Defending champions Leeds won a record sixth Super League grand final, beating Warrington 26-18 at Old Trafford.
Warrington, playing in their first grand final, came up against a Leeds side in their eighth title decider and the experience of the likes of Leeds captain Kevin Sinfield proved too much.
Though Warrington went ahead early in the second half, Sinfield's personal tally of 14 points proved vital as Ryan Hall, Carl Ablett and Ben Jones-Bishop all scored tries for Leeds.
Warrington manager Tony Smith, who guided Leeds to two Super League titles in his tenure there, would have been the first man ever to coach two different teams to the ultimate prize in Super League.
