:02:51. > :02:58.for hardy fans -- it is an afternoon for real men on the pitch and John

:03:14. > :03:22.will be a tight game. It is hard to pick a winner. Are you erring on one
:03:22. > :03:27.side. We always say of Huddersfield is this their year. They have played
:03:27. > :03:34.Leeds once this year, but I come back to the experience of Leeds and
:03:34. > :03:38.they have been there the last three years and haven't won. I like the
:03:38. > :03:41.dynamics in the key positions. I'm on Leeds. Do you sense with Leeds
:03:41. > :03:47.that because the Challenge Cup matters so much to them, because
:03:47. > :03:54.they haven't got their hands on it for so long, that a nervousness can
:03:54. > :03:58.come into their play? Yes and you have got to play what is in front of
:03:58. > :04:03.you. This is a big enough hurdle. It does bring about a pressure. Because
:04:03. > :04:06.it is trap door football. The reason we are here is if one team falls out
:04:06. > :04:13.and that brings its own anxiety and you have got to nail your

:05:24. > :06:12.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:06:12. > :06:17.Sinfield. Before we talk about him, extraordinary performer. We can be
:06:17. > :06:22.guilty of overexaggeration in sport, but is he one of the modern greats?
:06:22. > :06:30.Yes one reason he has been 16 years at the top level and you talk about
:06:30. > :06:39.judging someone it is on longevity. Sometimes we can be disrespectful to
:06:39. > :06:45.him. We talk about his kicking game and the way he leads the that team
:06:45. > :06:49.but the man he hands out coaches' trebgss and -- directions and
:06:49. > :06:54.defensively and he handles the pressure well. He is one of the true
:06:54. > :06:59.greats. I would say in my time in the country he is the best club
:06:59. > :07:06.player I have seen here. Let's concentrate on his place kicking. If
:07:06. > :07:11.you goo on the BBC web-site there a piece with him and George Riley on
:07:11. > :07:16.his kicking. He talks about his telescopic tee. He makes sure that
:07:16. > :07:22.the top of the tee is pointing straight in the middle of the post
:07:22. > :07:26.and he uses the ball, which has four lines on it as a kind of target.

:07:36. > :07:44.sinister -- centre of sticks. He will strike the ball with a massive
:07:44. > :07:50.to be through. We have been trying to show this. -- follow through. One
:07:50. > :07:56.of the key characteristics of his kick is the follow through. Is that,
:07:57. > :08:01.is your hip all right? It will go back. I will get Ian to give it a
:08:01. > :08:09.shove. Is the way the ball is placed and the follow through, is that
:08:09. > :08:13.normal in kickers? It is just, he never misses. His system is perfect.
:08:13. > :08:18.Week in, week out. He has perfected that through practice, the hours he
:08:18. > :08:25.practices on field before anyone gets there, that is the reason for
:08:25. > :08:30.his success. So he can kick from anywhere on a field? In the big
:08:30. > :08:39.games under pressure, your technique comes into question and this
:08:39. > :08:44.preparation and his preparation is why in the big games Kevin Sinfield
:08:44. > :08:51.always kicks the ball over. We can analyse it and try and work it out.
:08:51. > :08:55.But it does leave even the best But it does leave even the best
:08:55. > :09:00.coaches bemused. I'm just getting over therapy after that one. He has
:09:00. > :09:07.been a great example for coaches with current players. If you work
:09:07. > :09:14.hard, we say, you will get results, and we use him as an example. It is
:09:14. > :09:23.a habit thing and it is a good habit. But he is a leader. Let's gef
:09:23. > :09:33.you -give you the -- let's give you the stats for Kevin Sinfield. That
:09:33. > :09:34.
:09:34. > :09:42.bottom one, 89% success rate. The lowest rate he has got is 75%.
:09:42. > :09:47.freaky. That is freaky by anybody's standards. And his on field play is,
:09:47. > :09:52.his infield kicking, the way he kicks the ball when not going for
:09:52. > :09:56.goal is tremendous. He kwets -- gets Leeds into the right parts of the
:09:56. > :10:05.field and then they can score tries. His general kicking is a better
:10:05. > :10:11.facet of his game. That is one of Rhinos' main men. And here is one of
:10:11. > :10:17.the Giants' main men. #i9 is suggested when Huddersfield are
:10:17. > :10:22.without Brough they cannot perform as well. You can see him warming up.
:10:22. > :10:29.He will be given the job of removing the forwards. But his strength is
:10:29. > :10:34.his ability to side step off both feet and his turn of pace and his
:10:34. > :10:38.world class kicking. Importantly for Danny tonight is he will be able to
:10:38. > :10:42.show case his skills at the highest level to the England coach. If he
:10:42. > :10:51.does that, well if he place well tonight he can prove he can be in
:10:51. > :10:57.that England team for the World Cup. It is all in his hands. We take a
:10:57. > :11:04.look at a couple of backs and now a couple of big lads up front. Who
:11:04. > :11:12.will you pay attention to? We talk about big games the men up front.
:11:12. > :11:18.These two, the amount of carries they have is the most by any in
:11:18. > :11:27.they have is the most by any in their team. They're man mountains. A
:11:27. > :11:31.forward probably sets the goal of getting 100 metres but they get 150
:11:32. > :11:35.or 180. Their total for the season is system. But it is not all about
:11:35. > :11:44.attack. They're the rock in defence. If you look at their average
:11:44. > :11:50.tackles, Jamie makes more tackles in a game and Eorl Crabtree has 26. So
:11:50. > :11:57.presence they have and how dominant they are in the game. And they speed
:11:57. > :12:03.the game up and get off-loads and create doubts. They get to run off
:12:03. > :12:12.the back of those guys that we have seen. You make a good point, at this
:12:12. > :12:19.so far, Lunt and Brough are run more dummy half than any. Why? Because of
:12:19. > :12:29.those two. With Jamie Peacock, when Leeds are in a sticky patch, he will
:12:29. > :12:32.
:12:32. > :12:36.find a play that gets them moving forward. It he is the catalyst to
:12:37. > :12:46.turn around performances. OK, the two coaches today, they were team

