I didnt make tonights game but remember ranting on here last year after we lost pre season to the Giants. I said we were a shambles and the players looked desperately unfit. We went on to have our best season for a decade.

Not dissing peoples views but dont get carried away, its still a pre season game. Its also the same team that won in Perpignan a week ago.

Its a long season and pre season often means little. We were awful pre season and went great, I remember Huddersfield romping in pre season, then losing 8 straight games once the season started.

Dont panic people!!!!!

I think I remember your post Cheshire, you talked about conditioning and how other teams seem to be far 'bigger' than us. I replied in agreement.

I also didn't make tonights game, but the comments here make grim reading. Huddersfield last season were a fit, well built, fast team. Will be interesting to see if our blokes have put any bulk on in the off season.

With all the problems Huddersfield have had, I was expecting better tonight, it's the performance that matters and not neccessarily the result. Doesn't sound like we got either, not good for the folk that paid the £12.

Huby's looked quite bad because he was straight down the tunnel holding his shoulder, Owen limped off near the end with no help but he's just back from ankle surgery so that could be a bit of a worry.

Could be just a bit sore if he just come back.

By my reckoning you will do Leeds and will be all over the forums crowing how good you are

Re: Tonights game : Wed Jan 27, 2010 1:59 am  

It would be sod's law but I really can't see it. Leeds look stronger then ever IMO and morale around the club seems at a chronic low, weaker days await.

Re: Tonights game : Wed Jan 27, 2010 7:23 am  

It was very poor. What do we do in training, There seem to be no plan, no moves and no go forward at all. Some of the players we have are just overpaid and not good enough.

Everytime i watch mcgoldrick, he makes my blood boil. I honestly can't see what good he is for the team. He can't defend, can't catch, knocks on alot and Usually gives silly passes away. Wainwright did get one try but wants shooting for missing one earlier. Hudson looks very unfit and Clayton and Jackson couldn't bust a paper bag.

I Think we need some fresh Faces on the field to give the others a kick up the backside. What is the point of having 3 kids on the bench and one got 2 mins, another lad got 8 mins and the other lad didnt get on. After all its a friendly so why not see what the young lads can do.

Thing is CT it wasn't the same team as last week.
Last night we had chase/sherwin/owen/westerman/ferres none of these played last week. So imo that makes it evenmore worrying.
