2012 Grand Final - Leeds v Warrington

[farmduck]

Well I certainly got it wrong. This weekend Leeds beat Wigan 13-12 after leading 11-0 at half time. In the other game, Warrington 36 beat St Helens 18 after trailing 14-12 at the break. At least they saved Saints from losing their 6th consecutive GF. Leeds, who finished 5th on the ladder ill now be hoping to repeat last year's GF win from 5th position. Warrington have won the Challenge Cup in 2009, 2010 and 2012 but haven't won a play-off GF since 1973-4\. (England hasn't always had GFs as we know them. Some years the top team at the end of the regular season became the "Champions." Warrington last became "Champions" in 1954-55)

The game should be on Eurosports (Foxtel Ch.511) next Sunday morning about 3.00am.

Gonna have to tape it and watch it later . Watched the super League Grand Final in 2009 between Leeds and St Helens at old Trafford, was awesome atmosphere . Our atmosphere has nothing to them.
Had a photo with Sinfield after the presentation . I'm a Leeds supporter in both codes . M.O.T

There's a repeat Sunday 8.30pm on Eurosports.

I hope Wire win because it doesn't help SL to have the same clubs winning every year. Since SL started in 1996 only 4 teams have won a GF and only 5 have even contested the GF. Warrington will be the 6th. Is it any wonder that clubs like Salford and Wakey consider 6,000 a good crowd, when their teams have no hope, year after year?

Unfortunately Warrington failed to score the big Double, after hitting the lead with 2 quick tries Leeds over run the Wolves on the back of some contentious penalties, brave effort from the Wire and hopefully they can continue their rise up the ladder and Hull FC with some good signings can challenge the Top 4, Kevin Sinfield Man Of The Match (winning the Lance Todd Medal I think).

Better team won unfortunately, bit of a dud game compared to the NRL GF
Wolves = too many errors…poor 5th tackle options....probably score flattered em a bit

Leeds more clinical , great side , they have that been there done that factor.
Richie Myler is an awesome halfback for the Wolves , maybe he can cut it in the NRL.
Go the Rhinno's. M.O.T

I have to disagree, i thought the game and the whole occasion was better than the NRL GF.

The Lance Todd goes to the MOM in the Challenge Cup final. The MOM in the SL GF gets the Harry Sunderland Trophy.
