| Very tense game. Anti-rugby loses in the end and I hope for Wigan fan's sake that the monkey doesn't continue with those tactics.

| Very poor game from two poor sides. Poor ref, poor commentary, poor crowd, especially saints fans. NRL absolutely slays SL. Leeds and saints gf, will be like watching Hibs and Hearts. It's a shame the seasons ended with this farce of a final.

Very poor effort.
It was an intense game from start to finish,credit to both sides for giving their all.
Saints effort in the second half was fantastic and learn to give credit where it's due,you sound really bitter and twisted,what a shame. ![Rolling Eyes icon_rolleyes.gif](images/smilies//icon_rolleyes.gif)

They chant that when the team decide to go for the kick instead of the tap when the supporters feel the penalty should be run.

| Yay! well done saints!
Look forward to seeing you at old trafford (again). You should start getting a season ticket for old trafford.
Once again leeds and saints show their playoff pedigree.

| Well another dull match approaches. No doubt many dubious refereeing decisions ahead.

That's no excuse! Even in jest, that dirge should never be heard at a game of proper rugby.
Well done, by the way, see you Saturday.

It was a terrible decision to take the two. Saints were comfortably on top at the time and you'd have backed them to get over with six tackles on the Wigan line. So instead of taking a good chance to go 12-6 up they took the two and as a direct result ended up 12-8 down.

We all said the same. They were rocking when we had the ball at that moment and looked like we could get another. Stopped our momentum.

That's just speculation. Wigan's strength for the past two seasons has been rock solid defence. Last year it was the most miserly in SL. This, second behind Warrington's. In the four games leading up to Saints' first victory the team had been repelled time and time again in such positions (even with multiple sets of six). I see no solid evidence to suggest a good chance of a try. Indeed, if history is anything to go by the most likely outcome was Wigan defending their line. An easy two points - in a game that looked destined to be tight - should hardly be considered a bad option. The fact that Wigan scored soon after is no evidence of causation. And the goal prevented Wigan from going six in front and a drop-goal away from taking the game two scores out of reach.
