3076_1671446335.jpg 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 |

However, a number of electrons were mildly inconvenienced.

| I have to say though, that any chart of teams which includes the Harlem Globetrotters at #2 has just turned itself into a complete joke.
That's like putting Hulk Hogan at #2 in a poll of the top 50 hardest fighters of all time, because he hardly ever lost.

It's not about the best sides, it's the most entertaining sides.

| Think they have been a bot kind on the 1995 All Blacks as well, when has rugby union ever been entertaining.

What? The self proclaimed entertainers aren't even on there?
Even Leeds of the last three years have made the lower echelons of the list.

4486_1428087820.png Newsnight 13th May 2010: "With the role of Deputy Prime Minister a non-job. Has Nick Clegg gone from King Maker to tea maker????"
I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew
Between the wars:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4486.png |

IIRC - There was paper talk of Wigan being favourites to sign Lomu around the mid nineties to replace the outgoing Offiah. Never sure if there ever was any truth in it, but I do remember feeling the excitement of such a world class player being signed.
I remember back in the mid nineties the feeling that Wigan really could attract 'anyone' in the world back then, such was their pulling power, however this co-incided with his temendous 1995 World Cup performance plus the emergence of professionalism within club RU unfortunately.