:12:47. > :12:54.may wants at Murrayfield in 2000, taking off as they won. They're on
:12:54. > :12:58.opposite sides, but they're talking with Tanya. You were at Bradford
:12:58. > :13:06.with Brian McDermott. People say you're building this team in that
:13:06. > :13:11.image? No, it is a bit disrespectful to them and us. It is a simple game
:13:11. > :13:16.if you have got good sides and ow you're -- and you're nice and
:13:16. > :13:21.athletic, you can put pressure on people. Your record has been
:13:21. > :13:27.spectacular, but in the Challenge Cup you keep getting so close, how
:13:27. > :13:32.much do the players want it? At the start of each year there was some
:13:32. > :13:39.trophies up for grabs and the channel Cup -Challenge Cup is one
:13:39. > :13:44.and it is a huge honour to be part of it. It is massive to be in the
:13:44. > :13:50.final and we want to win the thing. But there is some good teams there.
:13:50. > :13:54.You have got to be good to get to the final. It is massive for the
:13:55. > :14:00.team and the club and the town as a whole. One thing that we are
:14:00. > :14:03.striving for, we want to win some silverware and emulate what Leeds
:14:03. > :14:09.have achieved. We have two of the best kickers on the field, how key
:14:09. > :14:14.are they going to be? I think it will be a big part and I think the
:14:14. > :14:21.ball will be greasy, it is wet out there and while it won't be
:14:21. > :14:27.torrential rain, we may have drizzle, but the ground is already
:14:27. > :14:33.wet. I think that will limit some of the ambitions. So how else will you
:14:33. > :14:37.get field position and kicking will be a great part. They're both great
:14:37. > :14:47.and whoever will get their kicks away the west will -- best will have
:14:47. > :15:01.
:15:01. > :15:08.How much do you think the weather will affect the game? Sinfield has
:15:08. > :15:16.a great backspin. They are waiting to go out into the wet and windy

:17:51. > :18:01.part. The 40-20 could be crucial for Huddersfield but I think Leeds
:18:01. > :18:20.
:18:20. > :18:26.will start as favourites. They do Danny Brough found a really good
:18:26. > :18:36.kick in the middle so loud let us see what Leeds have to offer. --

:20:02. > :20:07.side lines, that will be part of the play today. It gives

:20:14. > :20:19.and restricted Leeds territory. They will have to put pressure on

:29:53. > :29:59.the right-wing. Eorl Crabtree is away and how about that for a
:29:59. > :30:04.tackle? Huddersfield try to get it away and Watkins is there. They

:30:14. > :30:14.
:30:14. > :30:19.blind pass, didn't he? He fancied himself on Hardaker. This is where

:30:58. > :31:03.for me, that is a 12-point turn around. Huddersfield shouldn't have
:31:03. > :31:09.scored from that break by Eorl Crabtree. But typical Leeds, on the
:31:09. > :31:18.rebound, here they come, they don't panic and this is the final part, a

:32:11. > :32:15.they panicked. Kevin Sinfield from the touchline. But not this time. A
:32:15. > :32:25.cheer from the Huddersfield fans almost of relief that Kevin Sinfield
:32:25. > :32:27.
:32:27. > :32:35.has started with a miscue. But 8-4 in Huddersfield's favour. He's class
:32:35. > :32:39.player, Calum cat nce -- Watkins, he has a very bright future. It is now

:34:03. > :34:09.way out of trouble here. It has been a terrific start to this tie. We
:34:09. > :34:19.know they're two high class teams. Not much between them in the Super
:34:19. > :34:29.
:34:29. > :34:33.inside. Cudjoe back to McGillvary and McGillvary runs into the arms of
:34:33. > :34:43.Ryan Hall, who is a relieved man to stop that move. But there is one
:34:43. > :34:48.
:34:48. > :34:58.more tackle to go. And Wardle is over for another Huddersfield try
:34:58. > :34:59.
:34:59. > :35:04.and another eye-catching score in a breath-taking game. Again they took
:35:04. > :35:09.the opportunity to go wide. They're causing damage on the fringes. It is
:35:09. > :35:16.a great off load. But I thought it was a forward pass. Definitely
:35:16. > :35:22.forward. But the chip is the right option. On this occasion what they
:35:22. > :35:27.don't do is they do not panic. They all cluster towards the player with
:35:27. > :35:32.the ball, the Leeds defenders. They have numbers on the left and that is
:35:32. > :35:41.very good finishing. Great execution. And the opposite so what
:35:41. > :35:47.they did last time. They didn't panic, they looked up and moved the
:35:47. > :35:55.ball quickly. The width they're putting opt ball and Tex --
:35:55. > :36:02.execution is causing Leeds problems. Here is Danny Brough, the goal kick
:36:02. > :36:10.attempt from that left hand side. Has he got it? No he hasn't. But
:36:10. > :36:15.12-4 represents a health ji -- healthy start for Huddersfield.
:36:15. > :36:20.this forward? Yes, #i79 is. -- it is. The Leeds fans were calling the
:36:20. > :36:27.forward pass. And that was forward. The finish wasn't there. They have
:36:27. > :36:37.got the width on the width of the field well forwardle to scoot in at
:36:37. > :37:14.
:37:14. > :37:23.the -- well forwardle to get in Hardaker will try to go himself.
:37:23. > :37:29.That is tackle five. Here comes the last. Robinson gets it and has to
:37:29. > :37:35.knock it back. That is a big challenge for Huddersfield, Leeds
:37:35. > :37:40.haven't had a lot of possession and they look very dangerous. This won't
:37:41. > :37:45.be too bad, a restart under the posts, because they will get a long
:37:45. > :37:50.distance on this kick. The attacking skills are brilliant at the moment.
:37:50. > :37:55.In the windy conditions, it is a very high skill level. We need to
:37:55. > :38:05.take our hats off about the quality of the attack and the quality of the
:38:05. > :38:19.
:38:19. > :38:28.Well a couple of little handling mistakes and fun Iy -- funny how the
:38:28. > :38:35.game can spin against you. That is the difference, discipline and a few
:38:35. > :38:41.handling errors. It is a ten-point wind f you think about tactics, this
:38:41. > :38:51.wind has a big influence to play on the game. It is tough to get out of
:38:51. > :39:29.
:39:29. > :39:39.must have seen something about the inside ball. Brough puts it high,
:39:39. > :39:40.
:39:40. > :39:48.but too long. It is out of play. We can go to the touch line and hear
:39:48. > :39:55.from Tanya. A fast and furious start? Yes it is. They have started
:39:55. > :39:59.well to get in front. They will want to finish the half strong. You must
:39:59. > :40:04.be desperate for them to get through? Yes it was gutting to miss
:40:04. > :40:14.out. But hopefully they can do the job today. Thanks for your time. No
:40:14. > :40:44.
:40:44. > :40:53.Huddersfield touch here. I think it was more ball played man, rather
:40:53. > :41:00.than man played ball. So it will be Huddersfield's. It has not gone down
:41:00. > :41:07.well with the Leeds contingent. played, said the referee. No, it
:41:07. > :41:12.just hit him on the head. Clean bowled. The rules are such that if
:41:12. > :41:22.it hits you, you have got to have played at it, to give the other side
:41:22. > :41:56.
:41:56. > :42:02.a couple left here. There is the fifth. Crabtree has to move in at
:42:02. > :42:08.dummy half. He looks around, there is only me here! Another huge kick
:42:08. > :42:17.taken by Hardaker on this occasion. That is a long kick. But I don't see
:42:17. > :42:27.why they go for that 40-20. The ball has been dropped. They have lost
:42:27. > :42:37.yards and lost momentum. There is a lot of Leeds forwards walking back,
:42:37. > :42:44.
:42:44. > :42:54.it has been a very fast opening few got pace, but he has got
:42:54. > :42:57.
:42:57. > :43:02.determination. And held down so, a penalty for Leeds. You fancy they
:43:02. > :43:09.will have another six goes at this Huddersfield line. It is a great
:43:09. > :43:17.break by Bailey. A lovely ball by Sinfield. He must have been hoping
:43:17. > :43:27.it was Donovan Bailey then. They take the tap. You like that, don't
:43:27. > :43:37.
:43:37. > :43:45.#i79 is between him and Hall. Hall closes in, but not soon enough.
:43:45. > :43:54.Scored by Leroy Cudjoe, it is another to stick in your scrapbook.
:43:54. > :44:04.A scintillating tie. But don't do it yet. Phil Bentham is not certain. It
:44:04. > :44:41.
:44:41. > :44:51.is going to go to the video referee. please. A clean take. No problem.
:44:51. > :45:14.
:45:14. > :45:21.Trailing leg is fine. Yes, it drive. the hero of the moment. Great play.
:45:21. > :45:31.He intercepts and than he had to beat the player who dived Ellie on
:45:31. > :45:42.
:45:42. > :45:51.him, Hardaker. That is a fantastic penalty, you would have taken eight
:45:51. > :46:01.to there. Probably would. Plus six. I just thought, settled down and
:46:01. > :46:04.
:46:04. > :46:13.get back into the game. Look at this! That was great stamina from
:46:13. > :46:23.Cudjoe. Yes, a great try. Hardaker had the legs on him and went a bit
:46:23. > :46:49.
:46:49. > :46:55.early, I think. For could joke -- half. They have to keep their
:46:55. > :47:05.composure and do as they have been doing, Huddersfield, and play with

