Source: www.giantsrl.comFriday nights engage Super League Round 14 fixture between the Giants and the Bulls brings together two local Huddersfield products Paul Reilly of Huddersfield and Marcus St Hilaire of Bradford. Both players came through the ranks with amateur side Moldgreen ARL to play for the Giants.
The two friends signed for Huddersfield two years apart from each other, St Hilaire in 1994 and Reilly in 1996. While Reilly went onto become the Giants longest serving player, St Hilaire signed for Leeds Rhinos two years later.
The two did play together again when mid-way through the 2002 season St Hilaire was released from the final year of his Rhinos contract and rejoined Huddersfield. In two spells with Huddersfield St Hilaire made 101 appearances, scoring 46 tries for a total of 184 points. Reilly who has just finished his testimonial year with the Giants and has found a new lease of life playing on the wing in 2007 and has played a major part in the Giants unbeaten eight game run.
Both players have been winding each other up before the game and intend to continue that on the pitch on Friday night. However while Reilly will enjoy a friendly bout of rivalry he knows that he and his team mates have a serious job to do:
"It'd be nice to get that first win against the Bulls tonight. I think that if we all stick to our jobs then we are in with a real chance. We're in good form at the moment but so are Bradford, but it would be very nice to beat them especially in front of the Giants fans here at the Galpharm and with the cameras being here."Supporters are encouraged to pre-purchase their tickets and take advantage of the pre-matchday discounts and also be in with a chance of winning lunch with the Giants first team squad.
Tickets are available from the Galpharm Stadium Ticket Office with Children under 12 going free and pre-matchday discounts now available meaning a family of four can go to the game for 33 pounds. The Ticket Hotline is 0870 44 44 552.

Source: www.bradfordbulls.co.ukengage Super League and Carnegie World Club Champions, Bradford Bulls, have today announced that Marcus St Hilaire has signed a new improved one year contract with the club.
St Hilaire, who joined the club in January after a short spell at Halifax, has made thirteen appearances for the Bull this season. He came on reduced terms and has worked very hard since arriving whilst the club were on their pre season training camp in Lanzarotte
St Hilaire is delighted to have earned another contract with the club:
"Things have worked out really well for me. It was always a risk and I'm glad it's worked out for the best. Steve McNamara has said I proved I wanted to be at Bradford by coming in those circumstances and the club has rewarded me with the new deal and some extra money on top. I was confident but it was just a case of getting a chance and because of injuries to the rest of the boys I ended up getting one. Keeping that spot then helped getting the deal and I'm really happy. Now I am looking forward to getting a good off-season as I didn't really have one this year!"Bulls Coach Steve McNamara, who was instrumental in getting St Hilaire to the club, is delighted that the faith he showed in Marcus has been justified.
"He's been a fantastic example for everyone. The way the game is going, you have to take gambles and I'd say Marcus was a calculated one. A lot of people thought he wasn't a Bradford type signing but he's shown the right characteristics, worked hard on his game, has now got his reward and I couldn't be happier for him."News sent by:
