| Of course Leeds wanted to win it as it is another stone in their treble bid. Make no mistake however, if we don't win at Old Trafford, it will mean nothing.

Careful now. You don't want to become too obsessed. It's not healthy.

Do you think you could muster up 3K fans even for a GF?

| Quote ="ThePrinter"Because the chance to complete a treble is a very rare thing.
It's not our fault that Hudds could only achieve a LLS under a league format where teams held back and paced themselves. We just won it under a format when all the teams were pushing and we managed to go all the way to Wembley at the same time. Hudds only won it in 2013 because Wigan took their foot off the gas to get themselves the cup and leave something for the playoffs.'"
we have a winner

If the Giants can't win then I would love Leeds to do the treble, Just because they have the chance, and I think it would probably stand a long time. Remember Huddersfield have won 4 in the season, and if you are going to reply, make it something sensible, I don't come on here for the agro'"
"Something sensible".....coming from a guy who referenced Hudds winning 4 in a season which was around 100 years ago? We're talking modern day, and all you lot are doing are kidding yourselves if you think the big boys always threw all their weight into the regular seasons and didn't pace themselves to be peak form come playoff time.
The big three's good playoffs records compared to Hudds constant disappointing playoff record shows this perfectly.

Its significance is different now because the league format is different.....you're doing a good job of making yourself look stupid by pretending the circumstances were the same.

Were you on for a treble 2 years ago? No. So it is not in any way at all similar.
As I said before, if we don't win at Old Trafford, last night will mean nothing.

We are, and in 2 years time we won't be bi*ching about the RL community not giving us more credit for what we've done this year.
Shame that your one single bit of success in recent times (the 2013 LLS) is filled with such bitterness that other clubs didn't praise you as much as you'd like.

I actually feel sorry for you. Instead of enjoying your win, you're instead feeling the need to try, and fail, to belittle other clubs. It's very sad, really. I give you my sympathies that you can't enjoy the achievements of your club and recommend some counselling.

You do realise the Hudds supporter is sulking because of Hudds triumph TWO years ago not getting the same recognition.
We won 24 hours ago, I have (and still am enjoying it).....pointing out to the team we faced 24 hours ago why our LLS is different from theirs when he was the one who brought up the subject of significance, well it's clear you lot our TRYING to downplay another teams success.....YOU'RE FAILING.....we are LLS winners in a much tougher format, we are enjoying it. Their isn't an asterisk next to our win that says "only because Wigan threw it away"
You're sat there trying to convince yourself that you've claimed a "win" by somehow lessening Leeds' success last night......that you and one or two others have made an effort to try and downplay it has actually only made the win SWEETER as it's shown its rattled you.
You've turned a good success, into a great success....well done

| Don't respond to pathetic trolls! Our team has proven we are capable of talking on the field! Ignore them, get to the game on Thursday and cheer them right to Old Trafford (where hopefully we will get a game against Leeds)! COYG

no, im sarcastically suggesting that Leeds fans shouldn't be celebrating something that they have refused to acknowledge as having any worth.
of course its different when Leeds win it, we always said it would be.
but i will always maintain that winning it in 2013 was a massive achievement for our club, obviously now we want the bigger prize but it was still a huge achievement for a poky little club with no fans!

the new system is better as winning the league is a massive advantage compared to the old system, I enjoyed watching us win the minor premiership, but most fans know that a couple of teams do rest players ready for play off footy, will it say that on the record sheet?...no, it will say we won it fair and square and to me that's all that matters

This is a pointless discussion. Rugby league started when it started, not when Leeds started to win things. That said if the Giants can't win the GF I would love Leeds to win , being the only other Yorkshire side. To win the treble would be something to really celebrate, there is a difference though between celebrating and gloating.

| Cant understand why you enter into dialogue with descendants of Dumbo !
.....and I was as gutted as any fan bout the result.
But more about the circumstances that led to it
Bottom line is :-
1 We forget that games last more than 75 mins - theyre 80 plus stoppages
2 We more than often cannot stamp our authority on games when we get in front -if we`d done that at Wigan we wouldnt have been having a discussion such as this
OK leeds went off the boil after the Cup Final and lost 3 games on the trot
It didnt matter a fig as they won the one that mattered - and more important to me we lost it !
8 points in front with 8 mins to go and they score 12 -think about it !
Refs -dont get me started ! But they`re what were faced with. Full time -and the standard is ****
The number of times Ive heard Mr Cummins say "I think he`s got that wrong" on Sky is frankly becoming boring but thats a separate never ending topic Against the recognised glamour clubs we HAVE to build leads that they cannot do anything about (ie the Warrington match) We were merciless -and thats how its got to be Cas did it against Leeds - but they also have a similar affliction!
Its hard reading I know and hurts
We won the LLS - but as yet we havent pushed on -and are still a "Nearly but not quite" team / club which for Ken must give him sleepless nights and even more grey hairs (or hes the patience of a saint )
Fortunately we are still IN the semi We proved in the past that in semis we often rise to the occasion
(Leeds at Odsal --Saints at Warrington ) So lets hope we do again - and carry the job through
We need to stamp it home that last Fridays history -and gone. Forget about it ! S--t happens - and theres two 80plus mins to sweat blood for glory Ken has done his bit and still is doing !The fans can do theirs and then its down to PA team selection and motivation We have the ability - just prove we can stay with the pace and PROVE weve stepped up to the mark and arent a "nearly team " any longer !
Its all down to us !
