| as a Wire fan looking in thought Benthams on-side call for Lee Smiths last try was VERY dubious : as much as I don`t like Saints (sorry !!) in any other match with any other video ref I think the try would have been ruled out
but a great effort by Saints and well done !!

at 11..10 it was anyones game..but that little bald garden gnome made sure leeds of the win.
having said that we only scored one try..we had enough amount of ball to score when leeds kept dropping it..
simple as..potter in.... 1st blank season for a few years.

| Dont blame the decision. We made our OWN mistakes. Silly offload by Maurie and Shocking defence from Hargreaves cost us the game.
Leeds where the Best team for 45 minutes. They deserved the win. We had them in our pocket at 8 - 0 but silly mistakes cost us.

It was and it hurts, i cried when the decision was given. It hurts because it is 3 defeats on the bounce but having looked back i knew the game was gone at 8-8. We had Leeds rattled then blew it.

| As a Bradford fan-I feel that Saints were robbed tonight,yeah Meli made a few mistakes but the vid ref made one VERY BIG mistake-Smith was offside.
Glad Eastmond got first try,14-1 at my local bookies XD Shame he couldnt of got more trys tonight.

they was the best team on the night

leeds have been the best team all season.. eastmond was the only player who look dangerous for saints tonite.. really thought it was goner be saints time this time and put 20 on +6 which i thought was a guarantee but it proved it wasnt...
potter out ive not seen that many game of saints this season but from what i have seen saints ant look the class rugby outfit they where few years ago.....

I do find it interesting reading the prejudices and preferred scape goats people have on this website.
For instance, in this case you have failed to make mention of the two catastrophic errors from Meli that lead to 2 Leeds tries (ok, so the second one was also followed by the offside-but-not-offside decision, but it was what gave them possession).

| Meli is more to blame for you losing that game more than any referee....
the last try was dubious.... but theres plenty of arguements either way to it being given or dissallowed.
either way was a great spectacle

The thing is with Meli. He would not have had to deal with the kick had Eastmond not stupidly have a second attempt in Leeds own 20 when we had them rattled.
It also hurts that the guy does actually try his best for Saints. He constantly made yards all night with ball in hand, just like all season. Obviously it as cost us a try tonight (thats 3 teies gifted to leeds in 3 Grand Finals) but atleast he is good going forward. Ade Gardner is neither!
Nobody are scapegoats. Our team lost this game

Is that why Gardener came nearer to scoring than Meli?

There's a thread on Meli's mistakes if you look harder
