Another dominant performance, a repitition will bring the trophy home next week.

That is the best performance by the pack this year. They were very good at Wire in the 0-28 win but Huddersfield forwards are better than Warrington's.
Their fitness is exceptional. In the 78-79th minutes they were still getting 3 men into each tackle.
I don't think any other team can match their fitness levels.

If you play around the POTB area then the forward will emerge! If Wigan had followed their play off approach throughout the season we wouyld be tal;king Wigan for a treble NOT Leeds!

We can dominate British RL in the next 5 years.

That's very true. However, I can't remember seeing a team dominate an entire season, plus the playoffs and then win the Grand Final. The mental pressure is absolutely immense at that level of competition.

You don't often see top flight golfers winning major comps all through the year. They might win the really big comps but then not figure too greatly in the smaller tournaments. Football is slightly different, mainly due to the sheer size of the average squad.

I agree that we could probably have played better, on the whole, for the majority of the season. But what's the point in burning out mentally, before September, if the only silverware is the CC at the end of August and then the LLS at the very end of the year. Leeds played well for the regular season, but since the CC Final they've been pretty mediocre, to say the least. They only just scraped a win against Huddersfield, who should have closed the game out anyway, imo. I think tonights game is really up for grabs and I wouldn't be surprised to see Saints beat them, it's that close.

All that being said, if we carry our confidence into next week and our pack plays like they have recently, we should come away with the spoils.

I havent seen a prop forward run like that for many many years

I think how Ben is playing now is a reflection of how long it has taken to overcome the GF.

Crosby has been as good as any front rower in the competition in the last month.
