[John Drake]

Discuss the Women's Challenge Cup Final: Leeds Rhinos v St Helens here.

[Cw25]

Leeds 12-32 St Helens

[yipyee]

Saints appear unstoppable but Leeds could rattle them if they score first and keep them out.

Saints 34- Leeds 6

[StandOffHalf]

Saints Ladies 46-0

[Wigan Riversider]

Love watching Tara Jones

[StandOffHalf]

I think the Rhinocerosesses are going to be in long 80 minutes.

[Sir Kevin Sinfield]

Leeds by 10

[Futtocks]

I doubt Leeds will be nilled because they are good, but St Helens women are a more dominant side than their male equivalent (who aren't exactly shabby themselves). 

[hunsletgreenandgold]

Saints by 12. 

28 - 16 as a prediction 

[daz39]

Shame this isn't a standalone but as a curtain raiser to a curtain raiser for the main game

 

Reckon Saints will be too strong for Leeds though it should be a smashing game.

This game is live on BBC2 but the fixture is not even listed on the BBC Rugby League page.

Leeds to upset Saints. Leeds by 2

Leeds by 4 

[Gerrumonside ref]

Jodie Cunningham of Saints is a good player to watch for those new to the women’s game.

Hoping for a competitive game.

My prediction is Saints 30-10 Leeds

[ckn]

This is a cracking game so far. Leeds over performing and fully in cup final mode. 

[gingerjon]

Enjoying this.

Leeds up 6-0 after 26 minutes.

[Craig Jarrett]

Let's hope the attendance for the mens game is better than this, those two games will give us a good indication of how empty the Tottenham stadium will be

###### poor attendance if this was a standalone final 

[ckn]

I don’t get these reviews taking so long. It should be “yep, behind, try” and move on with the game. 

[ckn]

I think Leeds’ strategy is to tie down the playmakers, but that’s causing gaps, and I think that try was Saints spotting it.

Makes the video ref feel important?

[Futtocks]

Leeds 8:4 St Helens at HT. Good game, and Leeds must be confident of overturning the champions.

[M j M]

Video refs on BBC have always seemed very clunky in operation.

Saints must be a bit rattled considering how dominant they have been prior to this game. Leeds will be happy with that though conceding a try will have been annoying.
