I was as proud tonight watching at home (sorry I live in ireland - no excuse I know) as I was at the semi-final. The lads put absolutely everying in and didn't deserve to lose. Well done lads!

Absolutely fantastic effort from the lads tonight. Luckily for Saints Ian Smith doesn't know the difference between a ball going backwards and forwards. I just hope Nathan doesn't make those lads do the naked run at the end of the season for the effort they put in tonight.

Watched the game tonight and was proud for you guys. The defence that you show is terrific and slowing the paly the ball down is part of the game. You'll find it's 1 rule when Stains tackle you and slow the play the ball and don't stand square and another when they you play them at their own game. Well done and best of luck next week!

tough luck giants - sounds like you gave Sts a real scare tonight. hopefully we softened up wire for you tonight. Here's hoping you bring the CC back to the right side of the pennines next week. best of luck

Thanks guys, it's heartening to know we've got a large chunk of Yorkshire people behind us.

And a few Lancs (or Mancs). Unlucky tonight, what an awesome effort. I've said for a few years you had the makings of a brilliant team - a huge pack just needed direction, a back line to do it justice, and someone at the helm to take it all in hand. You've bullied us (Wigan) in the pre-season games for a few years now (and a few in-season games!).

Best of luck in the CC final - and if we can't win the GF, Hudds will get my backing.

We wuz ROBBED, , when they put up our team on the scoreboard i thought we`d get stuffed but the BOYS ripped into the stains and had em reeling on the ropes , to lose by that narrow margin was for me a VICTORY , just a thought , is that the first time that any S/L team has ever played a match with all 17 `home grown ` players so to speak, as in not ONE overseas player turning out for us?

Congratulations to one and all at hudds, the future looks good for you
great performance tonight superb defending just like the real 1st team

good luck for next week - win it for west yorks,

awesome display, proud to be a giant tonight for sure! heart and soul and a whole lot more shown well done lads

It's a bit of a beggar when you go to Saints, play your reserve side, lose by only 2 points, and come away disappointed that you didn't win.

OUTSTANDING.
