They are representing the British game and I care for that more than the Aussie game.

Similar thread last year revealed not that many wanted Leeds to win. What's different this time?

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

| Quote: PHIPPS "I see your point Vikingsmurf.
It would probably have taken the OP a full 5 seconds to type 'Illawarra Dragons' on the end of 'St George'....and as you say we all lead busy lives.
As I'm sure you know 'St George Dragons' and the 'Illawarra Steelers' merged in 1998 to form what we now know as the St George ILLAWARRA Dragons.
When referring to merged clubs I think it's only fair to mention both the teams.
The OP could even have typed 'SGI' if he was REALLY strapped for time.
Laziness is no excuse, especially on an internet forum.'"
Laziness...or the fact 99.5% of people, when asked who Wigan are playing, would answer 'St George'. Further, I despise the 'Warriors' tag and avoid using it wherever possible, and in the name of symmetry and balance have therefore shortened the name of St George Illawarra Steeler Dragons Rugby League Football Club to a similar length; that being two syllables.
Your anal pedantry knows no limits.

Link to this 'fact'?
I'm sure that more than 0.5 % of the people who were asked would have replied 'The Dragons'

54062_1294991734.gif RLFans finest:
[quote="Saint77777":3t42372l]Maguire was a black mark on RL in this country. Whilst coaches like Daniel Anderson and Brian McLennan won championships on the back of exciting Rugby league, Maguire set out to win at all costs, evident by the way Danny Maguire was seriously injured and laughed at on the floor by the wigan players as he writhed in agony. Then there has been the constant bending back of limbs, trying to seriously maim the opposition. Even Phil Clarke has jumped on the bandwagon with his disgusting comments about the Danny Maguire incident.
I think its fitting that the 2 fairest teams in the comp, who have been on the receiving end of Wigans tactics should contest the Grand Final and make it a proper family day out instead of the knuckle dragging, salivating neanderthals from Wigan, that would pour into manchester on grand final day.
I for one cant wait to mingle with the Leeds fans and have a beer with them, rather than having to watch my arms and legs, should wigan have got there.[/quote:3t42372l]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_54062.gif |

| Phipps, you are a complete tool.
Alright, back on topic...COME ON WIGAN!!!!!

People I've spoken to about Catalans Dragons generally refer to them as 'Catalans' or 'Cats' in my experience.
So how many people did you ask about this 'St George' thing?

| Well if wigan win all you will get from eddie, stevo and of course pie clarke.. I mean phil is world champions this, world champions that.. And always referring back to the game on why Wigan are so good. for the whole of the season, I just don't think I could bare it. Plus think it's a farce anyway because if it was played in aussie they would only be one winner especially if it was in there OWN stadium. So I want dragons to win so the farce of a game can hopefully be forgotten about.
