Match detailsThe match was played in wintry conditions on Friday evening, 29 February, four rounds into the 2008 Super League competition and one week before the start of NRL season 2008. 33,204 spectators turned out at Elland Road, in Leeds for a hard-fought, low-scoring match in which each side scored a try apiece, with Leeds ultimately coming out winners, due largely to the kicking of Kevin Sinfield. The win meant the English champions side defeated their Australian counterparts for the fifth consecutive year. Many experts blamed the result happened due to Melbourne Storm's loss of many key players which were: Cameron Smith (Captain, Hooker, Australian Test Player), Greg Inglis (Five-Eighth/Centre, Australian Test Player), Matt King (Centre/Wing, Australian Test Player), Ben Cross (Prop, State of Origin NSW Player) and Michael Crocker (Second-row Australian Test Player) {{rugbyleaguebox |bg = #eeeeee | date = 29 February 2008 team1 = Leeds Rhinos {{leagueicon|Leeds Rhinos|16}} | score = 11 – 4 | report = Report | team2 = {{leagueicon|Melbourne|16}} Melbourne Storm | points1 = Tries: points2 = Tries: stadium = Elland Road, Leeds | attendance = 33,204 | referee= Ashley Klein {{flagicon|AUS}} | manofmatch = Kevin Sinfield {{leagueicon|Leeds Rhinos|16}} | }} See alsoWorld Club ChallengeReferences1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12212_5690668,00.html |title=Quins to warm up Storm |date=12 November 2009 |publisher=Sky Sports |accessdate=9 December 2009 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100107075005/http://www.skysports.com/story/0%2C19528%2C12212_5690668%2C00.html |archivedate=7 January 2010 |deadurl=no |df= }} External links
