Devils Vs Giants - 6th & 7th December- Chat/Updates
- Thread starter Skippy
- Start date
No boos, but there were jeers and I few things shouted by a fair few and I was one of them. I wouldnt hesitate to do it the next time it happened to him. As I've said already, it couldn't have happened to a better bloke. You reap what you sow Lloyd. You treat your opposition with zero respect so don't expect any from their fans.
I was fairly worried for the player, until I seen a #72 on the back. He finished Vothers career with a late hit, injured Marsh's shoulder a year or two ago with another late hit and Hotham a few weeks ago with a hit from behind. And that's just a quick count of our team alone. I couldn't care less if it happened to him every time he visited the tent, he's a classless rat.

Only boo's were when Keefe went up for mom. There were muted claps when the putz was carried off. (not from me).
The class the giants showed can be summed up with their performance when plexi broke.
THEY AINT GOT NONE
What a fantastic (4 point) weekend of hockey at the BBT.
All I have to say to Steve King and the whole Devils organisation is-
THANK YOU

Can we not get down to personal insults please (general team insults are fine
)
The fact of the matter is it's been a long time since we've had any bragging rights at all against the Giants. They have come into our rink and consistently beaten the crap out of us. Lloyd and Keefe have had a free reign to do as they wish and nothing was ever done. The Giants fans have to accept after so many teabaggings over the years we have the right to be happy that we pulled of 2 good wins over them. Lots of hockey left this season between the 2 teams including a semifinal. Exciting stuff (for once)

Face facts anything you have accused us of ......and not correctly in all cases......has been dished out in spades by Giants fans
It's probably not all fans but there are some distasteful fans there ......fairly sure it's the only place I have been spat at
no booing heard from here either..... the chanting while he was down was a bit...... eesh however given where the hit was and the fact half the rink probably couldn't see him still down so it's one of them things I guess.
win some, lose some, learn from mistakes.
I had avoided going to Cardiff for a few years following a very unsavoury experience the last time I was there - but before a puck was dropped I encountered nothing but friendliness and even after the game(s) the banter was great - I can accept you hate Sandrock if you can accept I hate Myers
Not sure if any of Block 2 noticed Bowns smirk towards away block following THAT save while a fair few of us were all politely clapping. Genius moment - I love a bit of cockiness and that save deserved a lot of it.
when we remove the minority from both sides who overstep the lines then I'd say we have a great little rivalry buzzing. Really hoping for another double header next season. Beautiful city and results aside, a cracking weekend!!

After that weekend all that should be said from a giants point of view is what the hell has Thornton done to that team. Devils were the far better team all weekend but the giants showed no fight no will to win outside of maybe 4 or 5 players gutless performance from the rest. Thornton has somehow turned a very good team into a middle of the table team unable to compete with the Devils,Panthers,Steelers or the Clan. Devils look to have right mix of physicality and skill in your team with very good goaltending from Bowns I can see you going on to challenge for silverware this season and envy you getting to watch players who want to compete for you night in night.

this is the first post I have made on your forum. I have been a Giants fans from the very first season and have enjoyed many games against the Devils (both good and bad) and I for one have never had any problems with fans, having said that, all teams have a minority that just like to cause and fuel arguements, and reacting is just lowering ourselves to their level.
I watched both games this weekend via the webcast, and have to say the Devils fully deserved the 4pts, no arguement from me or I should say from the vast majority of Giants fans. As for the alleged booing following the injury to Lloyd I have to say it wasnt evident over the webcast.
So far this season we have played each other 8 times, with both sides winning their home fixtures, but I would admit that because the Devils have won the last three games that you have the momentum, but we all know how fickle this game we love is dont we we have to play at least 4 more games so still plenty to play for.
I would hope that all these games be genuine battles, games of hard fough, hard nosed hockey, but fairly played hockey. That way neither set of supporters will be able to complain about stupid things influencing the outcome (but we all know a referee will do that somewhere down the line )
