| When your club wins a GF:
Is there ever a worst Grand Final of all time thought going through your head when you walk away victorious, irrespective of if your a player or a fan?
The only people that didn't like this years GF winners being the Rhinos yet again are clearly all .............Losers

Still remember the Burrow McGuire hall combo for the third try.
The Wigan away was a real gritty performance always remember the three tackles after the Burrow no try.'"
I thought Peacock was going to pull Carmont's head off. Was it JP, Buchanan and Kylie who bent Mossop in half from the tap?

It's Danny's pass to Ryan that gets me. One handed, over his shoulder, yet he managed to make the ball spin so it stayed true as it just dropped in to Hall's waiting hands. Amazing skills.

| Couldn't care less what the armchair viewers thought of it. It isn't about them. It's the 73000 who made the trip over who count and half of them are going home disappointed. Fortunately it wasn't us. You couldn't prise the grin off my mush with a crowbar on the tram after the game. Forgive me for not sparing a thought for the Monday morning quarterbacks sat with their Wotsits and 6 pack!

Arcing his run to stay up as long as possible.
There were so many good moments in the match.
Personally it's probably my favourite game.

Yeah then then they smashed another and then a penalty was milked by o loughlin by the Wigan arm grab tactic.

Amazing game, and the atmosphere was bouncing that night. Bedsy showed Micky Monners why he was the best 9 of the modern era with a masterclass and I believe he didn't miss a single tackle! Webby standing Bridge up after receiving a deep ball from Burrow was another special moment as he shipped back inside for Bobs to go under the sticks. Great showing from Leeds

Great 9 Buderus was, but Cam Smith is head and shoulders the best 9 of the modern era

| The final may have been a bit boring for nuetrals because Leeds were so dominant in the second half, but I dont buy anyone who is saying that Leeds were not even that good, I think it was our best performance in over 2 years and McGuire put in one of the greatest GF performances of all time

Possibly our most under valued player for a long time. Not by all, but many of our fan base have no idea how important he has been to the team over the years

Not sure I would agree, smith is just the best since the last best which was Buderous

| It was persisting down. Leeds did what they needed to do. GF or league game. Winning is the main thing. I wasn't bored by it as a neutral. I very much enjoyed Leeds knocking that 'already champions' smirk of the faces of Castleford. A side with literally no history chanting 'That's why we're champions' after a league game getting way too big for their boots needed that peg taking down. Usually i wouldn't want Leeds to win but i was 100% a Leeds fan last Saturday. The only thing Cas could take out of that match was by looking at Danny McGuire and watching how a final needs to be played. He was outstanding.

| The only thing that mattered was the result, the rest is irrelevant, just as the Wigan v Hull Challenge Cup game was in 2013, that was played in worse conditions, but hey-ho who cares.
It's in the record books, that's all that matters.
While I'm on, I've never been McGuires biggest fan but that was as good a halfback performance as I've seen in a long time. I was talking to my son in law who's a Saints fan, and a friend who supports Wigan and they both said the same.
