Thanks for proving my very original point Seb.
Saints HAVE been the dominant force over the last 10 years or so.
Actually, SEB didn't prove your point, as SEB looked back over the full SL history, and not the last 10 years, which was your point.
There is no doubt that Saints have been the most succesful team during this period, but IMO it is wrong to say they have been dominant, as you can't get away from the fact that out of their 5 SL Titles, 4 of them came over 7 years ago, and their last one 3 years ago.
The main debate came from your original post which stated:

Nevermind the big 4 or even big 2.
There is only one team in SL that has pretty much dominated the show in the last 10 years and thats Saints.
Again this year they will win everything, Challenge Cup, SL League Leaders and The Grand Final (And probably the world club challenge next year).
Leeds I feel are starting to lose the plot and there are no other suitable contenders to challenge Saints.
Questions need to be asked. The introduction of the salary cap was to promote equality and competition throughout the whole of SL, why then are Saints light years in front of the rest of the competition?
Answers on a post card.
TBH im finding Saints domination quite boring and sickening.
So you find Saints domination boring and sickening despite the fact that Leeds have done them the last two years, and looking at the last 8 years, Bradford and Leeds have won 6 of these. That hardly suggests that Saints have ben dominant during this period does it?
You also say that they will win everything
again. When was the last time they won everything, as they certainly didn't last year, or the year before.
I will agree that Saints have been the best team, but the way you went on in your original bitter post, it was as though nobody else gets a look in, which couldn;t be further from the truth.
