| Quote snowdog="snowdog"there have been no classic super league games this season because of the top 8 play off system.it has watered down the competetiveness of super league.as a wigan poster stated earlier in the thread,they have had average seasons but have stepped up to the mark at the play off stage.
the super league season is just a long warm up to the play offs.for that reason i am not happy with sl at the moment.bring back the top 5'"
Totally agree... I would go far as to say that this is probably one of the worst superleague seasons fo games with intensity.
Games are a lot closer now because the rules and the way the game is reffed, its down to 5 wrestle tackles and then a kick.

| The standards now are clearly better than what they were in the early years of summer rugby. We don't get the amount of 40-30 tryfests that we seemed to get and this season they hasn't been many one sided games. Whilst the Huddersfield-Castleford game wasn't the greatest game by any means it was a tense affair which was only put beyond doubt by Chases drop goal at the end. I'll rather have a low scoring battle over a high scoring tryfest any day.

You're wrong, the games are more competitive these days, but at the expense of quality, the standard of rugby these days is definately worse than it was 5 years ago. Some people could argue that the salary cap is working.

| Quote Bilko="Bilko"Maybe I would say it as a Wigan fan but I think the quality in the league is dire and I think this is reflected by the standard of the national team.
Wigan have been average at best for the last two seasons in my view but yet FACT IS at the end of the play offs we have been nearest behind Saints and Leeds at winning the Grand Final. That says it all to me - if I think we have been average what does that make the rest of the league?
We still have far too many overseas players, most of which I think offer nothing bar the exceptions of rare gems like Michael Dobson and Matt Gidley and I agree with the post by "Judderman". I too cannot remember a classic game from this season that I've seen on Sky.
Maybe it's just me but the league seems to have gone more power and less skill and this does not make for as entertaining a game as say 5/6 years ago.
Of course Hull KR fans will think different, its a generation since they were top of the table but for me compared to 5/6 years a go the league the quality is not the same.'" Check which teams fans are happy with it fella it aint just us

I’d rather watch the Rhinos team of five years ago than this one.
Leeds Rhinos 2004 was without the best attacking rugby [usuper league[/u has ever witness.

| So in conclusion Leeds (The 1 of the current big 2 too be spluttering with a possbility to not be 1st or 2nd), FC (Awful this year even though their fans think they should get/deserve more  ) and Wigan (Think they are gods gift but find themselves outside the playoffs AGAIN  ) fans dont like it but almost everybody else does.
Go figure
