What's the word on Bruno? Still injured,or recovered and just out of favour?

Some don't rate him that high because he is not a dynamic ball carrier, but his work rate on defence can never be underestimated.

Thought it was a long term job – July / August.
Needs microfracture knee surgery.
Had a knee infection so had to wait for surgery last I heard.

long term injury, wont see him till super 8's ( middle 8's!!!)

Cheers for that,must have missed the fact it was such a long termer.

I'm thinking the Examiner has scaled back on coverage of the Giants,there used to be a different story line everyday on the internet pages,now you may get one or two a week.

It's all about town and their promotion as far as the examiner are concerned. Giants are an after thought

I've noticed that aswell.

The Examiner seem to have given up on the Giants.

Not really surprising when you think about it. Football is Mega , League in general is constantly struggling to get more than 5/6 teams who can compete. Town must have 3/4 times as many fans as Fartown, on top of which, what is there to say about us, The club tell us very little , Why would anyone else bother.
Myself i wouldn't go watch a Soccer match if they paid you in and gave you a meal, But fair play People like what they like, and with Town doing so well, why wouldn't the Examiner give them plenty of coverage. It's how things are.

There's still no report of the St Helens game on the Examiner website.It might be different in the printed editions.

Probably pick up when Towns season ends, But they are likely to be poor reading till something changes. Still they should give the club some coverage.
