Leeds Rhinos, Hull KR and Hull FC are among the seven clubs awarded Grade A status in the indicative phase of rugby league's new grading system.
The Rhinos achieved the highest score of 17.49, with a maximum of 20 available across five pillars – on-field performance, fandom, finances, stadium and community. KR rank sixth on 15.52 with cross-city rivals FC just behind in seventh place with 15.05 points. Wigan Warriors, St Helens, Catalans Dragons and Warrington Wolves are also above the threshold of 15 points required to be graded A, which guarantees clubs a place in Super League with an exemption from relegation.
'I sent all of the supporting evidence to the RFL expecting our error to be amended as the RFL’s error was and we believe other clubs’ scores were amended. We were then informed later yesterday evening that due to the lateness of the information the grades would be published with the RFL’s amendment, but without ours and they would also allow us to appeal and they would be announcing that as part of the grading story.
