Leeds Rhinos 20-20 Huddersfield Giants after 76:00 minutes.
Leeds with a chance of the drop-goal after Huddersfield put the ball down on half way, Sinfield fluffs it wide after immense pressure was applied to the Leeds loose forward by the Huddersfield defence.

Leeds Rhinos 20-20 Huddersfield Giants after 74:00 minutes.
Can this game get any better as Leeds come up thrumps with the short kick-off and on the last tackle the kick is there for the chasing Danny McGuire to touch down for the Leeds Rhinos as Headingley Carnegie shakes to the supporters jubilation.
Sinfield converts to keep his 100% record and what a finish we have here.

Leeds Rhinos 14-20 Huddersfield Giants after 72:00 minutes.
Larne Patrick breaks the tackle and is away fending off the Rhinos like flies and will beat the chasing Lee Smith to score, what a try, what a fantastic piece of individual brilliance with the youngster showing some superb upper body strength and pace to burn.
Cudjoe converts 1/1 with Brough off the field.

Leeds Rhinos 14-14 Huddersfield Giants after 66:00 minutes.
Sinfield adds the penalty 3/3 and we are al locked up at 14-14. What a fantastic game of Rugby league this has been.

Leeds Rhinos 12-14 Huddersfield Giants after 65:00 minutes.
Brad Drew kicks the ball out on the full and from the scrum Leeds recieve penalty number seven of the game and Kevin Sinfield has the chance to level the scores up.

Surely these two can't keep this intensity up as there really battering each other down the middle.
Twenty minutes to go, can the Giants hold on?

Leeds Rhinos 12-14 Huddersfield Giants after 52:00 minutes.
I don't know what's going on at the DW stadium 60 miles west of here but Jesus, both sides are realy going for it now as Leeds force their second drop-out of the game and from the drop-out the Rhinos go out wide down the right and Senior has the ball stolen but the loose ball ends up in the hands of Hall and he will cross in the corner.
Super stuff from Thaler to keep the whistle at bay, as Leeds benefit from great use of the advantage law.
Sinfield converts 2/2 and what a game we have here.

Leeds Rhinos 6-14 Huddersfield Giants after 45:00 minutes.
What a start to the half from the visiting Huddersfield Giants as David Hodgson scores his second as he beats Donald to the corner once again and the Huddersfield supporters on the Western terrace are celebrating as if they have won the Grand Final.
Headingley is shocked and Brough converts his first from out wide 1/3.

Leeds Rhinos 6-8 Huddersfield Giants after 42:00 minutes.
Brough puts the grubber into the corner behind Lee Smith who just stops to let the ball run dead but the chasing David Hodgson touches down right on the dead ball line, referee Thaler consults the in-goal judge who nods his head and the try is given to a shocked stunned silence.
Brough can't convert from the touchline 0/2.

Huddersfield get us underway for the second forty and it's Leeds who'll have first use of the ball.

Half-time
Leeds Rhinos 6-4 Huddersfield Giants
Great game if not a bit scrappy and ill disciplined (the penalty count stands at Leeds 5-4 Huddersfield) at times, but Huddersfield finish the half on top after Leeds certainly bossed the first twenty minutes.
It's been a game of few chances as you would expect with these two West Yorkshire giants neck and neck in the table.
-
Oh my word, Ben Thaler has given the second forward pass call against Leeds and the south stand look stunned and as I type Huddersfield are given the penalty with six minutes to half-time.
Massive set of six.

Leeds Rhinos 6-4 Huddersfield Giants after 28:00 minutes.
Sinfield drops the ball on the Huddersfield line after they were very fortuitous to be awarded a penalty on the last tackle.
Huddersfield slowly getting back into this game as a contest.

Leeds Rhinos 6-4 Huddersfield Giants after 22:00 minutes.
Sean Lunt with an absolute pearler of a try as he's put through in the gap and has the legs to go around Lee Smith to score in the corner.
Brough can't convert from out wide 0/1.
-
Leeds Rhinos 6-0 Huddersfield Giants after 16:00 minutes.
Chris Clarkson in under the black dot, after Leeds had forced the drop-out from the Giants.
Sinfield converts 1/1.
-
Leeds Rhinos 0-0 Huddersfield Giants after 12:00 minutes.
Leeds score the opening try but it's been chalked off by referee Thaler as a very predictable South stand shows it's disapproval of the ball.
-
Leeds Rhinos 0-0 Huddersfield Giants after 09:00 minutes.
Huddersfield down to 12 men after Griffin goes in late on McGuire and from the restart with Leeds declining the easy two points, Sinfield drops the ball.
Huddersfield in trouble early on, down to twelve.
-
A late change to the referee as Ben Thaler will take charge from Thierry Alibert.
The pa bloke at Headingley makes me laugh, he's so biased towards Leeds yet he does the Challenge Cup and Grand Final games.
Fingers crossed Huddersfield put up a good show as they enter the field.
-
Huddersfield Giants line up as follows:
David Hodgson, Leroy Cudjoe, Scott Grix, Michael Lawrence, Kevin Brown, Luke Robinson, Danny Brough, Eorl Crabtree, Lee Gilmour, Darrell Griffin, David Faiumu, Simon Finnigan and Stephen Wild.
-
Leeds Rhinos line up as follows:
Scott Donald, Ryan Hall, Keith Senior, Brett Delaney, Lee Smith, Danny McGuire, Kylie Leuluai, Jamie Peacock, Danny Buderus, Jamie Jones-Buchanan, Carl Ablett, Chris Clarkson and Kevin Sinfield

Where are the Huddersfield supporters?
I'll go as far to say that they have the poorest following out of all the current sides currently occupying the top eight.
-
Weather status update and it's clear blue skies with a slight breeze.

I'm in two minds as to go watch this game tonight or not.
The earlier match up this season between these two Giants at the Galpharm was an awe inspiring game which featured the very best defence and attack from both sides, with Huddersfield running out victors by twenty six points to twenty in front of over ten thousand.
This evenings match up has a somewhat somber feel to it with Huddersfield not being in the best of form of late despite a thirty points to twelve home win against Brian Nobles Crusaders last weekend.
While Leeds will want to get back on track following last weeks Hull Kingston Rovers master class as they left Craven Park very much the wounded Rhinoceros.
Could be a good one, could be a scrap for the points with sides looking to climb the table to claim a top four berth.
I'll say Leeds to just edge Fartown by as little as a try.
