| Wondered that myself earlier in the week. Pretty sure all the places I've seen it listed, it's down as St Helens v Wigan, which would probably mean we're classed as the 'away' side - but then, is white v pink really that much of a clash anyway? Probably both in home kits

Not true, Saints are classed as 'home' and will use the home sub benches, both teams are wearing home kits as there is not considered a colour clash, the only team having to change kit is Salford, as they are classed as the 'away' team in their game v Crusaders.

It's not classed as a home game for Saints, it's a neutral venue game for both sides. Whichever changing rooms we use is pretty irrelevant as neither are our "home" changing room and no doubt they're exactly the same!
Having said that I suppose they need to deem one team as "home" for kit purposes - does it swap from year to year?

Id guess the home dressing rooms are better than the away for the Wales team to feel more at home as such, just like at Wembley, the home teams dressing rooms are better.

I'm sure when we did the Wembley stadium tour last year we were told that the changing rooms on both sides were pretty much identical now, because for a lot of the games taking place there, it's a neutral venue.

Correct, thats what I meant by 'home' team, I believe it was decided by a coin toss.

| Regarding the changing rooms etc. Last time we had Millenium Magic some of the teams had to use the facilities at the other stadium next door. If we are on last then we may not have the changing rooms within the ground.

They tended to warm up on that pitch and then move into the MS ready for kick off.

Bugger. So that's two extra times we'll be wearing the horrible thing.

It may be a horrible thing but will it matter to you that much if the team is winning it's games.

Mate - After the year we just had, Adam has to find SOMETHING to moan about.
