The saints wigan game sold old 3-4 days before the game.

The wigan v wire game only got 21k.

I would honestly put the Leigh game above Warrington if they were in super league.

Maybe they were pre-season, but once again the cream is rising to the top.

For me...

NSW v QL (biggest games in world rugby, highest standard anywhere, fact not opinion)
Wigan v Saints (Biggest game in world RL behind origin, opinion not fact)
Wigan v Wire
Bradford v Saints (A throw back to days gone-by maybe)
Leeds v Bradford (a very efficient regional airport)

NSW vs. Queensland origin is seen as a major selection trial for the Kangaroos – historically the winning origin team has dominated the test team

The Australian national team are neither the current 4 Nations or World Champions

How is it that the combined side from the highest standard anywhere then gets beat by another team? Or is it actually your opinion that origin is the highest standard anywhere and not actually fact?

I agree that throughout the 80’ and 90’s that origin was the highest standard rugby played but the Kiwi’s have shown now that test rugby is once again the highest standard and the Australians have been found wanting

Again, Boll*cks, Saints vs Wigan, was, is, and will be the Pies biggest game, they hate each other.

How can 2 matches in a ground that only holds about 13000 be considered big?

Really?,Warrington have only recently achieved the dizzy heights of greatness,so all of a sudden you are a font of all knowledge?

Don`t let fact get in the way of fantasy.

I was one of those who said that. And I stand by it. However, Saints-Wigan will ALWAYS be a bigger match than Wigan-Wire. But being the tool that you are, you won't admit that. Now go ask your carer to change you for bed.

Wigan - Saints is THE match for me as a wigan fan. if we were top of the league, them bottom or the other way around it is still the biggest match. if it was a mid table, nothing to battle for game, its still the biggest game. if we are the bottom two it is still the biggest game. (all of these for a wigan fan)

warrington is a big game at the moment because they are one of the best teams, and so are we. but it isnt the same, if we were top and them bottom, it wouldnt be a big game at all. but with saints its still a big game.

that is the difference for me.

There's a difference between biggest rivalries and biggest games I think.

Biggest games for me would be:

Wigan-Saints
Hull-Hull KR
Leeds-Bradford

These three are all as big as each other for me, then i'd go for

Wigan-Warrington
Saints-Warrington

One day i'll get off my backside and do what i've always wanted to and go over the hill and watch a Leeds-Bradford derby then go to a Hull-Hull KR derby on an easter weekend.

Wigan Warrington number 1? Get over yourselves Warrington fans. Youve won the mickey mouse cup twice. Grats!

1. Wigan v Saints

Daylight

2. Hull v Hull KR
3. Bradford v Leeds

a few years ago I would have had Bradford v Leeds second

Wigan v saints
Hull v hull kr
Leeds v bradford
Wigan v warrington
Saints v leeds

The airport derby has been took over by the hull one and it's not even close

Nice generalisation! One fan, of obvious long heritage ( less than 100 posts ) puts this up and we're all the same? However, I'll take winning the Mickey Mouse Cup at Wembley in front of 80,000 people any season! I guess your club doesn't even try to win this one as it's so insignificant........................

This is my 5 too.

GB Police vs GB Teachers is a cracking fixture

the airport derby is a Sky generated derby, Leeds have bigger games against Saints, Wigan, Cas and Wakey