:49:36. > :49:36.
:49:36. > :50:23.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:50:24. > :50:27.you say? They are putting a lot of pressure on so it Huddersfield can
:50:27. > :50:37.keep Leeds off at the try line it will be whether or not they can
:50:37. > :50:46.
:50:46. > :50:56.take this game. Scott Grix has got to look at... Oh, he lost it. That
:50:56. > :50:59.
:50:59. > :51:07.-- Hardaker has only been playing in this position for over a year.
:51:07. > :51:16.It the ball goes over his head, not only that, they have to trudge back.
:51:17. > :51:25.If he takes it on the full, it makes a big difference. It is a
:51:25. > :51:35.dramatic skive. It has been raining today, but the sun is out. -- a
:51:35. > :51:40.
:51:40. > :51:45.handling mistakes today but Huddersfield are joining them in
:51:46. > :51:53.that respect. That is where the coaches must pull their hair out.
:51:53. > :52:03.Just a simple forward pass. Who do you blame? The guy who over runs it
:52:03. > :52:21.
:52:21. > :52:31.or the guy who has passed it? Lunt. That will change the dynamics.
:52:31. > :52:31.

:53:16. > :53:23.A fresher pair of legs for have first time but I think he did

:53:30. > :53:40.- video referee in the truck. He will taught us through his decision.
:53:40. > :53:40.
:53:40. > :54:46.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:54:46. > :54:53.ground. It will be a decision transmitted to the rest of the
:54:53. > :54:59.stadium here. There are a lot of Leeds fans who are rather hoping
:54:59. > :55:09.that it was going to be given. A 20 metre restart and Huddersfield
:55:09. > :55:11.
:55:11. > :55:21.survived. I thought he scored their. They beat -- very good video call

