Miraculous recovery for Danny Brough ??

We need to win tonight and guarantee a trip to Saints or Cas our best route forward for me.

Connor, McGillivary, Cudjoe, Wardle, Murphy, Bailey, Robinson, Kafusi, Lunt, Kopjack, Ferres, Patrick, Lawrence

Mullalley, Faiumu Patrick Fairbank/Johnson

Should be good enough as if we dominate Saints pack we should win.

Interesting to see if our absentees are mentioned as they are just as influential as the Saints injured !!!

Sorry Patrick twice Ta'ai on bench

i would be tempted to start with ta'ai and have larne coming off the bench to punch holes in a weary saints defence.
i think bailey and robbo could do ok organising things from half back but bit worried about our kicking game, robbo and lunt would be the obvious choices but we will miss broughy's kicking game, added to that grix is also pretty decent place kicker too and he is also missing.

I'm sure that Leroy hurt his hip or certainly seriously aggrivated the injury when kicking in Danny's absence last time so he's probably a doubt to do the place kicking also.

If we win and Cas lose we are away to Wigan.
If we win and Cas draw we are away to Saints.
If we win and Cas win we are away to Cas.

Even if we win nothing is guaranteed!

does it matter ifs and buts to win it got to beat whoever no easy run in

Exactly, sod all this route planning stuff let's just win every game from now till October, regardless of who we could/should/will play !!

My point is we need to win tonight whoever plays we should have enough quality on the field to beat this 'weakened' Saints team !!

Although we have nearly as Manu missing as them !!

Exactly!!!!!!

We don't NEED to win tonight, we're in the play-offs the only games we NEED to win are elimination ones !!

Good luck Giants from all at Cas Tigers.

We don't need to win, but it would be good to finish top 4 so we get a second shot at it (just incase of course) :p

5th means we get to play Catalan or widnes at home, a win means Wigan or wire away, and our second shot may well mean we have to play Leeds.

I hope that's not the thoughts of your team too, you MUST win tonight

5th is an easier playoffs for us
How else did leeds do so well from there :p

As King Ken said, win our next three games and we're at old Trafford

why do you always have to start another topic when there is already on on the saints game?

and one for bentham too but you did another topic..

Leeds is a team I'd be happy to play... we can EASILY beat them on our day (which we have done a lot against them recently).

Yes but as their players say they win when it matters....

Yep and that's what our players said at the start of this season too....said we weren't bothered for winning league as they were aiming for the big one and would step up when it counts.... so let's hope they believe/stick to that

No it doesn't. As we proved last year.
