Leigh is a small town. We don't have much here and we're often joked about as being a bus stop on the way to Wigan. Well, look at us now. We're on the map 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations Leigh Leopard 🐆 for this historical grand final victory. This is really unbelievable it is like a fairy tale story.. Love from all of us here in PNG FANS. 🇵🇬🇵🇬❤💛🖤💯
@Ze_Moose Rugby League Challenge Cup is an annual knockout competition in UK. Leigh last won in 1971 - until Saturday’s match when they beat Hull Kingston Rovers in the final. 👏🏻LEIGH, Rugby League Challenge Cup winners 2023.🏆
Best day of my life being a Leigh lad cant tell you how emotional i and many others were, unbelievable scenes in and around the ground, weve done it simply amazing . ❤❤
Absolutely brilliant game. But some things are more important than sport and even winning the cup for first time in 52 years. Today 2 Hull fans woke up excited to watch their team but unfortunately they lost their lives traveling. My condolences to the friends and family. Everyone was so upset hearing about it and realising that was why the M1 was closed. Hull fans were class n showed Leigh respect. Tomorrow we celebrate our win.
Sad indeed! I've always found KR fans to be some of the most vocal, passionate, yet respectful fans in the game. Enjoyed many a pint and pre-game natter with these good people. More than I can say about their cross-city rivals!
WoW amazing 🎉 what a story 🎉 since last year and entering the super league to come this far. This is definitely a super team. 🎉Congratulations Leigh Leopards. 🎉
YOU BEAUTY !!!!! Very nervy final few minutes of golden point. Huge congrats to Leigh. Hull KR have every reason to be proud - they gave everything & took part in a classic
I just Googled "What do leopards do"? They are nocturnal animals and do most of their hunting at night. Their large eyes and dilated pupils allow them to see well in dark conditions. Leopards are incredibly athletic and known for their climbing ability. They often carry food into trees to avoid losing it to scavengers like lions and hyenas. They also win Challenge Cup Finals.
Well done Leigh Leopards! As a Papua New Guinean, I'm very proud of the important roles our PNG Kumuls Coach Adrian Lam and PNG Kumuls players Lachlan Lam and Edwin Ipape played in winning the Challenge Cup. My greatest gratitude and appreciation to the Leigh Leopards community for giving us PNG the opportunity to show case what we got
Sorry there's a lower but that final rates one of the best I've seen in 52 years both teams gave there 100% plus commiserations to Hull kr and congrats to leigh who have had the best season ever 💯👍👏👏👏🍺🍺🍺
Thank you Leigh Leopards for giving our two PNG Kumuls boys (Laclan & Edwin) a second chance in their rugby league careers. They've certainly gone from second choice players to overnight superstars. Super proud of coach Adrian Lam also for guiding the team this far and getting that prestigious challenge cup trophy, what a fairytale ride it has been. To the people and supporters of Leigh, just know that you have a big following halfway around the world from a little island nation called Papua New Guinea ❤🖤💛
Before this season started the so called experts had leigh 2nd favorites to go down and hull KR 3rd favourites to go down. Now look at us both playing in the greatest challange cup final.ever. I'm KR but congratulations leigh. Great game
@@adam_25391 of my reasons also an I can't stand Mikey Lewis jumped up little turd , I also think the way Leigh have all season they fully deserved that challenge cup
Yeah the story goes... Get promoted to Super League, sack all of your players, get a massive credit card and buy 11 new players, win the challenge cup final. Cracking story.
Shorrocks got red for less in the semi final (and the only reason Hull KR were even at Wembley in the first place) than the complete grub elbowing the leigh player in the face. Great that leigh won, by far the more deserving team both in terms of playing style and lack of grubbery.
Well done Leigh from a Robin's fan and a big love you from the referee and other match officials! Viral video of Lams try shows he dropped it plain for all to see. It was written in the RL God's handbook you'd win any old how but yes... well done. Great celebrations btw on an other video 😂
Now that's a grandfinal. It had everything. Congratulations to the Leigh Leopards. Love from PNG.
nota grandfinal, a challenge cup final

That describes the Leigh locals better than a real Leopard 😂

Does it say "they get hammered by Wigan" by any chance?
Congratulations from PNG guys! Much love!
Well played Leigh and HKR! Fantastic final!

PNG has been with Leigh Leopards all the way from the start.
Very well done.
Wabag Enga Province
Fair play Leigh. Very refreshing winners.
Best final I've ever seen. Brilliant both sides. Well done leigh
That game brought everything you could wish for in a final ,neither team deserved to lose its a cruel cruel game for sure
What a game we'll done leigh now make it to old Trafford
Fantastic achievement by Leigh. Congratulations to all.
Massive congratulations from PNG
Dreams Do Come True... "crazy crazy dreams" Congratulations from Popondetta, PNG ❤🎉
Why commentators surprised about the Sinbin? He went in mate and elbowed to the face. Are they blind?
Heavily biased commentary in favour of hull throughout
Most biased commentary ever
Was never a sin bin . Reynolds acting up for the pen . If that's a sin bin what's Reynolds attempted headbutt?? Leigh got away with murder
@@pituophisart6916hull didn’t play today. Hull kr did
@@knaggsman so in your alternative reality, hull kr are not from hull lulz
Congradulations to my Kumuls