:57:36. > :00:16.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:00:16. > :00:23.willing to take my hat off to that. just the basic stuff. It is a really
:00:23. > :00:27.tough game to call. If the scores stay like this, oh that is a...
:00:27. > :00:35.Collision. Yes, I thought he led with his forearm, Brian, we did
:00:35. > :00:42.react to it. You're allowed to get yo bumper bars up, you're allowed to
:00:42. > :00:50.lead with the forearm. You're allowed to bump somebody. But you
:00:50. > :00:57.don't want to tackle him with your chin. It would help not to. A minute
:00:57. > :01:07.and a half just over of this half remaining. It has been a sparkling
:01:07. > :01:29.
:01:29. > :01:34.first half. And Huddersfield look to defence. Now go left. On they come,
:01:34. > :01:42.a dummy shown. He is going to go the distance, is he? Slides over.
:01:42. > :01:47.Sliding it in. The referee again wants to see this. Or at least offer
:01:47. > :01:57.it up to the video referee to have a look. What about the grounding? Is
:01:57. > :02:01.this a try or no try. A big call this in the context of the match.
:02:01. > :02:07.Tackle three and grounding. Nice and slow. He is in possession of the
:02:07. > :02:11.ball at all times there. There is no change. His hand is under the ball
:02:11. > :02:19.at that stage. It is still under the ball. There is the ball on the
:02:19. > :02:26.ground. Have we got another shot of that? The ball is on the ground.OK,
:02:26. > :02:36.this might be the one. He is in possession of the ball, and have we
:02:36. > :02:40.
:02:40. > :02:44.anything from the touch judge's side, please? OK. He is in
:02:44. > :02:49.possession. This is probably the best one we are going to get. Still
:02:49. > :02:57.in possession. His hand is under the ball at all times, the ball is not
:02:57. > :03:02.on the ground. OK. His hand still is under the ball there at all times. I
:03:03. > :03:10.just want to check the Leeds' players hand, I think it is the one
:03:11. > :03:15.with the tattoo. Nice and slow, please. Is under the ball. He is
:03:15. > :03:20.under the ball. The ball is still not on the ground at that stage. He
:03:20. > :03:26.is under the ball. I can't see the ball on the ground. Have you
:03:26. > :03:31.anything elsewhere you can freeze that? That is a red mark. Have we
:03:31. > :03:41.anything clearer? That is the best one we have got. OK, let's run it
:03:41. > :03:48.
:03:48. > :03:52.through at normal speed, please.I want to look at it normal speed. ,
:03:52. > :04:02.normal speed. Let's look at that again normal speed that will
:04:02. > :04:06.
:04:06. > :04:16.probably tell us the best. OK. He is still in possession. I think he is
:04:16. > :04:18.
:04:18. > :04:27.under the ball. That's no try. It's held up. So it is play the ball 4,
:04:27. > :04:32.no try, play the ball. Well it has gone down well with the Leeds fans.
:04:32. > :04:39.I'm not sure about the Huddersfield fans and we saw the replays and we
:04:39. > :04:47.heard why that try hadn't been given. I think it's a try, Brian?
:04:47. > :04:54.was, I think it is a try. It is a tough decision. He is not too upset,
:04:54. > :04:59.but that is a massive decision in the context of the game. He is not
:04:59. > :05:08.getting, he is not going to get closer to scoring without scoring.
:05:08. > :05:12.great effort by Hardaker, but I thought it was a try. That was the
:05:12. > :05:20.fifth tackle. It is a poor pass and they have lost a lot of ground and
:05:20. > :05:26.lost the man they wanted to pass to. All Brough can do is... Actually he
:05:26. > :05:31.has overhit that and he is throwing his arms up in despair. In the
:05:31. > :05:41.context of the match, that is a huge decision. I felt they needed that
:05:41. > :05:43.
:05:43. > :05:52.six points to maybe have a good position. Now it is still anyone's
:05:53. > :06:01.game. Half time it is Huddersfield 14, Leeds 4. It is awful in the
:06:01. > :06:06.middle. We are getting tepest peppered the -- tough. You have a 12
:06:06. > :06:10.point buffer will that be enough? No, that is why we went for the one
:06:10. > :06:15.point at the end. We are going to need some more points to get through
:06:15. > :06:20.this. Great discipline by the team. Not giving away much. How do you
:06:20. > :06:24.feel about that? It is fantastic. If you want to beat Leeds, that is what
:06:24. > :06:33.you have got to do. If we do that, we stand a chance. Looking forward
:06:33. > :06:38.to the second half. Well we are all looking forward to the second half
:06:39. > :06:45.after that. He talks about the intensity does Eorl Crabtree. Your
:06:45. > :06:51.tweets are coming in, using four words. Hard, relentless, decisions
:06:51. > :06:57.heart. What a pulsating game. What a great advert. Such an exciting game.
:06:57. > :07:02.Stan says, fast, furious finishing, finesse. They will be happy in that
:07:02. > :07:08.Giants dressing room, but that Rhinos dressing room won't have
:07:08. > :07:13.given up hope. There is no better team at clinging on to a match when
:07:13. > :07:20.they have no right to do so. They concede about 15 points a game. So
:07:20. > :07:25.you wouldn't put it past them not to concede another point and so Leeds
:07:25. > :07:31.are bang in the game. We had another one, Dan said, exciting for the
:07:31. > :07:36.neutral. We all been out of our seats. If you war psychologist, they
:07:36. > :07:41.are all positive words and it is a great quality game. Not only the
:07:42. > :07:46.breaks have occurred through poor deferngs it has been -- defence, it
:07:46. > :07:51.has been relentless skill and the speed of the outside backs to
:07:51. > :07:56.utilise the opportunities that have been created has been fantasti. And
:07:56. > :07:59.wasn't that fantastic, that interview with Eorl Crabtree. His
:08:00. > :08:05.being peppered. He did well to talk. He has had a four minute break. I
:08:05. > :08:13.have been in that situation, it is so difficult to articulate yourself
:08:13. > :08:23.and him to do so is fantastic. did well. Given how intense it was.
:08:23. > :08:29.
:08:29. > :08:32.Let's look at some of the stats. Huddersfield 16, Leeds 4. You would
:08:32. > :08:39.think that despite Huddersfield being ahead, we would have seen more
:08:39. > :08:45.action in the half that Huddersfield were defending. One of the Delling
:08:45. > :08:50.stats is the errors. That has kept Huddersfield in the right part of
:08:51. > :08:59.the field. Look amount this, 43% total possession, but they have made
