You seem to be either shifting the goalposts because you are now aware of your error, or you are completely innumerate.


He was incorrect, your actual over-estimate was 67%.

To which you replied:

Which was even further from the truth. Yes 6 years is 40% of 15 years but that's neither here nor there, it doesn't change the fact that your figure was 67% larger than the true value. Just man up and accept that you are wrong.

When was the last season that Castleford and Wakefield averaged >10k a game during a season? has it ever actually happened? We need to be realistic about what is possible

The Wigan production line, as good as it is, cant be endless. There has to come a point when they feel the effects of all these departures. Tomkins,S will be the interesting one to replace.

Another going to the NRL, they are not even creaming the crop anymore m.skysports.com/article/rugbyleague//8681209

The success of the likes of Ellis, Graham and Burgess (plus the relative changes in the salary cap) are making NRL sides look towards SL for forwards. They would have gone for them previously had the cap been in their favour in the past.

There's no sign at all of NRL clubs looking to SL for backs. Even Tomkins would be seen as a huge gamble. If and when someone like Tomkins goes to the NRL and is a big success, other NRL clubs would undoubtedly follow.

Its exactly the same reason why SL clubs are still hunting around NRL reserve grades for players.
