I hope that one day, if we're not involved, the team win that finish 8th go on to win the Grand Final. It'll make a mockery of the whole competition if a team who win 13 games in the season lift the trophy at the expense of a team who have won 22.

No doubt Sky will lap it up.

In Australia Canterbury Bulldogs won it from 6th one year, back when they had Brett Dallas, Simon Gillies, Darren Britt and those guys. They knocked out 7th placed St George, 3rd placed Canberra and 2nd placed Brisbane in the playoffs then beat 1st placed Manly (coached by Bobby Fulton) in the final.

From what I remember the press didn't whinge about it being a mockery, the Bulldogs got a lot of credit for winning one game after another against the odds. They dominated Manly in the GF.

not as devistated as you when you got bums well and truely slapped by us the other week...

love this thread!!!



Congrats on winning the shield wire and for what its worth I was made up when we won it last year and do think that the team who's better throughout the season and wins more games should win the league but sadly that's nit the rules anymore.

no one is saying it isnt... we're just saying we have won the league... which we obviously have.

If you mean '95 then the regular season wasn't as we would have one over here. 20 teams playing 22 games each. I'm sure in the scenario I mentioned, the English press wouldn't say anything either, but they have their own agenda.

Congratulations on winning the league leaders shield. Well deserved with the fantastic rugby that you have played all year and also having the best defence means that you were the best team in the regular rounds.

I have read this thread and for all those who insist that Warrington have won the league

For the past 12 years which team has been crowned the Super League champions, the team that finished first or the Grand Final winners?

For the past 12 years which team has been presented with the Super League trophy in recognition of being Super League champions, the team that finished first or the Grand Final winners?

Which team, as a reward of having the title of Super League champions, then goes on to play in the World Club Challenge, the team that finished first or the Grand Final winners?

We won the league get over it.

And am well aware "Super League champions" means winning the Grand Final.

Just like winning the league means finishing top after 27 rounds.

Its not hard.

It is to some,depending on which team you follow ie Wigan or Saints.

Am off to the club shop to buy my We have won the league Tee shirt..

Ok, so now I think I understand last year we won the league (and were crowned champions; in a different competition) and you were challenge cup champions?

This year you have won the league, we are challenge cup champions and now weve started a new competition to see who's crowned GF Champions??

Is that right??

Thanks for clearing it up clearly I know nothing about rugby league

So the league games have finished,Wire have finished top.So we have won the league.What is hard to understand about that.

A list of superleague winners to help you understand www.superleague.co.uk/page/winners/345 I don't agree with it and YOU SHOULD have won 'the league' IMO but the way SL is divisied now you are LEAGUE LEADERS and have won that title through being the best team over the 27 rounds. IF you win the GF you will be crowned CHAMPIONS having won the SUPER LEAGUE. I don't think anyone is taking anything away from you guys, even some of your fellow fans are saying you have not 'won the league'.

You are. It will become clear to you if or when you finish top and get turned over in the GF. You need to finish top and lose one to understand.

I said we won the league.

I didn't say we was Champions

OR Super League Champions

I also stated it was the lesser of the 3.

Why are people so thick?

What league have you won if not the super league

That one you know where you play every team over 27 rounds before the Play-Offs and Grand Final.

What's it called?

The league.

Its seems the BBC (SuperLeague show) agree with those people who are saying that Warrington "won the league". Whilst I think they very often get things wrong, on this occassion I will let it slide....

We won the minor prem

I get it now = we play 'The League' from Feb to Sept and then we play 'Super League'

I give in

No we play the Play-offs and the Grand Final to decide who the Champions are.

HTH
