Do you think the chap in black and white is heading to the Keepmoat to push over the posts like the Cods did last time they felt aggrieved about a Challenge Cup game

Very lucky today Leeds, best team lost, and thats from a Wakey fan.

An average game that could of gone either way. It was a no thrills arm wrestle and was all about who had the better stamina going into the last quarter of the match.

As for this 'cheating' nonsense.....well I find that hard to believe as the officials seemed to be on top of things and that has to be the most active touch judge Ive seen for a long time. What exactly are we being accused of? forward passing? head high challenges? knock ons? (all called by the ref) or is Leeds winning known as cheating these days? - Ill have a scout through the Oxford English dictionary to see if they have changed it in there......

I love this one

McGoldrick slap him across the face after being stepped (not malicious but careless)

And is "Bull Mania" really trying to suggest that having stepped the last man Danny McGuire chose to take a dive to win a penalty out near the touchline rather than running in to score a golden point try

you are of course welcome to visit the City of Leeds any time we dont wish you any harm.our fathers and uncles didnt dodge ww11 on the pretext that they were needed to dig up coal

Agree 100%. Cas did very well to still be in contention in the first half. Combination of desperate defence and Leeds lack of clinical finishing. Aside from that great try from Chase, I didn't feel cas threatened the line, except maybe for Orr running in quicksand in the last few moments. The penalty on MacGuire is given every day of the week - no malice, he just got done by some good footwork. No praise for sinfield from these cheat accusers? His class and Chase's lack of composure bang in front of the sticks was the difference in the end. Great effort by Cas. Plucky and determined, yes. Better rugby performance? Debatable.

Better get used to it tho. Wigan fans love accusing us of cheating. Can't wait. Flying in from Melbourne for it.

I won't be flying back from Brisbane for it. We need to improve enormously to have a chance in the Final.

Unless I missed the bit where McGuire still had hold of the ball I doubt the try would have been awarded to the 'Scourge of Castleford' although with Bentham in charge you never know*.

* Not my view, I thought he had a top game and now deserves the final over Silverwood, if it's a choice between those two.

Castleford were the better side for all of the opening 10 minutes of the second half and ..... well there is no 'and' really. Well done Leeds for not turning your superiority (which was fairly evident for all to see) into points and keeping everyone on the edge of their seats.

Oh and can someone please explain to coach McDermott how to read the league table before the season ends.

Didn't notice that he lost the ball





Well he did say a couple of weeks ago that he wasn't looking at the table



I liked his neighbours answer though.

Bloody hell. It's only a game.
