I put it to you? Would you rather be Leeds Rugby with the affectionate local moniker the Loiners? Or the Rhino's as part of a marketing brand?

This I don't dispute. However, I feel that with the addition of things like Bulls and Rhinos, we somehow sold a part of our heritage.

Agreed but the alternative was just having the heritage and no future IMHO

Sadly NO.

They are part of the heritage of the game but we had no choice but to dance to the Sky Pipers tune I'm afraid and embrace the moderm marketing era

As I remember it all of the clubs in SL were forced to get an American nickname for marketing purposes, but we got away with it because we were already using the 'Saints' logo as a brand.

Thank f**k for that.
