I don't necessarily agree with that statement, Daddycool. Did we not finish last season above both Saints and Wigan? Both of whom I presume are part of the top four spenders that you refer to. What about the nilling of Wigan and the fine win over Leeds (another top spender) last season? We can beat these teams, but there is just a "Je ne sais quoi" that prevents us going the full distance year after year.
As a one off , any result is possible. On a longer term basis results always regress to the mean. Take Wimbledon in the premiership as an example.
What did St. Helens do to rectify the situation. Go out and spend £400,000 on Ben barba!!!
