The League Leaders Shield: an apology

In previous years, the writers and editors of this website may have given the impression that they thought the League Leaders Shield was a relatively worthless piece of silverware.

Comments such as "the hubcap", "the salad dish", "tin plate" and "won nowt yet" may have lead readers to believe that we were of the opinion that this achievement meant little in the grander scheme of things.

In light of Saturday's remarkable events as the Dragons came from 30-12 down against nearest rivals St Helens to level matters and then go on to win with a dramatic 40-metre drop-goal from the boot of Jimmy Maloney, we now realise this was misguided and the Shield is extremely valuable and an important part of any club's palmarès.

We apologise for any confusion and are happy to clear this matter up.
