The Rugby Football League Championship had been the status quo for rugby league in England until 1996. That year Super League came in with big fanfare and with a promise revolutionise the game of rugby league across the globe. The rugby league season changed from winter to summer. The logic behind the change was to attract bigger crowds and reduce competition from other winter sports.
The Super League rugby competition has 12 teams with promotion and relegation. At present there are eleven teams from England and one team from France.

Back in UK after an incredible trip to Australia, where I met up with old pal @JoelCaine and the Missile, @JamesMagnussen_ for a good old chinwag on @SuperLeague on Radio Sen1170 down at Darling Harbour! Loved it!
Well deserved. The most improved player in @SuperLeague over the past 2-3 seasons, and head and shoulders Leeds' best player in 2023.
Leeds making the right moves, just comes down to whether Rowan Smith can do the job as coach. 🤔
Class personified 💯
