Congratulations to Saints. Now for the real thing! I hope we see you at OT.

7 in 19. Never finished below 5th (and that's only been twice) - we've been spoilt beyond compare in the modern era.

Going off the garbage the coaching staff had at their disposal (according to you that is) and injuries to key players throughout the season I think it is an excellent testimonial to both the coaching staff and fringe players who have come into the side and given their best to win the league leaders shield.

First off, congratulations.

Second off, what's it like to have won the LLS in such an embarrassing manner?

Why, we won more games than anybody else, we also did the double on our contender for that particular piece of silverware. It's awarded over the 27 game season and not over the last 2 weeks.

Well I for one dont think it's meaningless,you finished top of the pile.
Congratulations.

Aye, proper embarrassing to finish top of the league

Keep looking , you'll find your dummy eventually

She's a bit grumpy...probably cut herself whilst shaving her back.

I can,t remember what we had pre League Leaders Shield from 2003, was it a proper trophy with handles on.

Congratulations on finishing top of the league, especially with the loss of key players .

Incidentally, as someone who will probably never see my team lift a trophy, is it just a new shield that’s produced every year?

It would be much better if like in the NRL with the Minor Premiers, it had a list of previous winners & therefore look to have a bit more kudos.

While I would have loved us to have played our skins off and won it last Thursday - that would have really felt like [iwinning[/i it - I'm very grateful to the Dragons for playing well and making sure we didn't lose it. Although we have been unbelievably frustrating this season - because we have a good team but one with too often a bad attitude - we have been at the top for most of it and therefore by default deserve this piece of silverware.

While I'm a bit bemused by the fact that we are official winners as we have had two losses on the bounce, I'm sure by Friday night I will have gotten my head around it and hopefully the club will celebrate it in some way although it's a bit awkward I suppose with our opposition for the night being Castleford.

Still, I'm really glad we now have a piece of silverware in the cupboard. Let's hope that this gives our young and inexperienced team the impetus it needs to kick on.

It has the year engraved on it I think so you'll get a new one every year. It doesn't prove much under the current system unless you win the GF but it's better than nowt. Congratulations anyhoo!

Congratulations on finishing top of the pile, i suppose on the basis of 27 games you deserve it , but the whole thing is a mockery when you think that Wire and Leeds who are 5th/6th respectively have a more realistic chance of being crowned champions than you do, i don't mean that in a disrespectful way, i just think that given your injuries etc that they have stronger teams and really have a real chance.

Congratulations from a Cas fan. Over the 27 games you've deserved it especially with a ll the injuries.
