Quote ="jinkin jimmy"Just look back at your own team if the point of this thread eludes you. Long, Sculthorpe, Lyon, etc. Way better than what you have now and it's the same at many other clubs. We might have a competitive league but it's down on quality IMHO.'"
It’s exactly what clubs like Wakey and Cas wanted when the salary cap was voted in and increases voted out. I’ve praised both sides to the hilt for the way they’ve played these past couple of years but without wanting to be controversial, they are where they are because the standards being levelled off in a downwards sense. We used to have 3 or 4 top class club sides in this country along with a few average ones and a few very poor ones. We now have about 8 average ones and 4 poor ones.
I’m not sure any sport should be aiming to manufacture a level playing field by bringing some clubs levels down but this is rugby league.
