Hello.

Get off your horse and drink your milk.



Large parts of this team ran Saints close a week before the Challenge Cup final.

Like SRC wrote, the Huddersfield board assured the Barrow board that they would send a team made up of a mixture of first teamers and reserve/academy/u20's/ whatever you want to call them players. Nobodys saying the team isnt a decent one, like someone has said they pushed Saints all the way last season ( and yes i did watch the game on Sky), however the club has gone back on their word. Crabtree's testimonial was called off so this would have been a good opportunity to give some first team players a run out against a good team. There rant over, i'll go and get back under my stone now!!

They play Cas Tuesday.



ATEOTD no one could have predicted the weather leading to Eorl's match being cancelled and it's pretty much for sure that they didn't have 6 players getting arrested on a training week thus rendering the whole thing to chaos as part of the plan either.



Sh*t happens. In the bigger picture us not sending a squad to your liking is the last of our problems.

A lot of Giants fans would agree with you on this point. I am worried we might be undercooked at the start of the season. I understand your dissappointment at not seeing somme of our first teamers.



=#FF0000BUT



Due to unforseen circumstances it is the coaches decision on which team to put out and he knows the squad and the players the best. I am happy to go along with that judgement as the needs of the club , players, families etc must come first.

I have to say £15 is abit steep to watch our academy/reserve team, and all the way to barrow? Have to agree with some peoples views saying maybe we migt be a little unprepared come the 5th of feb?

maybe under prepared but it could be like the old saying.. its not how we start but how we finish!

maybe peaked too soon last year and finished weak??? time will tell

result according to barrow website



barrow 48 - 6 giants

To be honest, it could of been 60 points to 6 if Barrow had converted all their tries. I hope the lad who went off with the leg injury isnt too badly injured as he was having a decent game.

Yeah hope the lad is alright, looked like it might be a bad injury

. Was pretty pleased with Barrow's performance today, Huddersfield just couldnt handle us in the 2nd half.

Broken Leg.



McNally suspected broken jaw too.

McNally broken nose, Murphy suspected broken ankle. Hope they both make a speedy recovery.
