Season ReviewExpect the unexpected. From the opening weekend excitement of Millennium Magic to the dramatic Grand Final at Old Trafford, Engage Super League XVI was full of shocks and surprises. In the regular season Warrington and Wigan battled it out for the League Leaders Shield and it went to the Wire. The wonderful Wolves scored over 1000 points on their way to securing top spot for the first time since 1973. The Warriors, led by super Sam Tomkins in scintillating form, pushed them all the way. Saints, Huddersfield, Leeds and Catalans were never too far behind in the chasing pack. Both Hull clubs enjoyed a top eight finish in a campaign that confirmed the strength in depth throughout Super League, while Castleford Tigers boasted Man of Steel, Rangi Chase, in their ranks. All topped off by the most unpredictable play-offs ever with Leeds and Saints defying the odds to reach the Grand Final. Relive all the best tries, twists and turns from an incredible campaign. What a season!
Grand Final
It was the greatest ever Grand Final and featured one of its greatest ever tries. Leeds Rhinos came from 16-8 down to secure a fourth and surely most satisfying Engage Super League title in five years with a scintillating victory over St. Helens. The Rhinos, who became the first team to win the title from fifth place, ran in four tries in the final quarter to turn a fabulous game on its head, condemning Saints to a heartbreaking fifth consecutive final defeat. Rob Burrow was the hero for Leeds, scoring one dazzling solo try and creating the vital one for Ryan Hall in a man of the match performance that sparked wild celebrations for the Rhinos.- Actors:
