Sat 10 Apr: CC3: St Helens v Leeds Rhinos KO 14:30 (BBC)

[Harry Stottle]

Not many better from acting half than Dwer, Liam Hood perhaps?

[bobbruce]

Clever by Prior held Walmsley out of position. 

[JonM]

Looks like a try this.

[Hela Wigmen]

It’s a try because there’s not enough evidence to suggest otherwise despite no actual footage of the ball on or over the line. 

[GeordieSaint]

He lost that... angle at the back.

[Ullman]

Well well, the contest is back!

[The Hallucinating Goose]

Blockbuster finish here!

Getting desperate Geordie?

[Rupert Prince]

70 boring minutes but may be 10 exiting ones.

That really was not a try.

Laws of the game state the referee does not have to see the ball grounded to award a try

Yet Football fans don't beat their sport up when there is a 0-0 or a 1-0, they just accept its part of the game and move on to the next as they love their sport.

In fact Union fans are enthusiastic about their game despite every single game being tedious to watch.....

It’s been a poor low quality game,from 2 of our biggest clubs,what has football got to do with that.

Seems not.

 

[Dunbar]

For everyone who has stopped watching it, but bizarrely still commenting on it, come back it's going to be a good finish.

Not a lot kid - just pointing out some RL fans seem to beat the sport up if s game isn't amazing - other sports just accept it and move on.

[Futtocks]

St Helens bring Paasi on, only a few minutes after he went off. They are very aware of the threat that Leeds pose in the final minutes.

Not at all. They only showed that back angle once... looked very like Roby’s effort.

[DEANO]

How many times are they gonna tell us that Leeds have 12 players out

I take your point.  I thought Robys was a bit further out, but I did not think Dwyers effort was a try either.

But they don’t “son” if it’s a ###### game of football/Union or bar billiards their fans are critical RL fans are no different.

[Rupert Prince]

Saints look weary.  Is Warmsley overrated?

If Leeds had had a decent kick they would have done better.

Edit... Couldn't Grace not get in with that?  But a straightforward  way to move to take advantage of an extra man with Makinsons try.

[Rage]

Extremely proud of the Leeds boys. Can't ask for more. 

[GeordieSaint]

Great try at the end by Saints. 

[Futtocks]

Makinson with the match-winner? Less than 2 minutes to go.

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Game over.  Tough luck on Leeds in the end.  Red card proved decisive.
