Quote: NickyKiss "I said before we got knocked out of the play offs that I'd trade a grand final win for us if England could win this four nations. We can blame all sorts of different factors for the international games slow death but let's face it the main one is a lack of genuine success. If we could get that success on Saturday the game in this country will receive such a boost. The international game will hopefully start to rise again and become the pinnacle of the sport bringing in the sort of funds it should do which will help clubs at all levels.

Saturday is far bigger then any grand final or challenge cup final and a win to me would mean everything!'"

well said Nicky, I am in agreement with all that! Come in England!!!

Quote: SaintsFan "No WAY does Heighington offer better defence than Jon Wilkin! Were you watching the same game as me on Saturday? Say what you like about Wilkin's kicking game - it's usually crap with occasional brilliance (more like good luck!) or about his lack of impact (he isn't that sort of second rower) - but Wilkin is superb in defence. Way better than Heighington.

Heighington is just a shining example of the bollox so many English spout when talking about the NRL. He's only got a spot because he plays in the NRL thanks to the coach buying in to that same bollox.'"


Can you not bypass the swear filter please.

Thanks.

Back to the original point. It would mean the following to me

1) I'd be proud of the lads because, for at least a few months, they'd be the best team in the world.
2) I'd be proud that they'd beaten a super team in Australia Rugby League
3) I'd be over the moon to stick two fingers up, not at the arrogant Aussies who dismiss us, but to all those doom-mongerers who whine on about how we can never compare to the NRL, blah, blah, blah
4) I'd be even more inspired for the next international fixtures.
5) I'd be hopeful that the above point 4) would apply not just to positive supporters like myself, but may have an effect on those who don't give international rugby the attention and support it deserves.
6)I'd hope that it gets us some better national press coverage.
7) I'd hope that, beating both Aus and NZ (easily), would mean the aussies changed their attitude towards our lads, and that you'd see more large NRL contract offers coming this way because of their new salary cap. If this was to happen, sky would have to rethink their offer to stop a player drain away from their product, therefore increasing our revenue and our clubs' ability to compete with Union and NRL clubs.

Maybe 7's a long shot.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

I'm now 40yrs old and have never seen England/GB win a series against Australia. I've seen Wigan win everything over and over but if England can beat the aussies this weekend it would be the happiest day of my life as a rugby league fan. This is a great chance for our sport to grab some much deserved national acclaim this weekend and I hope the lads grab it with both hands. All credit to Steve Macnamara (who has remained dignified in the face of some extremely hostile critisism) and the rfl for his appointment. I think rugby league is heading in the right direction in this country in the face of some stiff competition. Success this weekend will encourage fans to turn out in larger numbers in future thereby increasing the revenues for the rfl to allow the sport to be on the pedestal it deserves. COME ON ENGLAND...YOU CAN DO IT LADS.
