Only in RL do you get the crazy idea winning four games in a row (one at home, two away and the final for Leeds) is an "achievement" worthy of the championship and that is before you even consider they lost 11 games in the regular season.
Quote They only even started awarding a shield from 2003. When Wigan topped the league under Frank Endacott in 2000 they weren't awarded anything apart from losers medals after losing to Saints, which I think was a shame because that was a terrific side with IMO the best back line ever seen in SL (although it was lightweight on the bench).'"
The RFL went out of their way to devalue the league in order to get the GF concept off the ground. A move with Nigel Wood written all over it. Why they decided to start awarding the shield again I don't really know if the league is so worthless. There is some prize money now as well I believe. |

But would it be fair for a team of bottlers like Warrington who can't win on the big occasion to claim themselves as "Champions" last season?
Surely part of being the best means that when it counts you can stand up and take on your rivals in the pressure games and come out on top rather than how much you can annihilate London and Cas? |

Blackpool finished 6th and got promoted to the Prem. Isn't that the same as Leeds finishing 5th and winning it.
Pretty similar imo. |

But bringing in Video reviews etc into Football would break up the "fluidity" of the game wouldn't it?
Surely this would reduce the magic of the game and if there weren't any contencious decisions then what would they all talk about!!!

His contempt for this country is so obvious it isn't even funny. In the past when we suffered he didn't care the first time we actually benefit and he's up in arms.
Countries get away with limp fines and slapped wrists for crowd violence and racism, if that was us it would be heavy sanctions and massive fines.
Don't you just love how much people hate this country. |

He's actually called for it to be introduced today. What a surprise.
By the way, you definitely do not get a medal for winning the League Leaders Shield. |

Sorry but this post deserved it in mid June.

2 of the 3 biggest comps in RU have the team finishing top become champions. Its only the World Cup that doesn't but thats because of the format. |
