Quote ="Super Alf Macklin"
So its a worsened Wigan team that are in the mix for a treble? They'll be there at the business end, injuries have blighted their season, but only in terms of style, not results. Leeds have to accept that their era ended, as they all do at sometime or other. Your point about teams improving and worsening is not really proving much, the same can be said for every campaign, just different teams carrying the baton this year, which doesn't mean the competition standard has worsened, just the likes of Leeds.'"
The standard has been decreasing for years, and I for one blame the cap, it has just held everyone back to the level of the lesser teams
For example anyone wishing to be the best prop in the league would, without the cap, be competing to be better than Graham or Burgess
The game between you and hull was the worst top of the table clash I have ever seen, the fact that 2 teams who are certainly in the top 4 teams in our league produced a game with 40 knock ons is pretty disgraceful in a professional league
Its got nothing to do with Leeds, the standard is bad but we are worse
