| Score line doesn't do the game justice. I thought it was a very entertaining game of Rugby League and frankly the best Wakefield performance I can remember for a time. Leeds had to give everything and played some really good stuff themselves to beat you.
I screamed at Washbrook like he was still a Hull FC player after that "pass". Such a shame as the break was a good one and I honestly think that if you had scored that try, you would have rolled on for the win.
Little consolation probably, but your lads have set a really good foundation for next season imo.

| Certainly no disgrace last night - even when the game was gone from us we were giving it everything. After another rollercoaster season that was a fine note to bow out on. We competed all the way, played some good rugby and if a few more passes had stuck then maybe, just maybe, it could have been a different story. Leeds were worth their win and I don't think I've felt so positive after a Trinity loss before.
Proud doesn't cover it.

| Proud of the boys last night, we played some good rugby for most parts and looked a very competent playoff side. Just a shame about some of the errors and things that didnt quite come off, if Washbrook had given that pass i would have fancied us to pip it at the end.
Leeds were just more clinical and had that extra bit of class at the end of the day, the scoreline wouldnt have been as one sided but we had no choice than to resorted to all out attacking rugby in the last 5-10mins which didnt quite come off for us, and Leeds took advantage. I thought the forward pass call earlier in the game when cockayne was put clear was dubious aswell and could have changed the shape of things when we were already in the lead. A bit frustrating when they got away with ones worse than that on consecutive occasions. Bring on next season.

Well done Leeds - bring on 2013.'"
Totally agree.. great year.

| We were totally under the cosh from leeds and some tremendous goal line defence kept us in the game, our effort was immense and we gave it a good go, there was a few breaks that we didnt either execute or make the right decision that could have changed the game and conceding a try on stroke of half time, and allowing them to break from 90yards out. Washy's pass wasn't great and if we would have been 4 points behind with 9 left I believe we could of gone on and won.
Top year, fantastic effort, made so many strides in so many areas on and off the field.

| Proud as punch with the side ok couple of things went against us a pass a mile forward for burrows first try and if you watch it again his second was iffy.Leeds lose the ball forward wakey player goes for ball a bit of a dust up scrum feed to Leeds now go back to first offence Leeds Knock on.Danny with the pass even a dummy pass would have seen him through or there abouts.I wont knock Danny for that its one of the very few errors he has made and think the guys been an absolute stand out for us over the season and how many could have run back and caught Hall like he did.

| Quote JayyRob2810="JayyRob2810"Absolutely outstanding effort by Wakefield, the game basically went down to the fact that Leeds had more star power and more game changing individuals than us. Every-time Kallum Watkins touched the ball, Lee Smith didn't have a clue how to defend against him and ended up on his backside, poor Ben Cockayne was then left by himself against Watkins, Jones-Bishop and Burrow on two occasions and he didn't have a chance.
In my opinion, Danny Cowling would be a preferred centre instead of Lee Smith - he is much quicker and better in defence (as seen against St Helens) and he would be a nice addition from the youth system....i can't remember if we have signed Lee Smith permanently? but if not then i hope he goes back to Leeds. Richie Mathers, Ben Cockayne and Peter Fox impressed massively under the high ball as that has been our weak point this season and it was a delight to see them jump confidently and almost with ease against the likes of Ryan Hall and Ben Jones-Bishop.
The Rhinos couldn't handle the connection between Tim Smith and Danny Washbrook/Frankie Mariano, they broke tackles every time they took on the line and on 2-3 occasions made a clean break and that is where I believe we are much stronger than Leeds as they rely on the pace and aggression of their young backs - Jones-Buchanan, Peacock, Ablett, Delany and co. don't have the power and precision that our forwards have....although it did constantly get me out of my seat that we didn't stop Peacock offloading!
Yet all in all i'm not going to be a bitter Wakefield fan and say we were cheated or the referee blew us the game as Leeds' tries were mostly off the back of our mistakes and IF Washbrook would have made that pass....who knows, we may all be celebrating. Brilliant season and effort by all the players and staff, looking forward to the 2013 season!'"
 Peacock was the best forward on the park by a mile.

| TBF I though Peacock put in a great stint for Leeds last nigh.
Over the past two years though ang going forward Kyle has been far better for us than Jamie has for Leeds, and as for Griffin and Moore  .
Coaches have favourites but Leeds overlooking Kyle shows a huge failing on McDermott IMO, but Leeds loss has most certainly been our gain.
According to a story I heard yesterday McDermott uncertain on his future after this season.

| When you consider how long the spine of whino's team has been in place compared to our completely reconstructed side, last night's performance, even without the pressure of the occasion was way beyond expectation ( as was even getting to last night).
Like majority here, don't buy into blaming individual errors costing us the game.
Really proud of what Trinity have achieved.
Main concern remains the size & pace of whino's ( & wigan)- & in case anyone throws It into the mix-Burrows is a one-off.
Not sure how we make the next step without mucho more dosh.

Care to reveal who got through more graft then? From where I was sat Peacock seemed to pull in 4 or 5 defenders every carry and got out a fair few off loads as well. Must just be me pal!
