Leeds Rhinos coach Brian McDermott has insisted that he is "immensely proud" of his players, despite Sunday's defeat to Wigan Warriors in the Super League.
The defending champions were beaten for the fourth time this season as they were edged out 20-16 against the league leaders at the Etihad Stadium.
"I'm immensely proud to be involved with this group," McDermott told Sky Sports News. "I thought we had a good number of harsh calls and, to be still in the contest, everybody should be proud."
Leeds return to Super League action on Friday when they travel to the KC Stadium to face Hull FC.
