Understandable.

Other sides have come over and played 'warm up' matches in front of half a dozen supporters against Harlequins in London. What a waste of time.

St Scum have decided to get their other trial match out of the way in Sydney before they have to come over to the UK for the WCC.... a game which is a total waste of time and effort but hey ho.....


Good to see they have agreed to play Wigan at Wigans home ground too.

The only people who will be interested in this one will be Wigan supporters anyway.... pretty pointless to make them travel somewhere else. It's highly unlikely there will actually be any actual genuine St Scumawarra supporters going along. I've lived in London for a while now and I have never met any other Aussies here who claim to go for them.

Read the St george forums, I went on about a couple of weeks ago and there were quite a few planning the trip over, or wishing that they could.

As for only Wigan fans being interested, I'm an FC fan and I'm interested, and I'd bet quite a few Saints fans are interested, what with St George also having the Red Vee and playing against Wigan..

That always makes me smile... St Helens supporters also supporting St G*orge simply because they both start with 'St' and have a red chevron icon_biggrin.gif

I go for Cronulla... it's like me suddenly declaring my support for Hull FC just because their change strip is blue and white and they were once known as Hull Sharks.

edit: I can see why some St Helens fans would go along purely to see if Wigan get a flogging ... but they would support anyone that was playing Wigan i'm sure

Can't be that pointless if you've decided to use the time and effort to start a thread about it. Another boring post from Barry that I could only be bothered to read the first few lines of before getting bored.

Can't be @rsed to read the post, but if the title is true then that's good news. The games against Harlequins were a joke.

is half a dozen anywhere near 6000 in other parts of the world?

I fail to see a joke, broadly the games achieved the aims for both the Harlequins club and the Australian opposition. A warm-up match could only be railed upon were it to advertised as anything more than that, or a trophy attributed to it, and neither were the case. The Manly Sea Eagles and Melbourne Storm played in English conditions, against English players, under English referees, etc and Harlequins learnt that Australians in the capital have no interest in the Super League, save for when a club with several well-known Australian NRL players are in their side, ie Warrington with Matt King, Michael Monaghan and Chris Hicks. The London players got to play against superior opposition, and a fully antipodean outfit with all of their different skills, systems and style.

As you say can't be bothered to read the post, but prepared to have a dig at a warm-up fixture anyway.

How come if the Aussies arn't the best at an event it doesn't matter anymore? WCC and International RL being the two that they don't seem interested in these days.

Probably because the Australian sporting nation is second only to the average six year old child when it comes to attitude

If they win, they are the best in the world... if they lose, they weren’t even trying and weren’t that bothered anyway

I think Australia is the only country in the world that’s capable of throwing a tantrum. My theory is that because as a country it is so irrelevant in the world they only have to use sport to try and make themselves seen or heard... kind of like a child again trying to act up for attention – it’s infuriating but at the same time understandable

If that's the case how come they're no good at anything? RL, Soccerball, Athletics, F1, Cricket, Golf, I could go on.....

I know, it's funny isn't it... as a country, they define themselves by sport and now they are rubbish at it!

I was hoping we (Leigh) might get the warm up game due to proximity to Wigan and the obvious links between Ian Millward and St George.

Bit gutted really, St George are my NRL team too.
