Thanks, can't really say anything other than fantastically well played.
We were terrible, but some of that was down to how much you didn't let us play.
Good luck in the final for a Yorkshire win.

Wigan have impressed me lately. I think they could be real grand final contenders. especially since Dodd and now possibly Lomax could be out injured for a while. Most of their squad man for man is probably no better than ours. But they play as a team and have a steely spirit. You notice this when they score a try.
Our team is the complete opposite. Little team spirit. If we were playing today and went behind like Wigan did in the second half we would have caved in. Читать дальше...

Gutted that they didn't get to the final. On that performance they could have broken a record which they set in 2015.
Entertaining game though.

Bearing in mind he was kicking off the wrong touchline for a left footed kicker, with a surface that sloped off to the side so he wasn't exactly getting a run up on even footing, Smith didn't do too badly.

Possibly one of the best performances I have seen by the Giants in ages.
Credit to your fans for staying till the end. If that had been Wigan 90% would have been gone by the 65th minute with the score as it was.
Good luck for the rest of the season

dear me, HK couldn't hit a barn door from a foot today.
Can't lie, I was rooting for KR, but at 18-0 I turned it off predicting 32-6 cos I thought HK might score one by accident lol.
I don't hate Shudds, but ya gotta pick a side...right..?
Anyway, I'm not unhappy about Shudds making it to the final, good on em.
It is interesting that the two losing teams both fielded ridiculously injured players, lomax arguably less ridiculous than linnet, but still.
I could also be persuaded that HK didn't take the game at all seriously... Читать дальше...
About as complete a performance as i have ever seen in 30 years of watching the C&G. We have had better individuals than we have right now, but that was absolute control for 80 minutes, if we play like that in the final we will give ourselves a chance. Best Jermaine has played since the world cup, Cudjoe was chasing like a spring chicken, Forwards were utterly dominant and Leutele smashed the hell out them bringing the ball out of yardage. How much did it obviously mean to Hill looking at his celebration at the end? Читать дальше...

Apologies in advance as this has become something of a broken record but today could have been a little more comfortable had we been able to convert our try’s.
In the big games it can often be the difference between winning and losing.
Something that needs to be taken into account when bringing in new players for 2023 as despite the efforts of Briers we are still struggling.

What a joy to watch this mon at the moment. He's been unbelievable consistently for years now. I think this year in particular he's at the peak of his abilities, we saw this with Lockers for a few years where is performances went up a notch. Farrell is definitely in that mode right now imo.
Fitness out of this world, skill, the lines he runs, intelligence, support play, scoring tries for fun, toughness, Wigan through and through and to top it all he's started taking it to the line and putting people through holes. Читать дальше...

We should be prioritizing academy players and filling the gaps with high-quality players.
With Thewlis, there isn't a gap at full-back and hopefully won't be for another 10 years. Doesn't matter how good the player is really, the money would be better spent elsewhere.

Any win against Saints is a good win, errors where made and there are areas of improvement but the slagging off of players in this thread is pathetic and embarrassing.

Redvee slating the the young scrum half making him the scapegoat, he however didn’t throw a wild pass into touch or throw a wild pass along the floor to loose the game.
Hurrell and Lomax seemingly untouchable.

Last year, most Wigan fans would have agreed with your assessment of Smith. The last couple weeks though, he's been on fire.

Leeds played really well, nothing to be ashamed of but the quality of Saints shone through in the end.
Leeds were out on their feet in the final 10 minutes.
