| I loved it with about a minute to go, when they were checking if Ali had scored. The players were already celebrating at that point.
And so pleased it was Rob's turn to make Wellens look silly. He did it with aplomb.

| Back from Old Trafford, just caught some of the re-run on SS1, and absolutely on a high tonight! Champions again after a superb performance. Quite how we got back into it after a nightmare first 20 mins of the second-half I'm not really sure, but what a spirited fightback it was. Credit to Saints who were really giving us it in that period, and I'm sure they will be gutted, It's hard not to feel sorry for them tonight. But what a great way for Brian and Jimmy to answer all the doubters this season......by delivering us a Championship!
Well done to each and everyone of em tonight!

| Oh, and a big well done to Leon Pryce. By far his most effective Grand Final performance against us.

| I'd also like to add my thanks to the miserable little chappie who banned me on the Cherry and Whine Board for pointing out that 6 Gf's on the bounce by Saints was a well respected achievment that cast a long shadow over their own less successful efforts.
Seems they're a tad touchy in Pieland now they're back in the box!
What an awesome performance tonight, and the cherry on the cake for me, was Big Ali's farewell 200th game culminated in a GF winning medal.

It is becoming quite a habit for poor old Wello isn't it ?

You might have noticed we lost two players to injury at that point and Scott Moore had been recruited to your team by Agent McDermott!
Well done on your win.

| WOW!!! Let me just say, since I have moved to Leeds, I have seen 4 live games and they have won all 4!! That truly was the most amazing gf/final I have ever seen! Now I don't know which club has the biggest fan base/support, but it seemed that there were a hell of a lot more Leeds fans than there were St Helens fans. From what I've seen of Leeds (on pay tv in Aus) this is a great side, but I was told they were on the down cause lot of players were coming to the end of their careers. They dug in and fought and fought and just kept on going. A truly amazing performance! Now, I don't know who the England halfback is, but if Rob Burrow doesn't get the gig, then he's not doing enough! What a performance by the little bloke! Sinfield should be the loose forward/stand off and I would consider using McGuire off the bench as an impact player.
Get in Rhinos!!!