:08:59. > :09:04.over 200 more metres Leeds. So if they don't create errors, this game
:09:04. > :09:07.can flip around. Leeds are bang in this. They can go out and score 20
:09:07. > :09:12.points. Huddersfield have played well and are in the driving seat,
:09:12. > :09:18.but you have that feeling that Leeds are bang in the game. Take us
:09:18. > :09:27.through first dry, scored by Sean Lunt, on loan at the Rhinos last
:09:27. > :09:34.year. They are kicking to the right side to get away from Hall. Eorl
:09:34. > :09:41.Crabtree leaves two players on the ground and now they will have to get
:09:41. > :09:47.up quick to shut down the threat of Robinson. Peacock has got to honour
:09:47. > :09:51.that playing coming through and now he loses his feet. Hardaker decides
:09:51. > :09:58.to go to the left. Now the next defender should go tight. He has got
:09:58. > :10:04.to go tight and Lunt runs more than anyone in Super League. Every game,
:10:05. > :10:10.he scores a similar try to that. But he had to come in and they would
:10:10. > :10:14.have stopped that play. Eorl Crabtree attracts people and
:10:14. > :10:20.disjoints your defence. He is the threat. Eorl Crabtree was
:10:20. > :10:25.instrumental in what we call a mad minute. It was 45 seconds between
:10:25. > :10:32.Eorl being tackled and Leeds going down the other end and scoring.
:10:32. > :10:39.about the tackle. Crabtree is brave, why pass. Did they panic there,
:10:39. > :10:47.Huddersfield? Yes, they oked -- lacked come poessure. But --
:10:47. > :10:52.composure. But they were shocked. But take your hat off to Hardaker.
:10:52. > :10:57.This is good quality teams, they can turn defence into attack so quick.
:10:57. > :11:03.They don't just take the one out run, but explore and try to see if
:11:03. > :11:08.defenders want to overchase to the side. And now you have the speed and
:11:08. > :11:13.Maguire's support king. A great act again. Challenge Cup's all about
:11:13. > :11:19.great acts for your team. But Watkins gets off the ground from the
:11:19. > :11:24.run and we talk about an effort on an effort and they're all courageous
:11:24. > :11:31.efforts. We were talking about the difference in Giants appearing to
:11:31. > :11:35.panic and the composure of the Rhinos at the other. Leeds absorbed
:11:35. > :11:40.the pressure and sprung back into action. And we have highlighted the
:11:41. > :11:46.centre play. Two great centres, Watkins and Cudjoe and Cudjoe's
:11:46. > :11:50.strength and ability to off-load and McGillvary is a handful. A sign of a
:11:50. > :11:56.good team, look at the number of support players. I will stay with
:11:56. > :12:03.the try at the moment, because it is the passing. They don't panic. We
:12:03. > :12:10.talk about as schoolboys, draw and pass. That was a constructive play.
:12:10. > :12:14.They're keen to shift to an edge. And with Huddersfield nay get you up
:12:15. > :12:20.the mid wl the big guys, if they doesn't work, they go to the players
:12:20. > :12:25.on the edge. It is a real job to defend against Huddersfield. But
:12:25. > :12:31.Huddersfield have some work to do if they want to keep Leeds at bay.
:12:31. > :12:38.does Paul Anderson say? He says, you're playing well and play being
:12:38. > :12:42.high intensity, but you can't afford to give away a penalty and give them
:12:42. > :12:47.back-to-back sets. He go back to their kick game and go back f we can
:12:47. > :12:56.make them come out of their half, wave chance of scoring. Then they
:12:56. > :13:01.have worked on Eorl Crabtree and Copczak, but a it is game gets
:13:01. > :13:08.quicker it is the ability to play a short passing game around the ruck
:13:08. > :13:12.and then the support play comes into it. It is a big start of the half.
:13:12. > :13:17.Because Huddersfield will get a lot of confidence if they can defend 15
:13:18. > :13:22.or 20 minutes without conceding. If Leeds come out and score, the
:13:22. > :13:28.dynamic changes. You have been impressed with the Giants defence.
:13:28. > :13:37.And they forced Leeds into an error. They're well organised on the try
:13:38. > :13:44.line. HH offroads the ball and Leroy Cudjoe says -- shows why he is such
:13:44. > :13:49.a great player. What a chase for Ryan Hall. He is the right-winger
:13:49. > :13:55.and ends up on the left. A great chase and the energy and intensity
:13:55. > :14:02.of that trial show what is that half has been about. 14-4 at half time.
:14:02. > :14:10.The guys in commentary, Brian and Jonathan thought hit the was a --
:14:10. > :14:16.thought this was a try. You think he got it right? It is enlightening
:14:16. > :14:23.Steve talking to even. On the flip side I thought he got his hand under
:14:23. > :14:31.that and Hardaker has come up with two massive, well try-saving
:14:31. > :14:38.tackles. You say is that a fry, you said he got his hand under. I don't
:14:38. > :14:48.think it was. Yes the combined age of our eyes here is less than
:14:48. > :14:48.
:14:48. > :29:49.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:29:49. > :29:56.the ball and McShane and Brough having a confrontation. Not a big
:29:56. > :30:03.fan of that, Delaney and Bailey patting him on the head. No. Well
:30:03. > :30:09.the red butt p forum coming up after the game and we will talk about a
:30:09. > :30:19.lot of issues in the game and the proposals for a shake-up in the game
:30:19. > :30:34.
:30:34. > :30:44.McGillvary picks it up. They thought they were offside and I think they
:30:44. > :30:44.
:30:44. > :30:48.were. The referee has given the penalt Huddersfield's way. When you
:30:48. > :30:53.consider what they have done with with the penalty and Brough with the
:30:53. > :30:57.ball to the sideline. We see the pass and Ryan Hall can't gather in
:30:58. > :31:03.from Moon and this is where the Leeds players are offside from the
:31:03. > :31:09.quick play of the ball from McGillvary. Ink the -- I think the
:31:09. > :31:19.difference is Leeds are trying to play more football further out and
:31:19. > :31:22.
:31:22. > :31:27.Huddersfield just use the conditions. And he is making his
:31:27. > :31:33.presence there. A penalty for Huddersfield. Coach Noble says two.
:31:33. > :31:43.Two points here, Brian? Yes, takes them three scores is away.
:31:43. > :31:44.
:31:44. > :31:50.against the wind, definitely go for goal here. A lot of frustration in
:31:50. > :31:55.the Leeds camp. But after the three sets of you know six repeat sets in
:31:55. > :32:05.the Huddersfield half to come away and nick two points will just take
