| Quote vastman="vastman"What a stupid reply - one Wildcats is no more stupid than Rhino's, in fact slightly better, give it a rest.
Secondly and as ever you are utterly clueless yet you speak with an arrogance way beyond your knowledge. Since turning back to Trinity it has been met by universal acclaim across the district. Merchandise sales have roughly doubled or so I'm told though I only need to look to see it.
So mouth all mighty who are these people we would have attracted by keeping what you yourself are calling a stupid name.
You've utterly contradicted yourself. I'd say you had lost all credibility but you can't lose what you never had.'"
Love you too Vastman. Never change.

| Quote PopTart="PopTart"Every football team has a nickname though and many use this in their marketing. It's certainly a main part of the badge and therefore the kit.'"
Yep agreed, and whilst they are only a nickname in football is it really any better than The Rhinos or The Bulls to be referred to as The Toffees or The Owls or The Cottagers just to pick a few examples.

| Quote wrencat1873="wrencat1873"Nothing like a bit of success to regain those lapses fans.
A team winning trophies will work far, far better than any "marketing mans" fancy name.
You may be right about it helping get the kids along in the first place though.
Mind you, although all pro football clubs have their mascotts, they havent gone down the same path RL has'"
It ultimately comes down to clubs creating that identity. Walk around Leeds and ask people what a "Loiner" is, and I suspect you'd get a lot of blank looks. The club needed something to distinguish itself from everything else called "Leeds", and "The Rhinos" is instantly recognisable.

| Quote Exiled down south="Exiled down south"Did the Roosters exists in the 70's or were they an area of Sydney ie Easts?'"
Of course they existed, I think you've missed the point, they were unofficially known as the Rooster thats the point, same as Manly were actually Manly Warringa (spelling) but were often refered to as the Sea Eagle, Seagulls or even Eagles.What the NSWRL did was to adopt them as a marketing tool but they already existed in a fashion - Rhino's and Wildcats didn't.

So I'm a troll because you don't agree - true snowflake mentality.

| Quote rollin thunder="rollin thunder"As we have seen in recent years letting people decide by polls /democracy does not work, somethings are better left to people who no more about how to run the game/clubs. pretty sure if there was a national poll to bring back hanging, it would win, but does not make it the right thing to do does it. After all the Naziz were elected, people buy Coldplay and Justin Bieber records. and 90% of northern people don't like change.'"
What an arrogant individual you are, truly vile but typical of the poly technic generation.

No reply because you were wrong and you knew it. No i'll never stop saying it how it is, your oversensitivity is not my problem.

| Quote PopTart="PopTart"Yes. Definitely was and still is really. Just not used publivally anymore.'"
It was Dreadnowt's I believe not dreadnoughts as in the ships - a play on words I believe. There is a famous picture with the players holding a banner, it says Dreadnowts but your eyes trick you into seeing Dreadnoughts for some reason.
Thats not to say we haven't been called Dreadnoughts at some point as we probably have.

Yeah I thought the Cas one had some history to it and tbf it matches the colours and Tigers are always cool. Rhino's does none of that for me.
