Quote: puroresu_boy "It's not great.
It's funny as the NRL is being questioned due to the bottom 8 sides not competing but those bottom 8 sides are way ahead of SL.
The top NRL sides are playing a different sport to what we see in super league. The standard has dropped massively and year on year seems to get worse.
I've never not watched so many games in a season but i get my fix watching NRL and watching SL after is a difficult watch.
I'm really not sure how the standard can get better when the days of signing top players in from Australia are over and anyone decent on this side of the world coming through will be snapped up quickly by an NRL club.'"
Agree with this! Couldn't see any ESL team making the 8 in the NRL at the moment. We'll continue to pick up their "bad boys" and as soon as they get a MOS nomination the NRL will call them back. It is what it is! Really looking forward to the Play-offs which start tomorrow. Would love a Parra v Panthers Grand Final!
