well done rhino's....its getting that way now ill be dissapointed if we ever win at old trafford. ....well played.

I was initially worried from the start of the second half, but the lads dug deep and pulled it off

Congrats leeds from a Saints fan.

I think that win tonight cemented the side of Burrows, MCguire, Sinfield and Peacock as one of the all time great British RL sides over an era.

To win four out of the last five grand finals is a tremendous achievement. Lets not forget that you only failed to reach the final last year due to an horrendous injury list including to Mcguire and Peacock that saw Wigan get to the final by default.

Many will deride Saints team as chockers, but the truth is we have an excellent side, its just that its not been good enough to defeat you in major occassions for the last six or so years.

Hopefully however the experience that the likes of Gaskell and Lomax will get will bear them in good stead in years ahead, as i remember a young Sinfield Mcguire and Burrows tasting defeat before they managed to get the big wins under their belt.

Finally can i apologise to the fans in block n1408, who i presume were from Leeds, who got verbally abused just before kickoff (purely because they had got their seat location wrong) by some so called Saints fan who was quite frankly a grade A muppet.

St Helens have announced that James Graham will get a similar statue to Kieron Cunningham in the town centre after his farewell game being defeated by Leeds. It was touch-and-go for a while, but St Helens have managed to scrape together enough bronze from their losers' medals over the last five years to make a full-size replica of James.





Only joking...good game Saints. Sorry to see Wellens and Shenton injured. That turned the match. Tough luck chaps. Look forward to the next re-match.

Congratulations n becoming 2011 champs.

No complaints from me on your win, thought you was just about the best team on the day and your goal line defence was unreal in the 2nd half.

The shenton injury changed the game but that's not a excuse as Leeds exploited us down that side.

Two pieces of brilliance by burrow won you the game.

I'm gutted we lost but on the brightened it's not Wigan!

I think Gaskell, Lomax and Makenson could all be top players. Gaskell isn't there yet (in the way McGuire was at his age) & took the wrong option too much thinking he could run over someone like JJB like he did Sam Tomkins. Think our youngsters Hardaker and Clarkson had pretty much flawless games, so maybe we have the next generation coming through too.

Shenton's injury definitely a big moment for us, with 3 tries down his side swiftly following.

I would agree with you when shenton went off momentum seemed to swing back to us

Congratulations. Pretty amazing end to the season. Well done.



Where are the Macca Knockers?

Well done Leeds. Great performance. Excellent defence and little Rob had a blinder. Two of the best tries I've seen in a Grand Final.

It sure did but that's rugby.

Again not seen the tv yet but what happened to wellens?

Him and Kylie both went for the loose ball and Wellens came of worse, shame because Wellens was playing well.

It was an absolute fine display from the Rhinos. However a splendid and fabulous man of the match display by Rob Burrow. Well-deserved Leeds!

Hmmm. Not sure about Leeds fans congratulating themselves on this thread?

Anyway, well done and thouroughly deserved in the end!

Bit of a tussle for much of the game but our loss of wellens and shenton gave leeds momentum and the team superbly exploited the situation.

Once again, Saints where Leeds B!tch

I feared the worst when Leeds won Warrington.
They more than anyone raise there game for the GF

Well done.

Well done Leeds.
Superb effort won it for you.

Well done Leeds - the best team won on the night. We might have potentially great players in Wheeler, Lomax and Gaskell, but you had the real deal tonight in Burrow: we ultimately just couldn't live with him frankly.

I'd like to say see you again next year at O/T for Round 5, but frankly I think I'd rather get relegated than have to face that ever again

Great game and well played Leeds, well done BM great to see a British coach get the top honours.

Well done Leeds. At least this time it felt like more of a contest both defences on top in the first half and I thought we had you in the second. We gave away far too many penalties. But I'm not going to be too harsh on the Saints lads as we did well to get there no one gave us a chance of beating wigan twice.

Would have prefered to win but could not argue with the loss. Well done.

after a very sluggish start to the season you hit top form at the right time.. well done

Well played Leeds a great end to the season...

well done, good season from you guys.

Well done guys. Great team performance over the season, coupled with the return of Peacock and McGuire both straight back into form was a massive boost.

Yeah, well done, again, your defence in that first half was superb.

We'll be back again, and that law of averages suggests the next one is finally ours

Congratulations on a cracking win - your lads exploited the disarray that the loss of Shenton and Wellens created with surgical precision, and Burrow was just superb; great to see a final played in the right spirit, with a distinct lack of spoiling, slowing, Wrestlemania tactics.

Especially pleasing to see a young English coach do the business over his Aussie counterparts - he may have just done the next generation of English head coaches a massive favour.
