It shouldn't have gone down to the last minute.



Sinfield missed 3 penalty kicks and normally he would kick them all.



Whether it was in the last minute, or the first, leeds scored a try and wigan didn't, you can't really argue with that.

You're in cloud cuckoo land to claim the try was flukey. Jordan tansey, millenium magic is flukey. Lee smiths try was a combination of try scoring instinct and a tired wigan defence.

It wasn't genius, but it wasn't flukey either, you're showing yourself up there by claiming that.



Smith beat 3 players to ground the ball, when he received the ball from sinfield there wasn't much on. Yet, with 1 minute to go, in a tryless game up to that point, in a knockout game, msith made it something to score the winning try.



I'm a bit bewildered by you reaction to that play from smith.



I can only assume, as a bradford fan, you were sitting there with 2 minutes to go and rather warming to the propspect of leeds going out of the cup, but then up steps smith, and right royally cheeses you off. Understandably so, but let's not talk rubbish by claiming a good try was a fluke.

Yup. Lots of needless bitterness on this thread. Everyone thought Leeds weren't up to it this year and that the new breed, the 'New Wigan' were going to join Warrington in rearranging the glory this year.



Doesn't look so likely now.

cant see leeds beating warrington or st helens to be quite honest

Leeds beat warrington just 2 weeks ago.

and wakefield beat leeds just 2 months ago

Yup. A few people were quick to write leeds off this year.



But the fact is that despite aa poor start to the season, and an indifferent first half of the season, leeds are in the semis of the cc and closing in on 4th place in the league (when many suggesting they may struggle to make the playffs).



Not too shabby.

Good for you.



But you said leeds couldn't beat warrington.



We beat them 2 weeks ago.

Thats right I cant see Leeds progressing any further in the cup if they get Saints or Warrington in the next round

2 weeks ago has nothing to do with the challenge cup semi final

well done today though it was in the bag for Wigan right till the last seconds

Theres a big gap between now and the semi final. Leeds are just starting to gain in confidence and form. The last 3 weeks have been huge. You're entitled to your opinion I just think it's foolish to form an opinion on games so far away.

This thread is Epic Win.



That is all.
