If we are allowed to take it beyond Super League, I would vote for 1984-85.

Hull Kingston Rovers were champions aided by the signing of the great Gavin Miller.

Wigan beat Hull in probably the best Challenge Cup final of all time with Peter Sterling and Brett Kenny opposite each other.

St. Helens beat Hull Kingston Rovers in the Premiership with the Harry Sunderland Trophy going to the mercurial Harry Pinner. 

Mal Meninga inspired St Helens to a win over Wigan in the Lancashire Cup final at Central Park. 

Last but not least, the 1985 Man of Steel, Ellery Hanley became the first man to score more than 50 tries in a season since Billy Boston.

"The history of the world is the history of the triumph of the heartless over the mindless." — Sir Humphrey Appleby.

"If someone doesn't value evidence, what evidence are you going to provide to prove that they should value it? If someone doesn't value logic, what logical argument could you provide to show the importance of logic?" — Sam Harris
