    Sky seem determined to try every bit of gimmickry at their disposal, helicopter cameras, panning cameras and reporters on the tryline. :confused:

    Good game so far though.

    Hate that camera that stays in line with the play, fairly sure I gave out about it last year too.

    Leeds just not getting any penetration, great Saints defence so far too.

    Think he got it down, brilliant, brilliant effort. Substitutions made all the difference for that.

    3 in a row decent game and well deserved, Toom will be drinking long into the night.

    Aye, wish I'd been there to join him. Will be booking my flights for next year as soon as they're available on Ryanair/Aer Lingus.
    Leeds got a bit of a rub with a few decisions but not enough to take the shine off the victory.

    Great game, great day out...don't know if Smith try was Legit, will need to watch it on the sky+. Thought Leeds looked comfortable throughout and dealt with everything the saints could throw at them. Webb was clearly off the pace and the loss of Big Ali was a blow, but luckily Senior, Barrow, Sinfield, Peacock all stood up when it counts.

    Fair play to Saints, tough on them and in truth but for a bounce of the ball here and there, who knows, but thats finals rugby for you I guess....
