| Yes. It started with clips of us struggling, with Phil Clarke shown saying we weren't very good. An Ian Millward quote was shown ('Leeds aren't good enough to win the title' or something). This was interspresed with clips of people bigging up Warrington and saying how it would take a miracle to stop them, along with clips of the Wire celebrating their hub-cap win. Then they showed clips of us performing a miracle as we beat them last week. In the middle they showed a montage of the Green Bay Packers winning the Superbowl, following a season depleted by injuries where they had been written off. To end the film was Kipling's 'If'. It was stirrring stuff.

| I read they are going to put it on the website, but have to edit bits out first due to copywrite stuff. So you'll probably get the lite version on the dvd if they do put it on.

| Harrigan said to me on Saturday before the game that our season would have made an excellent episode of "America's Game" which is where the Green Bay footage came from. It was a tremendous video, really good stuff!

| Whether you've got an interest in the NFL or not, I'd urge you to check out the "America's Game" series.
It looks behind the scenes at the various Superbowl winners (and some of the "nearly" teams in the "Missing Rings" episodes) with archive footage and interviews with the key characters.
Something similar on the 2011 Leeds Rhinos would make extremely interesting viewing.

| I can't help but think that this season will take up a big chunk of a few players autobiography in years to come.

Definitely. I don't have a clue about NFL but I've watched a load of them. The New Orleans one was actually quite emotional!
It's extremely well made and a SL version would be great. Doubt it will ever happen though. Don't football have their own take on it? It's pretty crap IIRC.

| The thing about the NFL is they have their own company called NFL films that follow the teams about and film a load of what happens behind the scenes, this would never happen in the SL(obviously) so a lot of the key moments would have never been filmed.
Would be great if it was possible though!

Don't think they need much special stuff. Just footage from games and players talking about those moments, giving their view on it.
I think it would be good, and is do-able. But probably something that wouldn't interest Sky financially.

| Wonder if the club would commission such a venture if there was enough interest, I know a lot of people who said how good it would be if there was similar from our amazing season.

| I can't stand American football, I've tried to get it but it simply doesn't do it for me. However I have seen a few of the 'America's game' series and it really is something. The magnitude and the importance of the occasion really comes accross - Something the American's do really well when it comes to sporting documentaries. Everytime I see it I wish I liked the game.

| Miami dolphins fan, god there having a crap season the padding is for the lack of rules regarding hits, eg head high I think is the main reason. also weight difference 350 pound defensive monster like suh falling on I dont know 195pound reggie bush, gotta try and stop him being a pancacke.
Anyway an America's game-esque rhinos documentary would be great and probably sell well in the club shop
It could be Yorkshire's Game
