RF: "Beaten in the 1976 final by St Helens, Widnes were tipped to make amends in their third straight final appearance.

"But they fell short again as Leeds, led by skipper David Ward, hit back from a 7-5 half-time deficit to triumph.

"Steve Pitchford picked up the Lance Todd Trophy for Leeds, who retained the trophy 12 months later by beating St Helens 14-12."
