I don't trust the missed tackles stats. The Cas-Leeds game and resulting stats from it (when Leeds won at the death) was enough to show they were meaningless, for that game anyways.
I see Brett and Jammer are not in the 19 for friday. Can understand Jammer with the 8 stitches he received during the game but what's wrong with Brett again?

Probably the dirty tackling technique used on him near the end of the game.
I'm pretty confident about Friday. HKR gave everything on Saturday and had to push their bodies for more than 80mins with nothing to show for it at the end, they'll be physically and mentally drained. Teams who give everything and more in a game rarely perform the following week. Take Cas for instance, they'll get walloped this weekend. The Giants on the other hand came through our game doing just enough to win and without playing their best rugby. I predict a similar scoreline to when we met a few months ago.
