I would like to congratulate the players of both sides. Towards the end of the game, it was getting a bit tense and thought that the rivalry may have spilled over after the hooter but fair play to them all.

I just hope that the rift may thaw and get together to concentrate on the internationals coming up.

Cunningham went straight to Sinfield after the game and actually gave him a large embrace and did similar with a number of Leeds players.

As has been said, his words after the game at Headingley were excellent and his actions after last nights game were the same.

Long's also came across well in his interview and he must have been gutted with it being the end of his Saints career.

The rivalry is just a few personal grudges. Lee Smith and his girlfriend Lee Gilmour won't be an issue anymore and Graham and Jjb seem to have made up as well as they man snuggled together at the end of the game.

I think there is still a disliking between Graham and Bailey but Ryan spends so little time on the field that bar the odd tackle they will barely meet in games anyway.

I think Lee Smith and Lee Gilmour and their mouths played a large part in starting the hand bags at times.

As for op Keiron Cunningham is the most honest pro you will meet, very similar to Peacock and Sinfield for Leeds whose conduct you can't help but admire.

KC goes round every player every week after the games and shakes there hands no matter what score it was or what went on in the game.

He's a great honest hard working bloke.

Believe it or not but longy might be a idiot off the pitch with the things he gets up to but you'd never see him storm off without the shake of hands after the hooter.

Well done to rhinos on your 3rd straight grand final win.
