Does it? Leeds finished 5th twice in a row and still get stick about it. Wakefield finish 5th twice, the latter of which because the other teams basically gave up, and its some sort of great achievement. You were in the mix to finish bottom 4 with 2 games to go last year against a Leeds team that most agree was the worst performing Leeds squad in our SL history against what your fans are calling your best built squad in SL history.
Finish 5th this year when 5th means something, rather than when Catalans don’t give a damn because they have the cup or Hull have given up because 4th is out of reach and THEN people might be impressed.
And that isn’t trolling before you usual suspect start, that’s just reality. 8 out of the 12 SL teams have won silverware in the last 5 years Wakefield boasting about finishing OUTSIDE the crucial positions ISN’T impressive.
5th for Trinity, with their meagre budget is one hell of an achievement and it was in the super 8's which was supposed to mean something. After all 4th was a semi final spot ??
And yes, a 5th place finish should mean that Leeds get some stick, they are supposed to be one of the top 2 clubs in the country, therefore, finishing 3rd (or worse) is an under achievement for Leeds.
As for "boasting", my post was in reply to a Huddersfield fan asking why Trinity should be "expecting" a higher place finish than them (Huddersfield).
It's quite hilarious when people like you dismiss clubs like Trinity, when they are doing prett well (for their size and income), after all we are a long way behind the spending power of most SL clubs and can only dream of spending the full cap with a couple of marque players thrown in as well.
With your current obsession for all things Trinity, perhaps you should come down to Bell Vue, instead of Headingley.
