Ignorance truly is bliss.

I agree with all of this.

I don't really mind who wins (Leeds would be nice as we don't get many british winners) but i want a good game.

Also, I am suspicious of PAdders. I think he may be the most overt troll on this board.

I agree with you Padders. The World Club Challenge should be England's best v Australia's best. Warrington and Wigan were head and shoulders above the rest last season. Nobody could get near them. St Helens in third were way in front of the rest as well.

A competition where 27 games don't really matter if you have a bad game at the end is a joke.

Im sure even your own fans are highly embarrassed by that post.

If Manly win - proof that the Australians are light years ahead of us still

If Leeds win - proof that the whole concept of World Club Challenge is a joke

It's like going fishing for Mackerel ! LMAO !
Still don't think Leeds are good enough to win it though!

Dont care who wins it to be honest.

Suppose I was wrong congratulations Leeds !
We are still the better team though ! Nothing will change that !

Quite an admission that Padders. I thought Leeds were tremendous tonight. Ashley Klein was terrible with his lack of authority at the ptb, and the two spear tackles.

Good for Super League !

Is this the same team that was beaten by Wigan? And who's that new Peacock bloke, and what have they done with the old one?

What a great game and massive well done to leeds. I think they must have been saving some in the tank v wigan! Awsome.

Top game of rugby that, loved it.

Two spear tackles and one obvious lead with the elbow. I'll bet nobody on the Manly team gets disciplined. It would have been a travesty if a Leeds player had been sin-binned after that. Great game. I found myself shouting at the TV.

Me too.
Enjoyed it. Manly blew it with that lead with the forearm. They had Leeds on toast at that point.

The fact that a team that finished four places behind us in the league, has just beaten the best of the NRL, shows how far ahead of the NRL we are at the moment, could this be the historic day when for the first time ever we can truly say Warrington are the best club team in the world?

I'd agree with that. Mind you, Peacock took some real hammer but never stopped moving forward.

Really great game of rugby league tonight. Great for the sport.

I have like wire fans since wembley 2010,and Padders is OK too

It was a good game by two good teams , would have been good to see the two best teams from each hemisphere play each other but maybe we will play Melbourne next year !

Congrats go to Leeds. Beat a very rusty and what looked like dis-interested Manly side, especially in the first half. You can only beat what's in front of you though I guess.

Spear tackles on Ryan Bailey should be made legal... Kind of like punching a Wiganer.



I found it very frustrating as I couldn't help but cheer for Manly - but how one of the Leeds players didn't go in the bin is beyond me. Standard Ashley Klown. Saying that King should be shot for that elbow. Helmet.

When Manly clicked Leeds really looked vulnerable. The interception always had the Sea Eagles chasing the game and that leading with the elbow/forearm changed the momentum back and more or less sealed the win at that point.

Great game for RL. Trending worldwide on Twitter. Not too shabby.

But at least we all now know that Warrington Wolves are the best team in the world.

Oh and on record, Brent Webb should be a QB in American Football. That bloke can't pass backwards!

Thought Leeds deserved their victory with both sides really wanting to win for the WWC. Manly would have
had the same preparation as their season kicks off around the same time as ours. Peacock was outstanding tonight as were the
rest of the side. I think most rl wire fans will recognize what a great performance that was and realize that it's quite understandable
that we lost to Leeds in the playoffs last year after that performance. One day, lets hope we could emulate them.

Manly have played 1 warm up game with their reserve grade players and the season doesn't start for 3 weeks yet. Hardly the same prep is it?

Don't want to detract from Leeds before anyone starts moaning. Deserved winners, even if they did get the rub of the green - again.

Great performance full of grit and determination. They had little field position in the second half and deserved the win for some heroic defence.

I hope they don't show as much spirit against us in a few weeks!