:32:05. > :32:06.
:32:06. > :32:14.the sting out of Leeds' momentum. I sense Leeds have fired up on the
:32:14. > :32:24.aggression stakes. Buchanan and Bailey there. I think they're trying
:32:24. > :32:28.
:32:28. > :32:34.to rattle this team. E Still 16-4 the lead. E14 points the difference.
:32:34. > :32:40.It is now a three score difference. Leeds have to score three tries
:32:40. > :32:50.probably to put themselves in the lead and not cop seed -- concede
:32:50. > :33:11.
:33:11. > :33:16.again. Plenty more to come from this They are lifted, because they know
:33:16. > :33:26.how important it is to keep Huddersfield inside that 20 and put
:33:26. > :33:41.
:33:41. > :33:47.because they can't go wide. It is difficult passing against the wind,
:33:47. > :33:57.long passes. So good support. is the last tackle. They're kicking
:33:57. > :34:13.
:34:13. > :34:19.difference there. Happy birthday doo to that young man, Billy Watts,
:34:19. > :34:28.celebrating his 90th birthday. a great part of our great game.
:34:28. > :34:38.he is looking very well for 90. a terrific cashing term. --
:34:38. > :34:47.
:34:47. > :34:53.field towards Hall. Over his head. Carried away by the wind and there a
:34:53. > :34:58.sense of frustration among these Leeds players. Yes, keep calm, as
:34:58. > :35:08.they say on the coffee cups. But the difference is in the kicking side.
:35:08. > :35:13.We saw Sinfield get in the air quite a lot and now they are low skimmers,
:35:13. > :35:21.trying to establish field position. Broughy for England is the chant
:35:21. > :35:25.from the Huddersfield supporters. The vague Rhys of inter-- vagaries
:35:25. > :35:30.of the international selection means he could play for England or
:35:31. > :35:35.Scotland in the World Cup at the end of the year. I think he is a very
:35:35. > :35:43.talented player, Danny Brough. He has got it all. The kicking game.
:35:43. > :35:53.Takes the pressure. Ferres is claiming there was a Leeds touch
:35:53. > :36:07.
:36:07. > :36:17.there and should have been another an ambitious pass from that
:36:17. > :36:47.
:36:47. > :36:55.at the start of this set. Now the Ferres. Yes he was.Here is the
:36:55. > :37:02.last. Sinfield, up it goes, down it comes. Another kick on. Grix having
:37:02. > :37:07.to hurry back and he will have to deal with this. And he won't get out
:37:07. > :37:12.of the area. It will be a drop out. I think Maguire was offside there.
:37:13. > :37:19.But a drop under the sticks. They have lost their composure a bit,
:37:19. > :37:29.Leeds. This is on the back of a speculator. That is what they need,
:37:29. > :37:42.
:37:42. > :37:52.have a talk about what they require. this wind is a good kick. He kept it
:37:52. > :38:30.
:38:30. > :38:35.without a touch. So back where you are and Moon taking it in. Delaney
:38:35. > :38:40.is taking a gamble to run it in here. Well, what happened there,
:38:40. > :38:45.what happened there? He saw big Hall and you can't criticise him for
:38:45. > :38:51.going for it. It is not the worst place to hand the ball over if you
:38:51. > :38:56.can create pressure. An interesting kicking difference between the
:38:56. > :39:00.teams, Huddersfield in the first half were willing to kick the ball
:39:00. > :39:04.from their own half in the opening three tackles. Leeds are trying to
:39:04. > :39:09.run it before they do kick. That is an interesting thing about the
:39:09. > :39:19.Huddersfield in the first half used the wind. But Leeds yet to have done
:39:19. > :39:19.
:39:19. > :40:03.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:40:03. > :40:08.but a good tackle by Grix. Great play by Burrow. But what a fantastic
:40:08. > :40:18.tackle. Hardaker with a dummy and he will get it. Another set. They have
:40:18. > :40:43.
:40:43. > :40:53.inpenetrable. Burrow can't pass it away. It was knocked on. Is that
:40:53. > :40:59.
:40:59. > :41:08.right? Is that right? Well...He is not arguing, is he? Wardle. Look at
:41:08. > :41:14.this fellas. E Well, here we go again. It was four sets at the start
:41:14. > :41:19.of the half that they survived. And another test for this Huddersfield
:41:19. > :41:29.defence and another test for the the sharpness of Leeds' attack. Can they
:41:29. > :41:40.
:41:40. > :41:45.finally find a way through? Boy, do picked up by Murphy. Leeds are their
:41:45. > :41:50.own worst enemies again. And they will take that every day of the
:41:50. > :41:58.week. A good tackle from Calum Watkins. It is different with the
:41:58. > :42:06.wind behind you to throw the wind passes and get it accurate. So now
:42:06. > :42:14.again relief for Huddersfield Giants. The sec half possession, you
:42:14. > :42:19.can see how much domination Leeds have had, 61% to 39, but the only
:42:19. > :42:27.points have been Brough's penalty so far. It is a testament to
:42:27. > :42:33.Huddersfield' defence. That is six or seven sets already. Why do they
:42:33. > :42:40.throw that pass? They have no possession and they just keep that
:42:40. > :42:50.six. Let's just complete the set. McGuire is looking nonplussed as
:42:50. > :42:59.
:42:59. > :43:07.comes flying at him. And Jones-Buchanan to make the tackle.
:43:07. > :43:13.Oh, my word, Ryan Bailey's shoulder looks solid. Hoorp is Crabtree. --
:43:13. > :43:21.here is Crabtree. Leeds are hanging on by their finger nails and they
:43:21. > :43:24.survive, because it has been knocked on. The third tack is Delaney there.
:43:24. > :43:27.At the moment Huddersfield, when they get opt attack, they just raise
:43:27. > :43:33.the pace of their game and that is the difference. That is the only
:43:33. > :43:40.difference. I think they are coping with the Leeds attack, because
:43:40. > :43:45.they're slightly one-based. I would like to see Watkins and Hall come
:43:45. > :43:54.into the game more. McGuire has had a bit of treatment and is still
:43:54. > :44:04.being looked at. But I think he will be OK. I think a smack on the old
:44:04. > :44:33.
:44:33. > :44:43.side looking to create momentum because Jones-Buchanan has knocked
:44:43. > :45:14.
:45:14. > :45:24.future of the game, do so on are red button forearm. 1 hour of
:45:24. > :46:01.
:46:01. > :46:11.played in this game so 20 minutes Huddersfield... Murphy just tried
:46:11. > :46:11.
:46:11. > :47:01.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:47:01. > :47:10.one last pass. If it had stuck I half, but this is utterly absorbing
:47:10. > :47:20.in the second half. You just feel like if Leeds scored one try, it
