What an absolutely outstanding achievement from an absolutely outstanding side. The likes of Burrow, McGuire, Peacock, Bailey are surely now immortal in the sport? And THE man himself Kevin Sinfield. He's copped more stick that just about any top player ever, always called overrated, always mocked when chosen for England/GB. Despite the amount of pain he's inflicted on my side, he's just an absolute legend. What more can you say about that man? Probably the best captain ever? Leeds the best side ever? I'm not talking about this 17 specifically, but the legacy of the last 6 or 7 years.

What a final too, so many opportunities for them to wilt. Credit must go to Warrington as well, another champion team, who should be very proud of their achievement this season. They'll be back at OT soon enough.

Wow...

Cant agree with that,yes they know how to win grand finals and it is a very good achievement, but great team? No,good team spirit who have it in them to win grand finals, some would say a team that finishes 5th 2 years in a row and finish as champions makes a mockery of our game but thems the rules.
Congratulations to leeds,commiserations to warrington.
Roll on 2013

before this game,

if wire won its deserved, if Leeds win its a travesty for the game!

Wakey won 7 in a row, they beat cats at home, beat the best team all year in the semi's, then beat the team that denied them the cup. say what u want about Leeds but they ARE the best team come GF time, the senior players that they have, Peacock, Burrow, Sinfield, Mcguire... deserve their name in history,

The greatest team in history? probably not, but the greatest team in SL to date = yes!

Remember we are champions and WCC and got to the cup final. It doesn't make a mockery of SL it's just player management.

Those who think it makes a mockery of the game simply don get it, or its sour grapes.

I dont mean i think that,its what a lot of others think.
Leeds are average from february to august and very good in september, they are without doubt the best grand final team but not a great team

If it happened once, you can say it's making a mockery of Super League. But when they do it 5 times in 6 years you have to acknowledge it as an achievement. The flat cappers who don't like the Grand Final being used to sort the champions from the others need to get up to speed.

In America they call it "Clutch" the abilty to be the BEST when it matters!! they celebrate it more than any other attribute in the States

The greatest team, dynasty in RL history

We play 4 weeks or brutal rugby league at the highest level winning every game and leaving everything on the pitch 4 weeks running, for goodness sake the players could hardly celebrate after the hooter they had played so hard

yet they still have naysayers..... unbelievable

An outstanding team, without a doubt. They turn it on when they need to. the best team in the Superleague era.

Nobody should ever doubt their quality.

But they only won half their games all season !

Its clutch ....your nothing without it

If the other teams don't want the championship ring, the Rhinos will happily a sixth

People have short memories Leeds have had league leaders shields plus second and 3rd places finishes during our unparalleled success.

It's simply sour grapes. Look at the amount of games played by Leeds due to their success. Since 04. It's about Player management and peaking at the right time.

Anything other than acknowledgement for Leeds success, plus the clubs ability to manage its playing roster & win the titles is sour grapes.

When it comes to values, the last place of imitation should be America.

Why? Is our culture so much better?

No cop killers or child abductors here right.....oh wait

stupid xenophobic comment

Is the sad lad the biggest groupie going?

He fawns all year over Warrington, even to the expense of his own team, spends his time posting on the Wire board proclaiming that Leeds have no chance against the Wolves. Then as soon as the final whistle is blown, jumps on here and blows smoke rings up the arris of Leeds and Kevin Sinfield.

A social chameleon, who despite his attempts at being "risky", just wants everyone's approval.

All this back slapping is quite nauseating.

The Richie Mathers of RLfans

It would have been a stupid xenophobic comment if I held your preconceived assumption that I thought our culture was better. But I don't.
