Leeds had many outstanding performers last night but Sinny stood out ahead of them all as the player who made the biggest contribution to the result.

Unlike other contenders for MOM put forward on this thread who were only on the field for half the game Sinny played as usual the whole 80 minutes. His leadership, high skill level and high work rate were evident again last night and his crucial 40/20, try saving tackle, drop goal and his tremendous tactical kicking put him ahead of the rest.

So many spectators seem to totally miss the quite no frills contribution he makes in every game. Try making passes, controlling the territory, SL leading kicker for the last 3 years, high tackle count etc etc. Leeds MOM and player of the season.

I am sure Sir Kev doesn't have skiddys G, I am sure he is methodical and thorough in his cleaning regime.

Sinfield had a top game, one of his best for a long time mainly due to the fact that he didnt do things which he isnt capable of.

I also thought both Burrow and McGuire were magnificent especially the latter who is turning into the complete 6.

But in terms of MOM I thought Webb was on a different planet, he looked a threat every time he joined in the line, his kicking game was good when needed and when Leeds were under real pressure he handled everything that was thrown at him.

by a country mile lockers is better

Not watched any replays but I thought that last night at the game aswell.

His kicking game? I remember one clearing kick but must have blanked the rest. My Bad.

I agree that Webb was dangerous. His first tackle was dangerous and his challenge on Gardner will no doubt see last week's [url=http://www.therfl.co.uk/about/disciplinary_item.php?id=1527warning letter[/url from the RFL followed up with something stronger this time.

and how did you come to that remedial conclussion?

The irony of calling someone a remedial then failing to spell conclusion correctly.

He looks more like an oompa loompa than Sinfield and thats about all he has

such attention to detail?

Sinny’s kicking last night was incredible and reminded me of the way that Andrew Johns kicked.

Kicking early in the tackle count when we needed and with some of the most delicately weighted kicks I’ve seen all season.

One question though – why does he save these skills for the final or was it just one of those nights when it all goes right?

Is that the best way you can wiope the egg of your face after the stick you have given Sinfield and Diskin this year?

Bwah ha ha

To quote the man himself "hes a champion player". Also comes across as a champion lad.

And hes better than that curly haired no mark at wigan.

Lets just say for arguments sake, that WIgan ever make a final with the head high merchant still playing for them. Do you honestly, honestly believe he would put in a performance anywhere near what Sinfield did last night? O Loughlin is nothing more than a steady eddie, someone akin to JJB or Chris Flannery.

He is no where near the class of Kevin Sinfield.

You were doing alright until you insulted JJB.

Dont know where the Diskin point comes from, he was decent lastnight, no better, no worse.

In terms of Sinfield he had a good game, he deserves the plaudits, that doesnt excuse the blatent flaws in his game does it?

There's a lot of talk about his strength in the tackle compared to O'Loughlin. I think all he really needs is to be able to bench press the weight of the SL trophy once a year..

I love you!!

Sinfield definately MOM. Not a Leeds fans but it still rankles with me why so few Leeds fans turned up for his testimonial a few seasons back.

Nobody turned up to my testimonial either, cant understand it to be honest, maybe its because I aren't a well paid Sportsmen?

Is that Oldham in that picture?

Having no Sky+ I've not watched the game afterwards but last night felt that Sinfield and Burrow kicked the living daylights out of Saints. Put that on top of an immense defensive performance, his leadership and constant talking to the players and pushing them at every opportunity, and Sinny was easily MoM.

I also though Senior, JP as usual, JJB, Bailey, Diskin and Hall put in excellent performances, Hall and Webb being there for everything that Long kicked at them.

From Saints, I thought Graham, Long, KC, Gilmour and Eastmond put in stand out performances. Graham showed before the hooter how much it hurt him to lose again, the guy wears his heart on his sleeve, but turns his blood to water week in week out, and I'd love to see him do that with JP and Moz for England this autumn.

Cometh the hour, disappeareth the man, as Pryce must have as his slogan. Long had to do everything with Eastmond as his assist last night in attack. Gilmour put some excellent runs in and both Long and Gilmour will be missed badly at Knowlsey Rd next season. While no longer the world's best, KC will also leave a massive gap in the Sts team when he retires.

Maybe it fits well for Saints to have an excuse in Bentham's decision, but there's nothing to suggest that a disallowed try and a Saints set of six would have resulted in anything better than five drives and a kick down the throat of Webb, as we saw the rest of the game. For Iestyn and Wobbie to proclaim Saints would have gone on to win off the back of that decision is laughable.

An excellent performance from two excellent teams, but the better off the two teams season long won it last night.
