EDIT: saddened really? This time last year we were 2:1:2 and looking on the cusp of crisis. Even losing the next 3 games wouldn't put us in that position again, and we weren't that far away last year.

We'd be out of 1 of the 2 available competitions at the first hurdle. Where is the positive in that?

only Saddened could be depressed after winning 5 out of 5 at the start of the year

The Wakey and Leeds games dont really matter, but losing the cup game would be a massive blow to our season

Really? We haven't won there since 2010 have we? When Eastmond and Graham were playing for us. Amor and an unfit Masoe aren't going to have that big an impact, especially as we'll be awful in the halves again if Walsh is out.

We hadn't won the opening 5 games in how many years? What's your point? Masoe should be nearing fitness in 3 weeks, and should help the platform be laid. When that happens, even Wilkin looks good in the halves.

Huddersfield haven't started great so we still have every chance. If we don't, were still no where near as bad as we were this time last year.

Disaster x2!

Anything else going to go wrong for us?

As a Giants fan the only thing I'm happy about is the home advantage.. Two awesome packs giving each other a battering and skill all over the park should make this an entertaining game. Based on the games I've seen of the Saints, you don't come close to being a one man team (regarding Walsh's injury). I'm looking forward to this one!

If you want to even things up, you could always rest Brough for the game?

I could send Paul Anderson a letter and ask for you haha.
We have been hot and cold. Broughy and the team haven't hit the ground running for a change so it'll be interesting.
In all seriousness.. I should hope both teams will put in a great performance in and show us fans what's on offer in the "big games". To reach the top we must beat the best. (Unless you're Wigan last year).
Let the best team win.. Hopefully the Giants
