I think this thread being posted just over an hour before the game, tells the story of how much we are all looking forwards to this match-up.

well I for one am looking forward to all the stoppages, penalties, errors, video ref passion killers , captains pointless challenges and lack of end to end flowing RL in front of a crowd of dozens even  if no one else is

Not too sure how much of a shock that would be. I’d be hugely disappointed not to see a reaction from Saints after the debacle last week but unsure how confidence will be impacted and whether the performance will provoke the positional changes it maybe should from coach Rowley.

BBC have had some terrible pics of games to show.

a couple of thousand people rattling round a stadium isn’t the best look for the sport, probably lucky its hidden away on iplayer

Anyone joining late will be OK. Anyone ready and waiting for it to start is being driven mad by a 10-second handbag house piano loop. Not sure I can stick it any more.

Live from the University of Huddersfield's library, or student union on a silent disco night.

It’s almost like it’s intentional.

Blowout incoming. Talking about Giants digging in after 3 minutes.

[Chrispmartha]

It really is a poor look for the sport

[Agbrigg]

No one in the stadium except for Saints fans. I just hope Huddersfield are ditched from SL they add absolutely nothing, give someone else a chance in their place

[johnh1]

Just trying to find something interesting to talk about - has Walmsley had a shave?

That chance of a place is already sorted- London.

I get that they wont have the first pick of the round but does whoever select the games have any knowledge of RL at all! They consistently seem to pick the worst games with horrendous scorelines and/or awful atmospheres.

Was excited when they first got the deal but they have absolutely blown it.

 

Might as well switch this one off now

I hope so, even Fev would add more to SL than this joke of a club, and that's saying something

Even by Sky standards, it's a bit early to be calling game over.

I'll take that as a back handed compliment lol.

Saints have got the Hull KR 'coordinated scarecrows' move well sorted tonight.

I'd love someone to justify it. And they give you the choice of three different radio commentaries for it!
