Leeds boss Brian McClennan welcomes home comforts

Leeds coach Brian McClennan
McClennan is looking for this third consecutive Grand Final win

Leeds Rhinos head coach Brian McClennan says his side have a huge advantage by facing Wigan Warriors at home in the Super League play-off semi-final.

The two sides meet at Headingley just a fortnight after Leeds' epic 27-26 win at Wigan in their first play-off match.

McClennan told BBC Radio Leeds: "We love it here, our supporters are outstanding and we're forever grateful for the support we get.

"I hope they turn up in big numbers and really support us."

McClennan, who is looking for his third consecutive Grand Final victory, added: "It's just such a big opportunity.

"We're playing against the most consistent team in 2010 and the opportunity to go to old Trafford four times in a row is a decent carrot isn't it?

"We'd love to do well and we'd love our supporters to get involved here and help us along the way."
