Quote:Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.

Probably so for Pryce in '99 with the Bulls while in 2000 it was Wigan.
Leon Pryce has appeared in more Grand Finals than any other player with 8 Appearances and a 4:4 win / loss record. (The only other players with 4 losses to their credit are Lee Gilmour and Terry Newton)
The player with the most wins is Jamie Peacock with 5 from 7 Appearances.

To be fair over the season they were, one good game when it matters doesnt mean Leeds are the best team of that season. All the grand final shows is that you were the best team in the playoffs. I thought Leeds should of been aiming for top spot last season and hoped Leeds would kick on from the success the year before. Tonight they were found wanting in a few positions and my thoughts are that Bluey should of thought of a replacement for Eastwood when he was first turned down for a visa, we also looked really bad on the side of Smith and Donald. Smith will never be a Centre.
