Leeds have appeared in 5 out of the last 6 Grand Finals. They have won 4 out of five of these with the last 3 on the trot. This record puts them at the top. The Bradford team of a few years ago was certainly one of the best but they won their finals when there were no strong challengers. Leeds have won their GF's when there has been the equally strong Saints side to contend with.
It's Bradford, the only team who could rip appart any team week in week out!
Leeds and Saints, saints have won more but Leeds have done 3 in a row!
IMO 3 in a row is the greatest thing anyone has done since our era!
Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS

I'm sorry but that's just utter bull. Both the Saints and Wigan teams were stronger back then than they are now IMO.
It's far 2 difficult 2 call IMO as last seasons Leeds team was better than the one that played last night. They've certainly dominated over the past two three seasons tho

I have a lot of respect for the current Leeds team and i do think they are a good side but i defiantly just don't think the opposition is as great as it once was.
Its a testament to Bradford how ordinary they could make teams look

We can only hope Wane will sort Fielden out, I think he will but not to his previous form but into a really good prop!