Wow!! What a Epic Match.... Congratulations Leigh leopards...
Big shout out to Ipape and Lam...
Full support from PNG🇵🇬🇵🇬🇵🇬
Hahaha the commentators calling a penalty given for a elbow to the head "pathetic" 😂😂
Clearly was tho
Really loved that game as a neutral.I didn't mind who won,I just wanted a good game and I certainly got one.
Both sets of teams coaches etc work so godam hard to get there I truly feel so bad for Hull kr and there amazing supporters (Neil) warrington wolves👍💯
As a Wigan fan am glad Leigh won
Cos deep down you prefer lobby's to a pie, go on ... Admit it!!!
Same, I didn't want KR winning it, especially with the way their fans were after the Semi
@@mudhutter8982 haha NO mate tha can't beat a pie 🤣
@@adam_25391 of my reasons also an I can't stand Mikey Lewis jumped up little turd , I also think the way Leigh have all season they fully deserved that challenge cup
Very pleased for Leigh. A new power is rising…
Such a fairytale finish. Well done Leigh
Mr beaumont is a man of his word 🖤💛
9:45 the moment lam sent the leigh fans wild to create history
Nice win boys

@@user-fk9mo2ld6w it’s beautiful 🤩
@@user-fk9mo2ld6w jealous drink water
An 11 minute video with 20 minutes coverage of the Reynolds penalty 😵💫
Being from other side of Hull, that was very pleasing. Well done Leigh a well deserved win.
No team 4 years ago to winning the challenge cup, wow!! Something i never thought I'd ever ever witness
Congratulations leigh amazing achievement 🎉 fantasitc year coming from a wiganer😂 enjoy
You've got to believe it. It's PNG 🇵🇬🇵🇬🇵🇬 Black Power ..Lam the PNG Magician... Congratulations the mighty Leopards🎉🎉❤❤❤❤🎉🎉
You can really tell the skill gap between super league and the NRL it's crazy
You’re right the nrl final was a terrible defensive game where as this was outstanding. Nrl got a lot to learn
What an entertaining match! Well deserved Leigh.
Next PNG Kumul coach to Adrian Lam❤🇵🇬🇵🇬
I like this games,, ole malosi le loto e Toa ua fa'amalo le fai,,,ua mafai,,love love ,, GB you all,

Absolutely spot on pal, and those commies are fuckin useless.
They actually cut the clip of lam dropping the ball, wow 😂
They also cut out the headbutt by Reynolds and opacic’s denied penalty try. Kendall played well for Leigh today
Salty
@@knaggsmancome off it 😂😂 pathetic comment
Forget about everything he paid it with the golden point field goal.
@@knaggsman someone is a sore loser 😂😂 long drive home?? Few weeks n you get another pasting from Leopards so today was a good practice run for ya's.
Great to see different teams in the final but what ghastly kits they wore.
HA HA i know ... I wish HKR would revert back to white with red hoop .. they are robins afterall... But Leigh.. dear oh dear.. ha ha
First Leigh try was obviously a knock on, you can tell, he doesnt ground it, who agrees(rovers fan)
Lam dropped that ball
but picked it up rofl
Fantastic ❤
Perfectly good tackle he committed to the legs like wtf you can't even tackle someone these days it's getting pathetic
Congratulations 🎊 🇵🇬🐆🐆
Unbelievable , stuff of dreams
WELL DONE LEIGH 🤍❤️🤍❤️
Was it a late tackle by Minchella on Reynolds, I haven’t seen it enough times.
So good...
exceptionnel
I luv💗 Rugba League
Leigh
Little leigh. Congratulations
Leopards
good game, great atmosphere but poor refereeing and first leigh try was very questionable
2:38 to 2:48 Missed tackle by the Hull KR Fullback, he was stood in the wrong place and literally watched O’Donnell run straight past him.
Larim kumul fly
awesome 🎉
Blind commentator didn't see the elbow..
Welsh commentator couldn’t have been more biased against Leigh, did it all game
Exactly the same in the semi final, clear and obvious bias
Jonathan Edwards yea he is a prat
@@garybenson2385 You mean Jonathan Davies, Jonathan Edwards was an Olympic triple jump champion. But yeah, Davies can be a prat.
What else would you expect from the biased fbbc.
That was a perfect copybook tackle but not many players these days would tackle like that because it is all about the wrestle
Lachlan lamb is one of the finest I've ever seen
Wow
Comon you Robins!
Was there any play in this match?
Hello, Humans
Appreciate everything you have. Never take anything for granted. In the blink of an eye, everything could be gone.
TERRANCE OUT
Well done Leigh from a Robin's fan and a big love you from the referee and other match officials! Viral video of Lams try shows he dropped it plain for all to see. It was written in the RL God's handbook you'd win any old how but yes... well done. Great celebrations btw on an other video 😂
Brilliant. Great game! Bulls fan
