- SAINTS' top four hopes suffered a massive blow with a 24-16 loss at Huddersfield.
- Once again they were the architects of their own downfall with some shocking early ball control.
- Too many dropped balls in the first half handed the Giant the initiative and they responded with tries from Leroy Cudjoe and Martyn Ridyard.
- It could have been worse, with Saints' inability to complete a set putting themselves under too much pressure.
- Somewhat against the run of play a super break from Morgan Knowles fashioned a try for the supporting Luke Thompson just before the break.
- And Saints were first on the scoresheet after the interval when nice hands from Zeb Taia and Jonny Lomax fashioned the chance for Mark Percival to dash over.
- But an Adam O'Brien try from close range restored Giants' eight-point cushion.
- Saints, now that they were holding the ball, played some better football.
- And they were rewarded for their pressure when Kyle Amor forced his way over.
- Saints chased the game and the next score was going to be the killer - alas it went to old boy Lee Gaskell.
- Saints came up short - and that is another damaging away loss that exposed some frailties in the side.
- No team can afford to be coughing up so much ball and expect to win.
- Although they sorted that in the second half, the damage had been done.
