Super League Grand Final 2008

Saturday 4th October 2008

St Helens 16-24 Leeds

Old Trafford, Manchester

I travelled to the Theatre of Dreams hoping that I could witness a repeat of last seasons result, when the Rhinos defeated St. Helens, to be crowned Super League Champions.

On a day when the heavens had opened, it was once again a glorious victory for Leeds, as they claimed back-to-back titles for the first time in their history.

Kevin Sinfield produced a kicking performance of the highest quality, as make-shift full back, Lee Smith, was awarded the Harry Sunderland trophy.

Unfortunately, I was unable to interview any players, but a video of Brian McClennan post match press conference can be found here:
