Matty English feels Huddersfield Giants are primed to finally become a new name on the Betfred Super League trophy - especially with wind-up merchant Jake Connor back on their side.
Only four clubs - Leeds, St Helens, Wigan and Bradford - have ever won the competition in its 27 year history. Super League is crying out for new champions and Huddersfield, Challenge Cup finalists last year, are earmarked by many as the next big hope. England Knights prop English, 25, said: “I've been here a while now and you all try to buy in and believe your own hype.
“Sometimes we’ve sat in the changing rooms thinking it’s going to be our year but finally I think it actually could. It was a disappointing end to last season. I feel we let ourselves down after what we’d built. But with the squad we’ve this year, some of the big names we’ve brought in, it does feel possible we’re going to do it.”
