Cant fault the commitment and effort today, feel we are turning the corner and have now had our slump

with players such as robinson, mcgillvary and wardle to come back its looking good for the end of season run in

lets hope it continues next week

well done the giants...didnt get the two points but pleased with what i saw

I am loving the positivity here! Thought we played really well in comparison to previous weeks! Thought Mr Crabtree had won the game for us I was jumping all over the place. His performances have been awesome, barn storming runs and managing to get over for a fair share of trys! Can see us claiming back forth with cas wakey and saints up next in the league

thought mr crabtree had won it for us too!!!

if only we had the bounce of the ball today, george would of been in for a try in the first half and the ball wouldnt of gone into touch from hull fc's kick off...so unlucky today but thats how it goes sometimes

still aiming for 4th on that showing no doubt.

Thought the game was a decent arm wrestle myself,must admit I thought Mr Crabtree had won it too.

Thought it was a mistake fest from two pretty poor teams to be honest- neither fc or giants are going to make anything of their season based on that showing.
Broughs kicking was off, silly individual mistakes and stood too flat poor grix left with noone to pass to on far too many occasions today.
Thought eorl was great, and Scott Moore had a very impressive 1st half- if LOD doesn't play again it will be no great loss he made one great run just before he came off and did nothing else except gift FC possession to allow them to score.

To be honest jools i didnt really notice LOD i cant say he made that much of an impact really

Exactly meast! Not sure what fairbank has done wrong- mist have made a pass at browns missus or something. Hopefully with fooey chan LOD doof and eorl on duty wed night someone will be rested and fairbank will play!
I thought hull were probably the team who played the worst to beat us this season. Widnes, Salford, kr and actually even London in the first half looked better than FC! They capitalised on our errors but didn't look that great for much of the game.

LOD has been out for two months and has played something like 3 games in a year due to injury and you seem to be wanting him to put in a MOM performance !

After two big injuries im glad he has been slowly welcomed back rather than rushed, we need players like him for the challenge cup game and play offs, if he had stayed fit he would have been pushing Broughy for our best player this year without a doubt. Come the end of the year IF he stays fit he will be the awesome player we all know he can be!

The comment about O Donnell is probably the most moronic i have ever seen on this board.

One hit he put in on Moa in the second half alone shows what we have been missing.

There were imrovements but when are the Giants

a) Going to let the opposition score first before they bother to wake up (Georges tackle on the centre was very poor)
b)stop making daft mistakes. At 18-10 up we concede after offloading in our own 20.
c) sort our the slide defence. Three of Hulls tries again came out wide yesterday. If they had been more clinical they could have got a couple more. When is Nathan Brown going to get more cover on edge defence because every time the ball is transferred out wide the opposition is likley to score.


I would like to see Yeamans first try again as Brough seemed adamant he had stopped him gorunding the ball.
