It's interesting that your 'practically given' top four have not occupied all the top four places in SL since 2003.

How much deviation has there been and then apply to the top 6 but your point since 2003 is noted.

And of course all this means we have a very intensive competition and can produce teams for tests that compete and regularly wallop the Aussies.

Sorry for not seeing the obvious.

Right, so because the national team performed poorly we should just give up playing domestic RL altogether.

Please explain your correlation.

I can't see what you are implying from my post

Yes. It does. Why would a poor performance by the National team mean domestic results are no longer important?

The usual lot will battle out the play offs apart from Rovers taking the place of Catalans.
Also I think Rovers will be pumped for the Challenge Cup and with a bit of luck in the draw will lift the challenge cup.
Hull Fc will struggle and do battle with salford/celtic for the wooden spoon.

I am hazzarding a guess that you are a Hull KR fan :roll:

Now I understand what you are getting at.

Thanks for the clarification.

I think it's more of a misunderstanding between what I thought I wrote and what you think I wrote meant and yes it can be interpreted both ways I suppose.

Of course domestic RL counts
