London omitted as Super League clubs named for 2027
The 14 Super League clubs will remain in place for 2027 with no spot for Championship winners London Broncos.
Fourteen clubs will continue their participation in Super League during the 2027 season after the release of annual gradings. Despite London Broncos' recent treble success, including the Championship Grand Final and 1895 Cup victories, they only secured 16th place in the gradings, trailing Barrow Raiders. Wakefield Trinity emerged as the top-ranked club, achieving a record grading score of 17.85.
This success is attributed to their strong performance across five factors - fan experience, finance, stadium, community, and on-field performance. Five of the 14 Super League clubs have improved their scores compared to the previous year, while only six have maintained or increased their standings.
