Huddersfield (part 2) Magic weekend : Wed May 16, 2018 1:57 pm  

Not long now until we get our chance of revenge against Huddersfield.
They (Hudds) looked bang average last week and yet they comfortably made it into the hat for the next round of the cup. :

Chester certainly seemed to be targeting "magic" over cup success so, can we do it ?

The bookies think so and we are -4 on the handicap and it will be interesting to see just who makes it into the 17.
It would be great to have Huby back in the pack as he gives us some decent off load and Randall will give us something extra around the ruck.
Will we have our right side three quarters back Reece Lyne and BJB or were these players indeed, injured.

So, Huby in for Batch
Randall for Hampshire
Lyne for Arundell
BJB for MCB

Two points definitely there for the taking if we can control the ball and not gift possession and points to Huddersfield.

Trinity to sneak a very tight win 16 - 14 and Brough to have a spell in the sin bin

I was talking to my friend are we are both confident on a Trinity win, I think it will be a slow start for us as I'm sure the lads will be a little wary after last week but hopefully we can set things straight over the full 80.

Trinity 34
Giants 10

I would say Huby in for Horo. Batch to keep his place unless Kirmond is fit to return.

PLEASE, PLEASE pass the ball Bill!

Looking forward to the day and hopefully we'll be in a good enough mood to hang on for the Hull derby straight after. We're back in the stand we occupied when we beat Catalans. Late 50 metre drop will do fine again.
Picked up the "naff" shirts this week so we're all set.

I'm hoping for the same start as last week, we were 20pts better yet came away with zip.
2nd half leveled out a bit but it was pretty even, though you wouldn't think it from the scoreline.

Brave and bold

I'd take 11-10 at the moment!

The team that turned up last Friday night at Huddersfield was more than good enough to win that game and keep us in the challenge cup.
Huddersfield will have their tales up for this one, just hope We see a saints like performance and not a Salford one .

With their new-coach bounce, I never thought we'd win both games. Of the two, I'd rather we won this one. Give me a top 8 finish and an early cup exit over the middle 8's and a semi-final any day. The next couple of years are vital, where we are vulnerable to RFL decisions re the ground. Be in the top flight and with a new ground and the future looks brighter. So as boring as it is, repeated top 8's is better than anything, bar an actual cup win.

Of all the games that you stated were "MUST WIN", how on earth have you decided this is not a must win? If they win they reduce the gap to us, If we win the gap widens and puts us in more safety. Surely the must wins are against teams below/ competing for similar league positions?

I might be reading this all wrong but surely every game we play we should be focused on winning and have the mind set and focus to achieve this wherever possible , whatever game we’re playing .
