Yeah but why let it bounce? He has time to clear the ball into touch. He stops and waits for the ball. That is criminal, at this level you deal with the threat. The ball is the threat and he doesn't deal with it. If he knocks the ball into touch he takes the bounce out of the equation. You're right it was a great piece of skill and shows why Leeds win trophies because they have players who can execute, but Grix needs to deal with that better than he does.

If this was the first time and or he was a young player it would be forgivable but this is the 3rd time in the last 4 games that he has made the same mistakes. He cannot deal with a kick that gives him a decision other than "stand undert the ball and catch".

Ahhhhhhhh!!!! Common sense says don't call others out on spelling when you can't spell!

Putting all the bickering to one side - I thought it was a game worthy of a semi-final, or even a final. Massive defensive effort, some good play with the ball in hand and mental toughness on display from both sides. Despite losing I think that Huddersfield team have shed the 'chokers' tag. I didn't see them choke; they got the wrong bounce of the ball in the last play of the game.
My concern for both teams is that game will have taken a lot out of them; what will they have left in the tank? The happiest team after that game will be Wigan. I hope one of Hudds or Leeds go on and win it.

it will be debated for a while, about who should have done what etc but we didn't deserve to lose that game.
our big test is thursday now, we have to be 100% focused and i think we will be.

Away from this forum of recriminations and bickering the tone has gone from

Can the Giants win the final = no

To

Can the Giants win the final = yes

If that's not a turning point of massive proportions I don't know what is

Winning the LLS IS significant and it was when the Giants won it. IMO it has been given too little profile, which the new format seems to address to a small extent. It signifies that the team that wins it has been the most consistent through the hard graft of the regular season, which deserves significant recognition. But under the current system, the competition builds from there via the 8's and then the Semis to the Grand final and the GF will always be seen as the most important achievement. Friday nights game was a cracker worthy of a final and maybe if you guys can do the business on Thursday and we can on Friday we can have another go at OT. Good Luck for your Semi-final
