Very poor first half.Watts penalties led to two tries and some poor handling errors again, Pull ourselves back into the game and a missed tackle puts us out. massive opportunity missed as Leeds are far from a great side but were the best side on the night

Second best season on 28 years supporting the club; Leeds worthy winners on the night. Beeen a privilege to see Ellis captain this team of immortals, a true great of the game. Incredible how far we've come since the days of 11th under Agar. Disappointed tonight as we went close but on the grand scheme of things a very good season.

Could have rented a sports facility or even a hotel for the afternoon. Its not the first time traffic has affected the team over the last few years. Seems strange that we've spent money on cyro chambers during the season but then don't do anything special for the biggest league game of the year.

No complaints from me. You can only lose a semi-final by getting there in the first place. Lots of teams would swap places with us, given the season we've had. They can rest their bodies now and then come back even better next year. Its been a pleasure to watch the progress under Radders.

Agreed but overall on the night the right result IMO, no complaints whatsoever. Had a real dig, one of the two major trophies on offer, I'll take that.
first 25 min cost us, thought our pack looked off tonight, but that's rugby we got beat in a tight match, players looked gutted at the end, but looking at the bigger picture we are in a good position, more or less the same team next year plus micky Hadley abdull and fairoma to come in, plus it gives us something to play for next year, the double lol
once a black and white always a black and white COYH
