Proud of the team, fast start and great kicking game, all the guys spoke well after the victory too, Wembley here we come

I have never felt so confident watching a leeds side in a big game as i was around the time we scored the Hardaker that we would win.Saints showed grit to keep it a contest, Savelio was awesome,and Roby as always, but you always felt we had the edge.

Hope JJB isn't as bad as looks and what happened to Aiton, we are so much more fluent with him on the pitch but Burrow did all he could so not knocking him.

Delighted to have come through that and look forward to another Wembley final

Hope Aiton isn't injured too badly. Assume that was why he didn't come back on.

Think that's the end of JJB year

Aiton was the best player on the park for the first 20 minutes. After that I'd give MoM to Watkins or Moon (or, to be fair, Walmsley). We were superb in first half but let Saints have the ball on their line rather than getting repeat sets. Saints hang on when they should have 20+ down. Thankfully we accelerated away.

Came across well on TV for those who watched it there. Infinitely better Friday night presentation than we're used to and a full-looking atmospheric stadium. Much better than a Saturday afternoon for television and the casual veiwer.

Total respect from me the way you play the game is a joy to watch as a neutral (not so much today) That backline is breath taking. As you say greatly spoken after the game. Hope you win at Wembley

going by the way he was on gas and air going off I can't see him returning. I wasn't sure if he'd make this season his last anyway but I think he will now.
been a massive warrior for us over the years but I think his body is telling him its time to move on

Great performance, overall. The pack were outstanding in the first half, and was one of the quickest games of RL I've seen in a long time. The backs were superb, Hardaker was the standout for me, I thought he was man of the match. The guys in the middle laid the platform, and Kylie was brutal in defense, and Delaney just did the stuff most players hate doing.

The only negative is I thought was I thought Cuthbertson was kept on too long in the first half, but with Aiton already injured, it may have been a case of needs must.

Did keinhorst get about 6 mins ?

Great performance from all the players.
Thought Zak was MoM followed by Watkins.
Burrow played one of his better games and Delaney tackled all night long.
Shame about JJB
Singleton and Ward in for Keinhorst and JJB next week
Aiton looked ok coming on the field after the game
Lets hope he is ok
Savelio looks a great prospect.

Agreed, Savelio had a great game I thought.

Sounds good about Aiton at least, losing him would be a bigger loss than JJB I think .

Which end are Leeds for the final

Aiton would be a huge loss.Hope JJB is not as bad as looked but if it is it could be the end unfortunately.fingers crossed he deserves some luck.

Am i the only one thinking Sinny was nowhere near MOM?

Does it really matter?

Nope, Hardaker, Watkins, or Cuthbertson IMO

Not for you no

Davies always gives kickers or half-backs MoM. He was the only weak link in the BBC's coverage, which otherwise was years and years ahead of Sky.

I think I'd have given Moon MoM, followed by Watkins, Hardaker, Walmsley, Peacock, Cuthbertson and Saviello. Then maybe I'd have started thinking about Sinfield.

Hardaker, Moon or Watkins were ahead of Sinny.

Kn0b

Absolute light year away, Some of Hardakers kick chases should have earned him it for me.

All of the above i agree with craigizzard, Hardaker was my choice though and Savelio must have been close even in a beaten team.

Sinfield was about his usual 7 out 10 tonight but i didn't see anything too special and infact he missed a few important tackles if scrutinised.Probably given it to whet the apetite of the Union fans and his iminent cross code move!

East, same as last year

going to speak to the rfl sales person tomorrow to book final tickets, they rang me believe it or not to promote ticket for the england vs nz tests, i booked tickets for the olympic stadium and the guy asks re challenge cup, i said yes if Leeds get there, so should know tomorrow, hopefully the same end as last year

East End

Well done, the best team tonight won.

We played brilliantly tonight we deserved it can't wait for final and hopefully will see sir Kev lifting cup above his head again. Well done Leeds!!!
