You don't want to mention the over 30's do you. That's the one thing Leeds win this year hands down.

I trust the locals celebrated in time honoured fashion - a few choruses of "throw the Jew down the well"?

Hands down you say? At season end as you pointed out Leeds with it's failing academy have 9 players over 30. the pies despite all it's kids will have 7? 7 to 9? I would say there's nowt in it. Obviously it's important to produce kids through the academy but one that is alleged to be the best around isnt knocking out many more stars than one that is alleged to be failing?

I don't wish to be pedantic but I'd hve thought it quite obvious there was 2 in it?

I thought hands down was a term used to suggest plenty? I don't find 2 as plenty or in this case hands down!



So in the context of the topic "there's nowt in it" been a few apposed to hands down been plenty.



Now take saints they have only 5 players over 30 at season end, that's hands down. Wigan with all it's academy super stars still have 7 30+ blokes. Leeds with its alleged failing academy has 9 blokes over 30+ I perhaps should have said there's not a lot in it. Obviously I'm more Yorkshire than you and subbed nowt for not a lot.



My bad.

And only 5 overseas players, compared to Leeds' and Wigan's 7 (8 for Wigan if you are talking players who wouldn't represent home nations, as Hansen plays for Samoa).



If only all sides were as altruistic as us.





Then again, Wigan/Leeds have 4 SL titles in a row and we have 4 GF defeats in a row

There's a price to pay for playing by the rul.....oh, wait a minute...

If you're going to count Hansen (which you shouldn't) then make it six for Saints and include Nathan Ashe.

Nathan Ashe has played for Samoa
