There was the odd stupid pass and handling error but all in all a pretty good game.
A huge effort for Melbourne to win, in what was there first hit-out since doing the lap of honour last Sept. huge effort.
The most pleasing aspect of this game, was the will to win by both teams.
Both teams gave there all, with some brutal defence at times and some brilliant hands in swinging the ball wide.
There is talk of this WCC being re-structured.......I don't think it needs to be, these 2 clubs showed they were committed 100% to winning and as long as we have that we have a winner I believe.
A game played with plenty of spirit.

Rabbitts you the only poster on this site, dont they have a 606 for Aussies.
Good game but even though this was there first hit out the Storm had too much power and strength for Leeds who had a few skills but no one to hit up the middle

D&D.....yes there is numerous sites in OZ but it's all the same rubbish where people just want to rubbish opposition teams and not talk about this great game of ours....

the best team won Leeds are a team coming of age now the last two years when they won the grand finals have been flukes when those ageing stars leave they will be hard to replace,grand finals are a great spectacle but the team who finish top of the league should be the real champions should have been Wigan but its the play offs that count after a long season

I can understand where you are coming from barra.......but I can't see the sence in the 1st past the post, when there is the chance of it being decided weeks out from the final round...(as per Man.U)
We in OZ had that style many many years ago, un-like you lads.
Even in our soccer (football) we have the semi's concept......these days it mainly due to the idiot box owning the game though...

the feeling here is that it Americanizes sport (note the Z ) and that we are different , besides they play 38/40 games in the prem league, you end up on top you are the best, besides Murdoch makes enough over the season any way
