In narrow terms of consistency (not quality) of performance (not results), I think it is a legitimate question.
I think it'd be funnier if we thought we had a top quality team that was fundamentally underperforming for some reason. 'When you look at our team on paper, we should be top 4', that sort of thing.
First step to improving is accurately identifying shortcomings, even when other explanations would maybe be more palatable.

That tells me a lot about the range of literature you have missed out on in life. Context dear boy, try reading MR's full post and get back to us.

Who are you not signing this week?

Wigan were really inconsistent last year. Barely won an away game all year. Thumps us one week and lost to us a week or so later. So I think he's spot on. Leeds were their most consistent in years last year barring a dip post cc final.

If you think this is the funniest thing you've ever read then you must have missed most of Pearson 's press releases in recent years.

We lost 14 to your teams 18 losses yet you finish above us! Go figure the logic of the RFL's system!
