Giants a 'potential Super League force' - Robinson
Luke Robinson oversaw two wins during his stint as interim boss of Huddersfield

Huddersfield Giants have the potential to be a force to be reckoned with in Super League, according to head coach Luke Robinson.
The 40-year-old was placed in temporary charge on 11 July after former boss Ian Watson was sacked, and given the permanent job on a three-year contract on Wednesday.
Robinson, who was Watson's assistant, won two of eight games during his spell as interim head coach.
"We've got to make sure we've got a strong and united coaching staff and the responsibilities are all set in stone and everyone knows their role within the organisation," he told 大象传媒 Radio Leeds.
"We're surrounded by good people at Huddersfield and if we all pull in the right direction we will become a force to be reckoned with."
Former England international Robinson made 228 appearances for Huddersfield before retiring in 2015, and was previously in charge on a temporary basis in 2020 after Simon Woolford's exit.
However, he has been unable to inspire a late-season revival with his side 11 points off the Super League play-off places in ninth, heading into the final three games.
"I've been a professional now since 2002 when I started with the first team. I've had a lot of good coaches and a lot of poor ones and I've tried to take a little bit from each and every one of them," he added.
"You need to be original - you can't be anything else. You need to be for what you stand for."
