That is a great video. Definitely helps to put us in the mood. If you could get permission from the club and include a few BBC clips of big hits and tries from the semi final then it would really be incredible.

Cobi and I are going!! What excuse could I have after making it over to Warrington in such a short time like I did!!!
I suppose I could the excuse that I'm saving up for my day trip to Dublin next month but nah!!!
It's going to be quite a night regardless of the result, though we'll have the Sky commentary reminding us that it's the final dawn at that stadium and the Giants can't be the party poopers!!!

I'm going. Went last time against Saints in the play-offs, but I have a sneaky feeling we will put in a much better performance this time round.

Last week we sold 750 tickets at the Giants office and the rest that turned up paid on the day or from Wire pre match. We've sold over 1000 tickets so far from the Giants office for Friday but with family tickets only available from Saints then i'm expecting a better support at Knowsley road. Our ticket office is open until Friday 4pm to get your tickets.

BROWN: “TRAVELLING ARMY CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE"
Nathan Brown has urged the travelling army of Giants supporters to get behind his side as they bid to reach the Engage Super League Grand Final for the first time.
The Giants fans were out in force and in fine voice for the 34-22 victory at Warrington last Saturday, whilst even more are expected to make the journey over to the GPW Recruitment Stadium for St Helens last ever game at their Knowsley Road ground (kick off 8.00pm).
Brown knows only too well the importance the claret and gold army will play in lifting his side:
“The battle is won and lost out there on the pitch but there is no doubt our supporters play a big role in lifting the side at various stages in the game and they were magnificent on the terraces at Warrington in doing that.
"The support we received doesn’t go unnoticed and is really appreciated by everyone in the camp. It’s great to hear that tickets have been flying out this week and even more claret and gold supporters will be there cheering us on.”
The experienced Head Coach also admitted that he feels the pressure is all on the Giants opponents this week as they seek to reach their fifth consecutive Grand Final.
“There are only a few occasions in the Super League era where St Helens hasn’t actually made a final and so the pressure is on them not us, because nobody expects us to win. A lot of things are weighing on their mind but for us we can go there as under dogs and have a good shot at it. We have our own expectations but it’s only with us, it’s not with anyone else.
“We managed to beat them in last year’s Challenge Cup Semi-Final, but that was a long time ago and both teams are different from that day. We’ve added some players to our squad and they’ve changed some players in their squad.
"It does go to show that the Giants can compete and win those types of games which is important, because you wouldn’t like to be going there having never beaten St Helens in a big game, so the fact that we have shows that we can do it."
Tickets are on sale from the Galpharm Stadium Ticket Office until 4pm tomorrow and supporters are advised that prices increase on the turnstiles at the GPW Recruitment Stadium.

Ta chick. Sorry you can't come to the game tonight due to your Mum saying no cos you haven't tidied your bedroom. Let's just hope the Giants win for you so that next week when you're at ours we can go to the Grand Final. Some lucky child will get in for nothing now with your ticket.

Every weekly round of Super League, you are given the chance to vote for the best 3 players of each game during the season. After ever SL game there will be a thread on the forum where you can vote. 3 points to your best player of the game, 2 points for 2nd place and 1 point for 3rd. The points are added up each week until the end of the season when we find out the www.giants.co.nr player of the season.
