I don't doubt it, Puletua for Saints is as important at Lauitiiti for Leeds. Both very entertaining players to watch and can create out of nothing.

Let's hope the Cup game is as good as Friday's.

The outcome of Friday nights game has told me 2 things.
1. Most Leeds fans don't really care that Leeds lost. It happens, and nothing more than 2 points was a stake. We have a pretty decent recent history against the Scousers when trophies are to be won. It'll happen again in October.
2. The Scousers are the most insecure of all SL fans. Some Scouse muppet has started a thread over on their forum stating that Leeds Rhinos can win as many trophies as we can but we'll never have the class and skill that St Helens RLFC have!!!

Laugh? I nearly choked on my cornflakes pi5sing myself :):)

Scousers know as much about 'class' as I know about hot wiring a car

I suspect the one thing the team wants this year is not a Grand Final, but actually a pop at the Challenge Cup. Tonight's game might have done us some favours with regards to beating Saints in a game that matters, namely at Headingley in 2 weeks.

A worthless competition according to a lot of Leeds fans on here.

Not really.

No one is normally interested until it gets to the semi finals

Even then it's just to check when and where the final takes place. Is it still Cardiff in August?

i went to every final for 15 years. recently a lot of the lads i went with have stopped going and also i don't really enjoy the new wembley. i didn't go last season and don't think i will go this unless leeds get there

I'd quite happily take going out of the cup if it meant winning SL this year, especially as we're going for 3 in a row. I'm not saying it's not important, the mere fact it's our only chance to get a national terrestrial audience is a big enough reason, but it's not the main prize.

Lucky teams can win cups, only good teams can win titles.
