Cheers :)
Damn, I must have been a bit tired coding that up lol
Here's my working code (incase anyone else is as stupid as me):
<form method="POST" action="/accounts/login/">
<label style="font-weight:bold;">Login:</label>
<label for="login_username">Username: </label>
<input id="id_login_username" name="login_username" type="text"
value="{{ username }}" />
<label for="login_password">Password:</label>
<input id="id_login_password" name="login_password" type="password" /
>
<input type="submit" value="login" />
</form>
