| Quote: Backwoodsman "As a Leeds fan I will take that as a complement , it was just one game in a long season but age seems to be catching up with some of the wires senior players. Briars was off the pace and Morley is a shadow of the player he was.'"
After the 2010 and 2012 Challenge Cup finals the post mortem has been 'age seems to be catching up with Leeds' so I wouldn't write us off yet.

I shall have to disagree with you on those games, we did not play very well and on both occasions the winners played better than us.
Now we are coming to the business end of the season all will be revealed. I still think Wigan are the form team, can't quite see the giants at old trafford . Although the form book says they should make it.
All in all I think some of the play off sudden death games look intriguing . Tony Smith is more than capable of getting the wire up for one game, more than that looks like a huge task.

ironic that wigan and fc play the following Friday against each other too after the cup final, whoever wins the cup will probably lose the league match! we'll(fc) take the cup!!

| Have a look on their board now and see that they didn’t really want it anyway, and the hubcap is the sign of the real champions and Hull and Wire had a great love-in after the game in the true spirit of the game. Unlike us men, we are all thugs and big heads who support nowt but a one man average team who bought and cheated their way through the whole history of RL…. So no change there then!

They're only being nice to Hull because they want them to beat us. More faces than Big Ben that lot!

If i remember correctly we had the same scenario in 1998.
London in the semi then played Sheffield the week after the final, and battered them.
However i have a good feeling about this one and feel we can go on to win both games this time.

| Still fancy Leeds for the GF. They've won 5 of past 6 playoff series. Forget the league, they are the best playoff series team and should be the fave's. As things stand in should be playoff semi's of Wigan v Wire and Hudds v Leeds.

16304_1526976105.jpg [size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

Erm...

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| Warringtons arrogance cost then the game. They had two simple kickable penalties just before half time and chose to run them. I don't think Leeds or Wigan would have made that decision.
Oh, and the crowd yesterday was 10,621, so which team took most speccies to the semifinals?
