The current team, and the newcomers for next year, plus a fit Buderus, could certainly become the greatest team of the SL era.

They're getting there.....and it's enjoyable.

Bradford Bulls at their peak were pretty awesome, and won every trophy one year, which Leeds have yet to do.....maybe next year???

We'll leave it to you and the Bulls to scrap for 2nd

CC.........................SL
96 SAINTS..............SAINTS
97 SAINTS..............BRADFORD
98 SHEFFIELD.........WIGAN
99 LEEDS................SAINTS
00 BRADFORD.........SAINTS
01 SAINTS..............BRADFORD
02 WIGAN...............SAINTS
03 BRADFORD.........BRADFORD
04 SAINTS...............LEEDS
05 HULL...................BRADFORD
06 SAINTS...............SAINTS
07 SAINTS...............LEEDS
08 SAINTS...............LEEDS
09 WARRINGTON......LEEDS


(WITHOUT A TROPHY)
SAINTS = 4
BRADFORD = 9
LEEDS = 9

(WITH A TROPHY)
SAINTS = 10
BRADFORD = 5
LEEDS = 5

Just a little reminder.


You lost!

Another 1 for you:

(SL era Doubles)

SAINTS = 2
BULLS = 1
LEEDS = 0

Also come back when you manage to win everything in a season, forgot to mention Bulls & Saints "been there done that"

Just another little reminder.



You lost.AGAIN!!!!

Los3rs

I am sure someone can do something with it

You're only as good as your last game.

Ooh ooh can i join in?
Couple of records for you:
Only team to finish top and not make the GF?? (clue- rearrange this word - Stains)
Only team to LOSE 3 GF's on the trot???

So do you believe any Leeds Rhinos team members will replace any of the exsisting Super League Ultimate 13: Grand Final Team?.
[iThis team was chosen before the Leeds Rhinos' victory over St. Helens in the 2007 Grand Final, and is based on player's performances in previous grand finals.[/i

Super League Ultimate 13: Grand Final Team

1.) Paul Wellens [iFull Back[/i (St Helens)
2.) Jason Robinson [iWinger[/i (Wigan Warriors)
3.) Jamie Lyon [iCentre[/i (St Helens)
4.) Michael Withers [iCentre[/i (Bradford Bulls)
5.) Lesley Vainikolo [iWinger[/i (Bradford Bulls)
6.) Henry Paul [iStand Off[/i (Bradford Bulls)
7.) Sean Long [iScrum Half[/i (St Helens)
8.) Stuart Fielden [iProp[/i (Bradford Bulls)
9.) James Lowes [iHooker[/i (Bradford Bulls)
10.) Apollo Perelini [iProp[/i (St Helens)
11.) Chris Joynt [iSecond Row[/i (St Helens)
12.) Jamie Peacock [iSecond Row[/i (Bradford Bulls)
13.) Andy Farrell [iLoose Forward[/i (Wigan Warriors)

Only team to win a WCC and SL in the same season!
Only team to win the GF that hasn't broke the RULES!
Only coach to win back to back SL titles.
And for the coup de gras the ONLY team to win the GF back to back to back!!
The future's bright the future's BLUE AND AMBER!

Well one of the current Rhinos team is already in there.

Could Peacock now qualify at second row and prop in an updated team?

I doubt it but it would be fitting.

Please don't embarrass yourself by putting WCC wins in there, all true RL fans know that they mean f**k all



The 3 in a row is one to be proud of, but then again Saints were the original back 2 back Champs in 1999/2000



In this Super League era for me if you truly want to call yourself the CHAMPION TEAM then that means finishing 1st backed up with a GF win.

Saints(2) 02,06
Bulls(2) 01,03
Leeds(2) 04,09
Wigan(1) 98

Why? You put CC wins in there

Leeds will have first crack at becoming the true back2back champions next season, will they be good enough

Surely the real standard for a Champion Team is to finish 1st, win the Grand Final and do so without breaking the salary cap

In which case

Leeds (2) 2004, 2009
Bradford (2) 2001, 2003
Wigan (1) 1998

Oh dear, Saints dont appear on this table of real Champion Teams
