2014 Super League — Final Ladder

St Helens won the League Leaders' Shield, finishing top after 27 rounds. Bradford Bulls (13th) and London Broncos (14th) were relegated to the Championship — the first season relegation applied since being reintroduced, and Bradford's first-ever relegation from the top flight after 40 unbroken years (1974-2014). This was the last 14-club Super League season before the competition contracted to 12 clubs in 2015.

Sourcing caveat: Hull Kingston Rovers (9th) and Salford Red Devils (10th) finished level on 23 competition points, split on points difference (-38 vs -87); both missed the top-8 playoff cutoff. Bradford Bulls' competition points reflect a 6-point deduction imposed by the RFL on 25 February 2014 after the club entered administration (their second in two years); their raw record (8 wins) would otherwise have earned 16 points. Bradford appealed the deduction; an independent panel rejected the appeal in June 2014 and it stood for the full season. One AI-summarized source fetch during research initially misreported the deduction as reduced to 2 points — resolved as incorrect via 2 further sources confirming the full 6-point deduction stood throughout.
