

We will again make hard work of it but will ultimately be too strong for Hudds.

[Tommy Johnson]

Unfortunately I think this could be another embarrassment for the bottom of the league club.

The two loan signings from from Hull Kingston Rovers to the Giants both unavailable due to sustained injury (broken foot )  and failed HIA.

Leeds win .

Probably another battling performance by our Reserves/Academy but another loss.

Thankfully i'm working so don't have to endure (not, in that away end) seeing it.

Has it been conformed  that Huddersfield are playing their reserves ?

Considering that 60% of our 1st team are injured we don't have any choice.

If only 60% of the first team are out why would Huddersfield field a reserve team?

Huddersfield academy play Leeds at 3pm

You have to feel empathy for Luke Robinson and the Giants with there injuries, not a lot he can do. But Leeds can always muck it up when we are expected to win handsomely.

Ok ok, we aren't 'officially' playing our reserve team, we will be playing a team made up of mainly lower end squad players and reserves players.

It's more a figure of speech than an actual fact.

Thanks Darren. I didn’t know if Robbo was expecting the academy lads to play two consecutive games as they play Leeds at 3 pm.

so it’s lower end squad players who will be playing, the same as any other Superleague club would have to do.

Yes, and as any other clubs fans would say ..."they are having to play their reserves/kids".

Stop being facetious

 

 

And it's Daz, please!

Think your missing my point Darren. Huddersfield reserves play Leeds reserves at the Arthur Miller ground in Leeds on Friday at 3 pm.

It would be some muck up to lose this one, even if Frawley gets a game!

Most likely he will Brad Arthur knows better than me. But I don't know what he brings to the party ?

Makes you wonder if they are related.

Leeds by 20+

[bratman]

Some huge gaps opening up in the Huddersfield defence already

[Click]

That was like slow motion watching Frawley (?) attack the line there.

Huge gaps everywhere, but he managed to be slow enough to fail to score 

[bratman]

Huddersfield have done well to keep it 0-0

[corvusxiii]

Shame, I was enjoying the 0-0.
