Quote Bulliac="Bulliac"Wasn't there a players strike around this period and some games didn't get played? I think the answer might revolve around this (though, of course, it may not!!

More or less correct; Widnes finished top with 50 points from 30 games, while Northern finished second on 44 points from 29. Saints were third on 45 points from 30 games. Northern’s last away league game of the season was cancelled due to a Featherstone Rovers player’s strike, and the outstanding league positions were determined by percentages.
