1. St Helens and Wigan
2. Hull F.C and Hull KR
3. Bradford and Leeds
4. Castleford and Wakefield'"


Wakefield might regard their game with the successful neighbours as a big thing. [iOur[/i rivalry, though, is and always has been with the Loiners.

Would consider Widnes to be our 'rivals' these days, and indeed that's been the case for at least the past 10 years.

icon_lol.gif Without question the most deluded comment from a Cas fan ever and that is saying something. Your supposed rivalry with Leeds is similar to the one Leeds United fans think they have with Man United - a one way figment of your imagination. Man United fans seem blissfully unaware they have any rivalry with Leeds!

You can only have a rivalry if both clubs see it the same way - sorry to burst your ballon but Leeds fans don't - for most of them it's Cas who?

Feel free to kid yourself if it makes you feel better but your real rivals are Wakey and to a lesser extent Fev - your not a big enough threat to bother Leeds and you never were.

Leeds fans want to see their team beat Bradford, Saints and Wigan, with Bradford being their derby game.

As a matter of interest who are these successful neighbours, I believe Fev have won a title and the cup, we have won the title twice and the cup five times, don't recall you winning the title so I can only assume you are talking about Fev icon_eek.gif

I would love for Leigh to have a proper rivalry with Wigan again.

It's been good to see Warrington step up their game over the last 5 years and give us a good, intense rivalry too. It's been a while since Wigan and Warrington created an atmosphere like the one at the HJ last Saturday.

Me Too. A competitive Wigan vs Leigh game would be epic IMO. I think the Wigan Saints derbies over the past few years have waned due to our recent form against them. Hopefully this year with us on the up we can get back to the Derbies of old.

The Quins-Drags match despite its artificial contruct is nevertheless always a violent affair. If you look at the stats more players have been sent off in this game than in any other in the last few years. Quins fans do regard this as the Derby match as they are the easiest opponents to get to, just hop on a plane and you are there in no time.

Agree re Cas and Leeds.

But did you watch the fa cup game between Man Utd and Leeds?? The Man Utd fans were massively up for the game, much more so than on most other match days!!!

Can't pick between Saints/Wigan and FC/KR for the most intense derby for me.

Tigers for life!!! Not Just for Superleague!!!:38175.jpg



To be honest as a Cas fan of many a year the team i would describe as our biggest and most intense rivalry is with Fev.....

After that i always like to beat Wakey and Leeds but i would hate to lose to Fev

Yes I did and didn't really notice it to be honest.

Although now totally committed to RL and Wakey I was once a genuine Red. Started watching the season Docherty got us promoted back to the old first division and attended fairly often til about 1994 when I lost all interest in football.

In that time Leeds were of no real interest, the one that mattered was Liverpool and it's still the one that really counts, pure hatred. After that came Chelsea, Arsenal and City. Sorry icon_sad.gif

The art of Rugby League Tactics According to Dally Messenger "Just use dummy runners":



Quote: Javier Mascherano "couldn't resist could you nice person?
