    But with them dropping like a stone this year, the standard of play has fallen, hopefully next season they will be back, we and all other teams will embrace a more pleasing to the eye type of rugby the league definitely needs a good Leeds team (as long as they always finish second to us).
    Perfectly valid point, and in a greater sense the demise of Leeds allowed the top teams to relax slightly. From about 15 games in this season it was basically 4 from 5 in terms of who would make the Semi Finals. We went on a good stretch, Catalans imploded, so 5 became 4 and it's been 4 for a while now. Had Leeds been as good as they usually are then the battle for the 4 spots would have been alot more interesting, and one of the current Top 4 would be worrying about missing out, which has to be good for the intensity of the games and the league in general.