:47:20. > :47:43.
:47:43. > :47:53.would lift them. Huddersfield have other here! The touch judge is
:47:53. > :47:53.
:47:53. > :48:03.proving to be very brave! I think there is a problem for Huddersfield.
:48:03. > :48:18.
:48:18. > :48:28.Waddle might see him in the sin bin yellow. He had asked a word with
:48:28. > :48:42.
:48:42. > :48:52.is a discipline that is required to bring home a match at this level.
:48:52. > :49:04.
:49:04. > :49:10.The touch judge is having a word red card. It is a red card for
:49:10. > :49:17.water all. Off for the game. He cannot believe it. He is nonplussed
:49:17. > :49:24.as well. Suddenly, the dynamic of this match switches around because
:49:24. > :49:31.Huddersfield only have 12 men for the rest of the game. This is rugby
:49:31. > :49:36.league and I think that is a shocking decision to send him off.
:49:36. > :49:43.If you are throwing a punch to the head, it is a red card,
:49:43. > :49:48.unfortunately. I know it is rugby league, Brian, but you cannot do it
:49:48. > :49:53.any more. Not at this level and this standard of competition, I
:49:53. > :50:00.agree with that. That is the risk you run. If you do that, you face a
:50:00. > :50:08.red card and that is what has happened. Brian, this is about...
:50:08. > :50:18.They now have to play with 12 men. They had to do it a few weeks ago
:50:18. > :50:18.
:50:18. > :50:58.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:50:58. > :51:08.the game as well when they were there, wasn't there? And that will
:51:08. > :51:09.
:51:09. > :51:17.be a penalty. The Huddersfield fans are baying for blood. What about
:51:17. > :51:25.him at seeing the colour of the card, they say. No, just a penalty.
:51:25. > :51:35.That is not a card. If he just punches him in the body, is it not
:51:35. > :51:53.
:51:53. > :51:57.they saying? The force - meet -- the referee's aware forced to give
:51:57. > :52:05.a red card. I in the context of the game, I don't think the referee
:52:05. > :52:15.wanted to send him off. It has happened now and it will have a big
:52:15. > :52:28.
:52:28. > :52:32.impact. The ball was knocked on. game then fair call. You cannot do
:52:32. > :52:39.it anymore and you know you can't do it anymore and that is the risk
:52:39. > :52:44.you run. Should they beat different standards for different games? We
:52:44. > :52:52.all remember Willie Mason when he punched a player and the argue was
:52:52. > :52:59.it was a Test match share used Sid -- shouldn't send him off. When you
:52:59. > :53:03.have such a passionate and exciting game, a little bit like the
:53:03. > :53:13.Coliseum, sometimes tempers spill over and we have to make allowances
:53:13. > :53:51.
:53:51. > :53:55.and do the job. He it is really exciting, isn't it? The clock is
:53:55. > :54:03.slowly ticking now. Huddersfield defensively have been magnificent
:54:03. > :54:13.so Leeds need to score. There is still an aged to go. There is still
:54:13. > :54:13.
:54:13. > :55:00.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:55:00. > :55:10.time. It is an age for Huddersfield, that didn't come off. He a forward
:55:10. > :55:20.
:55:20. > :55:27.and knock-on. Leeds have been anyway, hadn't he? Some of the
:55:27. > :55:37.tackles that both teams have made. Most of those tackles would have
:55:37. > :55:37.
:55:37. > :55:46.been made in the second half. Crabtree has done mode -- more than
:55:47. > :55:52.most. That is a huge effort from the big man. It is! They have just
:55:53. > :56:02.got to complete their sex now, haven't they? Do the hard yards and
:56:03. > :56:31.
:56:31. > :56:36.anything else is a bonus for them. Huddersfield. Leeds are gathering
:56:36. > :56:44.in quickly to make sure the referee stopped the clock. It isn't in
:56:44. > :56:49.their favour at the moment and they need to keep hold of every second.
:56:49. > :56:55.One try back for Leeds could spark a real revival. Just talking about
:56:55. > :57:05.the tackles Huddersfield have had to get through today as a team, it
:57:05. > :57:05.
:57:05. > :58:10.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds
:58:10. > :58:19.will take its toll in the final 10 confirmed by the referee and there
:58:19. > :58:29.is time and now there is hope in this go -- game. They have done so
:58:29. > :59:00.
:59:00. > :59:10.the pressure. Ablett stayed alive Super League to kick your goals.
:59:10. > :59:16.
:59:16. > :59:24.But he has put it wide. He has not because the wind is swelling. You
:59:24. > :59:30.can try and aim it but it is very difficult. He has scored in the
:59:30. > :59:40.last 32 consecutive games, Sinfield, and today could be the day that he
:59:40. > :00:11.
:00:11. > :00:18.nasty-looking injury. He will be remaining. And ten points the
:00:18. > :00:28.difference. Leeds have to score twice. Still two tries. And kick two
:00:28. > :00:36.
:00:36. > :00:46.goals. That is to put themselves in but it is taken by Robinson and
:00:46. > :00:47.
:00:47. > :00:53.Robinson happy just to have the ball in his hands. A high shot.E Slapped
:00:53. > :01:01.him around the chops really. Yes, but no intent. I think we can get
:01:01. > :01:11.more information on Delaney. could be a nasty one, it is a
:01:11. > :01:23.
:01:23. > :01:28.suspected dislocatedshoulder. got the injury. That is nasty.
:01:28. > :01:38.Couldn't protect himself when he hit the ground. Another try for
:01:38. > :02:05.
:02:06. > :02:13.Huddersfield might just about kill Crabtree with a little soft shoe
:02:13. > :02:20.shuffle, but then hurls himself forward, but is pinned back by the
:02:20. > :02:30.Leeds defenders. Crabtree has got to be up for man of the match with the
:02:30. > :02:38.
:02:38. > :02:48.far as he can. It is encouraging from an England point of view, Eorl
:02:48. > :02:49.
:02:49. > :02:56.Crabtree the work he has put in. We know our, I say our pack, apologise,
:02:56. > :03:01.but the England back is going to be decent. Your pack! I think England
:03:01. > :03:11.World Cup is looking good. I think they have lacked quality in the
:03:11. > :03:25.
:03:25. > :03:30.outside backs in the recent years. ball. But they're losing ground.
:03:30. > :03:38.They have given themselves an opportunity. It is a great pass to
:03:38. > :03:43.Ablett. He is rung wide and Watkins runs into the chest of Murphy.
:03:43. > :03:53.Thrilling stuff. Great football. They have got to chance their arm,
:03:53. > :03:58.
:03:58. > :04:01.big call. The touch judge doesn't give it. Bailey comes back from an
