Eddie Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Thanks to Hull Live for this. I was surprised to see Bradford still in 7th, and the gap between Saints and Leeds being bigger than Leeds and Wire. 1st: St Helens - Seasons: 28 - Points: 1,087 2nd: Wigan - Seasons: 28 - Points: 1,030 3rd: Leeds - Seasons: 28 - Points: 922 4th: Warrington - Seasons: 28 - Points: 804 5th: Hull FC - Seasons: 26 - Points: 700 6th: Castleford - Seasons: 26 - Points: 648 7th: Bradford - Seasons: 19 - Points: 617 8th: Huddersfield - Seasons: 25 - Points: 597 9th: Wakefield - Seasons: 25 - Points: 483 10th: Catalans - Seasons: 18 - Points: 483 11th: Salford - Seasons: 25 - Points: 464 12th: London - Seasons: 20 - Points: 410 13th: Hull KR - Seasons: 16 - Points: 356 14th: Widnes - Seasons: 11 - Points: 202 15th: Halifax - Seasons - 8 - Points: 154 16th: Sheffield - Seasons: 4 - Points: 77 17th: Leigh - Seasons: 4 - Points: 53 18th: Gateshead - Seasons: 1 - Points: 39 19th Crusaders - Seasons: 3 - Points: 38 20th: Oldham - Seasons: 2 - Points: 28 21st: Paris - Seasons: 2 - Points: 19 22nd: Toulouse - Seasons: 1 - Points: 10 23rd: Workington - Seasons: 1 - Points: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, in comparison of points per SL trophy they seem to come out well relative to Wigan. But is the real story Wigan not converting so many points into titles, which shows up by their comparison with St Helen's, too? For me, Leeds have had a couple of ropey seasons recently which means they were probably closer before, whereas Wigan (and I am not a close follower of SL every season) never seem to drop that low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N2022 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 If Leeds make the final they tend to win it. Wigan have lost nearly as many as they've won and St Helen's record is better than that but with that nasty run of final losses marring it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopie Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Leeds flirting with relegation on multiple occasions is the what the gap shows (Assuming those middle-8s points don't count?), Saints always finish in the play-offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blues Ox Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Actually quite surpried that Salford and Wakey have spent the same amount of time in SL but Wakefield are above them. I would never have guessed that and always just presumed that Wakey were the basket case club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M j M Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Leeds have had two very good Super League teams, 1998-1999 and 2003-2017 (the latter being more than just very good). Everything else has varied between average to abysmal. Wigan and Saints, apart from maybe one really comedy year each, haven't seen such variation.

Would you call a 15 year period for a club a 'team'? By my calculations, Leeds fielded 95 players in Super League in that time?

Barley Mow Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 34 minutes ago, marklaspalmas said: Yes. But they played in Super League. Didn't Super League say that all of their matches were null and void and not to be counted in the records? If you want them in there: 24th: Toronto Wolfpack - Seasons: approx 0.2 - Points: 0 Six other clubs will need their points updating to account for victories over Toronto as well.

Calm. That's not how it works. Their results were removed from the league tables. They played in SL and of course the matches count for players records. https://www.fevarchive.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barley Mow Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Just now, marklaspalmas said: The matches were played. Points were scored. Appearances were made. They didn't disappear. They were removed from the league table when the Pack dropped out mid-season post-Covid. Yes, but this table records seasons played (Toronto didn't complete one) and points achieved. Even if Toronto had won all six of their Super League matches, they wouldn't have recorded any points, because the points from their matches did not feature in the final league table for that year. As far as the league table was concerned (and that is what this thread relates to) those matches do not count. If you want Toronto's matches to count, then surely Saints, Hull FC and Halifax's totals should include the two points they were deducted for salary cap breaches in 2003, Bradford and Wigan's points deductions in 2006 and 2007, Wakefield and Crusaders in 2011, etc. They played those matches and earnt those points. If the governing body deducts points or says that matches don't count towards the competition, then why would they be included in this table?

Barley Mow Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) 2 hours ago, marklaspalmas said: All I said was Toronto played in SL I assumed the implication of that (and your subsequent points) was that you thought their record should be in the all time table. Apologies if I misinterpreted that and it was meant as a stand alone, unrelated statement. Yes you are correct, Toronto did play in Super League.

By my calculations, Leeds fielded 95 players in Super League in that time? It's a fair question... that era was built around Sinfield, Burrow, McGuire and JJB who all played from 2003 to at least 2015, the latter three to 2017. Then there were people who were almost constants e.g. Carl Ablett (2004-2017), Peacock (2006-2015), Ryan Bailey (2003-2014), Kylie Leuluai (2007-2015) and Ryan Hall (2007-2017). So I'm happy to define it as one team for the purposes of this Edited January 26 by M j M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
