Suppose finishing top isn’t bad for a team whose chairman supposedly doesn’t put money in anymore. |

| Quote: AS108 "The 3 produced by Saints were world class and some of the best in Super League. In comparison, Patton is garbage, Currie’s knee will stop him from fulfilling his potential in all likelihood and there has to be doubts whether he’ll be able to go on much longer, Philbin and Cooper both good players but aren’t close to be being the best props in SL now never mind back then. As for the rest, Livett and King are bang average and that’s being very kind, Jack Johnson isn’t good enough and I haven’t watched enough of the rest. Ultimately, the quality of player coming from the Warrington academy is poor when compared to Saints and Wigan. You only have to look at the number of current Saints players who’ve been recently been in the England team.'"
Edited for accuracy.
Quite amusing watching Saints and Wire fans having a b1tchfest even though, as a Salford fan, I had to Google the word "trophy" to understand what they were waffling on about 
Any London, Wakey, KR fans want to join me in a thread where we can boast over who's the test?  |

What this all boils down to is the standard sequence of fan comments regarding NRL imports.
Stage One: ALL FANS 'We'd love to have Player X in our squad. He's a brilliant player would improve any SL team'
Stage Two: ALL FANS (except those of club with whom he is rumoured to be signing) 'Player X is clearly only coming for the money else he wouldn't have considered signing for Small Club X instead of our club.'
Stage Three: ALL FANS (except those of club with whom he is rumoured to be signing) 'How can they fit Player X under their Salary Cap?'
Stage Four: Fans of club for whom player has actually now signed 'Fantastic news for the club and shows our ambition'
Stage Five: ALL FANS (except those of club for whom he has actually now signed) 'He's crocked/over the hill/waste of money/not a good use of marquee etc etc'.

Riveting but it does make a change from the usual Yorkshire 'chit chat' though?  |

Yup 100 pages of chit chat about building a stadium instead of actually doing it.

I am of course pleased to be an observant bystander in most things Leeds/Wakefield Castleford and always thought that the rhubarb triangle was based on actually growing rhubarb rather than the inane background noise uttered on a stage play (usually a farce).

In the interests of fairness I think both clubs have been let down to some degree by others, although I don't get the ground share idea being dismissed so easily out of hand on the basis that it (mistakenly IMO) threatens a merger or will lose diehards who can't cross a certain street.....and I apologise for my help in turning the quality Widdop thread into standard east of the Pennines fare
