Quote ="MrsChrisBridge"His point is that the Super League trophy is probably the hardest trophy to win as you don't just need 3/4 good games to win it, you need a whole season of consistent good games. The play off games takes the edge off the winning the league leaders shield unfortunately. The name Champions can be awarded to any winning team so taking nothing away from the GF winners but IMO there needs to be a bit more recognition towards the league leaders,no matter who wins it.'"
The word "CHAMPIONS" is given to the team who win the GF.
I think there's a bit of sour grapes because there team didn't get there, and for a wonderful season, only have the LLS to show for it
Look at the ARL , the NZ Warriors finished 6th, if they win it, why can't they be classed as CHAMPIONS??
