Got to be an all time low, surely. Watching Leeds v Cas is painful, SO many mistakes and just seen the first points after 51 minutes. So poor…..

@michaelward@genserver.social on Mastodon:



In terms of execution, that was the worst game of professional Rugby League I have ever seen. Shocking.

Very poor in terms of entertainment until the very end, but only because it remained close.

The standard is woeful I agree. But when so called big clubs like ours(wire)and Hull are currently churning out such abject performances what do you expect?

He wouldn’t know. He supports Leigh

But to comment on your post, this is the reason why sky want out. It’s an embarrassing product for people to watch unless St Helens are playing

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG



Probably the worst standard of RL for quite a while, lots of clubs suffering from injuries and bans means a significant amount of top players on the sidelines.

Beginning of the season wasn’t a good look either, a below form Leeds was on SKY mostly in the first 2 months then similar with Wire.

Back end of the season a lot better with Wigoons and Salford catching the eye with an attacking style.

I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011. Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony. I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar. Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way. A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.:cartoons/WB17.gif



Watched the Leeds/Cas game after getting back home from our game against rovers.
As bad as Leeds and Cas were (and I agree the standard for an alleged top-tier game was abysmal), both sides would have put 50 points on Fc yesterday.
Unless you were at the KC stadium yesterday, it is difficult to describe just how shockingly bad Fc were.
The only reason rovers didn't go past the 50/60 point mark yesterday was due to conserving energy in the second half as they only had a 3-man bench, with no real need to chase a game that they were in no danger of losing.

Being one of the worst teams in the lowest standard league that I can remember is doubly embarrassing!

Been very happy watching the Championship this season, it's reinvigorated my love of RL, it's only the clear mismatches when a part-time side meets a side that is full-time/almost full-time that spoil it. Although I saw Leigh comfortably beat London today, I can safely say they're unlikely to do anything to improve the bottom half of SL unless they're planning to sign 8 to 10 SL standard players in the off season.

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.
