Quote ="Pie_Eyter"Well done Leeds. Absolutely no complaints from me about the result. I thought you showed a real 'Sinfield-esque' approach of trying to control the game when he used to basically dictate 25 other players around with his boot. Obviously not quite the kicking game last night but the decision to go for two, absorbing pressure and knowing when to strike had Sinfield's blueprint all over it. I though we were toothless with Tommy and Powell coming back in regardless of how much pressure we applied to your line in that first half.
I have laughed at the Bentley signing all season but last night he showed that when he controls his aggression and focuses on the task in hand, he is an international standard player. In that first half when we were on your line i was waiting for him to pop and do something silly with frustration but he held it together and it turned out that our international second rower was the one that lost his head with a shambolic tackle. I don't think he intentionally went in to harm Sezer in that way but he certainly did it intentionally to put a big hit on hm. He got it completely wrong and im so sorry that Sezer won't play next week. He has been a revelation since Smith took over.
Incredible that we are talking about Leeds in a GF after where you were at half way in the season. I think both of us have exceptional young coaches at the reigns and the march up the table will follow for both of us so there will be plenty of other big games to come me thinks between us.
Again, well done Leeds, best team won without a doubt. Brilliant game management.'"
Great humility shown sir.
It’s a miracle really what’s happened. I still don’t think a team who finishes 5th would be in the Grand Final, but we’ll take it with both hands…..