:04:01. > :04:08.offside position. But the referee will have a word with his touch
:04:08. > :04:13.judge will he? It is a big call, this. Checking the restart. The
:04:13. > :04:23.video ref will have a look at this. I don't think he will hear from
:04:23. > :04:24.
:04:24. > :04:31.Steve Afghanistanson. -- Ganson. The question is whether he knocked on.
:04:32. > :04:41.That was as he was trying to regather that ball. He tries to
:04:42. > :04:42.
:04:42. > :04:46.off-load. A knock on. That is a knock on. Yes, knock on confirmed.
:04:46. > :04:56.So seven minutes left to play. Ten points the difference. Have Leeds
:04:56. > :05:09.
:05:09. > :05:16.got it in there? Or can Huddersfield the extra man he was got to bring
:05:16. > :05:26.Hardaker into the game. He is lying anyoning quick. -- lightning quick.
:05:26. > :05:36.
:05:36. > :05:42.Leeds having to take one or two more Huddersfield's defence have been
:05:42. > :05:47.tested so many times and come up trumps. But it is left behind and
:05:47. > :05:51.knocked on. Huddersfield survive again and for all the glamour and
:05:51. > :05:56.the glitzy stuff in the first half, it is the grit of what has gone on
:05:56. > :06:02.on that touchline that has made the difference. It has been a great
:06:02. > :06:08.defensive effort up to now. I think that little mistakes, little
:06:08. > :06:16.handling errors. How many time ts have we -- times have we seen Rob
:06:16. > :06:26.Burrows change a game? I think they have defended, Burrows and McGuire
:06:26. > :06:49.
:06:49. > :06:56.so well. They have kept the runners Just stick, don't twist. Five
:06:56. > :07:06.minutes left to play. Inside the 40 ooh Brough lets fly with that.
:07:06. > :07:11.
:07:11. > :07:16.across. He is brushed off. Copczak hangs on and Hardaker takes the
:07:16. > :07:24.tackle. But he has set something up here for Leeds. There is still some
:07:24. > :07:32.time. Knocked down by a Huddersfield player. That was a very important
:07:32. > :07:42.tackle by Cudjoe. A bit of a dog-leg chase. But what a tackle. Hardaker
:07:42. > :07:59.
:07:59. > :08:09.was away. Just got a hand on that performed heroics in that semi final
:08:09. > :08:30.
:08:30. > :08:35.can see the frustration on Jamie Jones-Buchanan. It has one -- been
:08:35. > :08:40.one of days where Leeds will look at the video and they will be kicking
:08:40. > :08:50.themselves. They want to run flat, but you have got to hold your run a
:08:50. > :08:53.
:08:53. > :09:01.bit. Frustration there. Well the press have chosen the man of the
:09:01. > :09:05.match and their vote has gone to Leroy Cudjoe. He has been an
:09:05. > :09:13.eye-catching preps, but I suspect you may have gone for someone else.
:09:13. > :09:21.He has had a tremendous game, but I think Crabtree has been immense.
:09:21. > :09:25.Brough has been influential as well. I think with respect to Leroy Cudjoe
:09:25. > :09:34.you get the scores and the intercepts, it changed the balance
:09:34. > :09:39.of the game. No complaints really on any of those games -- names. But it
:09:39. > :09:49.has been Huddersfield's day and it looks like finishing as
:09:49. > :10:00.
:10:00. > :10:06.Huddersfield's day, with time Huddersfield chase. Late in the day
:10:06. > :10:11.and only 12 of them on the field, but they're up there in numbers.
:10:11. > :10:18.Leeds know that this will not be their year and Cudjoe, the man of
:10:18. > :10:24.the match, will finish it off in style for Huddersfield! The
:10:24. > :10:31.sneakiest, the cutest of interceptions! And there is no doubt
:10:31. > :10:39.now, Huddersfield are marching on, Leeds are marching out. And a giant
:10:39. > :10:44.stride towards a Wembley final, helped by Leroy Cudjoe. Yeah, he did
:10:44. > :10:50.it in the first half, he just sniffed out an intercept exactly the
:10:51. > :10:58.same. Just pick-pocketed the Leeds attack. Just watch, Watkins is
:10:58. > :11:03.through. He takes the chance. Total joy. Leeds have to take that chance
:11:03. > :11:09.as well. Watkins had the opportunity to go the length of the field and
:11:09. > :11:18.Cudjoe picked his pocket and reinforced his man of the match
:11:18. > :11:23.performance. Well he is a Huddersfield had -- lad, Leroy
:11:23. > :11:28.Cudjoe and he is tip to be involved in the England team. The first three
:11:28. > :11:34.sets of six in the first half, tremendous defensive effort by
:11:34. > :11:39.Huddersfield. An early try would have given momentum to Leeds. But a
:11:39. > :11:46.fantastic defensive effort kept them out and they have deserved their
:11:46. > :11:54.win. Well Paul andson -- Anderson knows this is a massive win, not
:11:54. > :12:03.just in terms of taking his team through to the next round, but as it
:12:03. > :12:10.is his first year as a head coach, this scalp does prove the pedigree.
:12:10. > :12:20.24-8 now. Huddersfield lead. And that is the latest little gallop to
:12:20. > :12:30.
:12:30. > :12:35.plays, but they know it is done now. It is a tremendous game. Great
:12:35. > :12:41.attacking skills in the first half and a gritty defensive performance.
:12:41. > :12:51.Very physical. A tremendous game of Rugby League. But Huddersfield
:12:51. > :12:56.
:12:56. > :13:01.deserve this win. Slow to it feet. out in numbers, I think it has been
:13:01. > :13:06.their biggest crowd of the season and the club deserves credit for way
:13:06. > :13:12.they have pushed the game and the noise that is generated here when
:13:13. > :13:19.they hear the final whistle. Confirmation that Paul Anderson's
:13:19. > :13:28.Huddersfield have beaten the Leeds Rhinos in a big, big Challenge Cup
:13:28. > :13:33.tie. 24-8. The chairman, the man who has backed this club, delighted I am
:13:33. > :13:41.sure. Eorl Crabtree has put in such a big effort and the Huddersfield
:13:41. > :13:48.Giants go through, beating Leeds 24-8. Well what a sensational game
:13:48. > :13:54.of Rugby League. We have had a tweet from Ian, I'm doing press ups to get
:13:55. > :13:59.a pair of arms and play rugby. That was electric. The big moment was 44
:13:59. > :14:07.minutes into the game. Four minutes after half time, the Huddersfield
:14:07. > :14:17.defended three sets of six on their line and didn't let Leeds score.
:14:17. > :14:38.
:14:38. > :14:48.fluid, especially down the try-line. I think all on at -- honest
:14:48. > :14:50.
:14:50. > :14:56.defensively in the second half than What does this mean to the club?
:14:56. > :15:00.The crowd has turned out in force today. For us as a club, we are
