The attendance was given as less than 10000 which suprised me for such a big game. Is that a fair reflection or were there more there and if it was how does that reflect on supporters attitudes to the play offs?
Is it because Wigan couldn't go straight into the Final as would be the case in previous play offs or do supporters feel that the new system is simply a money making exercise for the clubs?

At least 12k there, thought that's what the attendance was given as?

But yeh, always going to be lower due to being on TV, not a knockout for either team and not being on the season ticket.

OT slightly but how poor was the home crowd at the hudds game? Looked appauling on TV.

5689 at the 'pharm on Saturday. Estimates seem to be that there were 600-700 Crusaders fans.

There were at least 12000 on last night. The 3rd best away support, in terms of volume and size that anyone's brought this year after Saints and Wire. Good going.

Cheers

Was impressed last night, walking round the stadium with about 35mins to go before kick off, there was the odd one or two wearing Blue & Amber and was expecting a small following. I was wrong (as i was to write Leeds off ) Superb atmosphere and i love how the majority of us (for the second week running) refused to leave until we had clapped all our players off the field.

It's surprising how easy it is to get a decent atmosphere when everyone keeps telling you that your team is a load of rubbish and has no chance.

That's a bit like we felt in the Challenge Cup semi final this year and although we lost it was a great place to be for the bulk of the 80 minutes.

well i am very pleased to say that i was loud and proud last night!! it was by far one of the best away games i have been to for atmosphere. when leeds arent doing as well as they can and the crowd gets behind them i have noticed afew times that the lads lift and start playing better. i know it can sometimes be hard to sing and shout but i think it gives our boys a massive boost and i wish everyone would sing like that at every match!!!

Great atmosphere in our end last night, even at 14-0 down we got behind the lads and it seemed to show on the pitch, can't wait for the game in 2 weeks!

That’s typical Leeds for you. As a city we’re at our best when facing the odds and backs against the walls!

Its been corrected it was 12,177 with 1,300 leeds fans

really good atmosphere last night and glad the fans got behind the players whenever we conceded a try or dropout in the first half, if the few offensive and abusive songs were cut out and replaced with even more positive support it would be even better

What?

"Sam Tomkins, is a , is a " ... that was the only abusive or offensive chant sung last night from the Leeds fans, and I'm sure that Tomkins won't be crying himself to sleep about it, but revelling in it instead. Jesus christ man, grow a pair.

it was amazing, if only more had joined in the TMFMISL chant

More like Wigans full of <insert abusive term here>

Started by non only than your barmy army.

do you not think "s" is offensive, i bet the swear filter does
