If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

I'm just going to sit back and enjoy it... 
I'm not a "RL needs a strong Wigan v Stains" crap person. Its much like Wendyball when England are out of a comp people look to and give the Scots or Welsh support. They revel in English failure, much as i delight in Scottish and Saints failure...
As Ian Wooldridge once wrote about the Aussies, "When you play the Aussies, you don't stand on ceremony, you stand on their necks". I'll enjoy watching them squeal, just as much as they would enjoy us struggling.... |

I'm in the other camp but I do see why people think the other way.
The game of RL doesnt have to many house hold names and we need everyone firing on all cylinders.
I personally want epic Wigan vs Saints derby's not the damp squib affairs of Leeds vs Bradford

I think at this moment in time Wigan v Saints derbies would be anything but epic!
They must really be counting their blessings that they aren't facing us at the Eitihad next month. |

Bring anyone on. On form we can beat anyone so I'm not bothered who we play.

I want a strong, thriving Saints team.
Not because I have any like for them, but I love Rugby League with a passion.
This sport is the best in the land and desperately needs to grow. Having a floundering Saints team is not good.

most of the teams in the Sl and the second tier can claim to have an honourable history
saints are no more important to the future of RL than Hull, Keighley, Oldham, Bradford, Halifax, Wakefield ....
RL needs more team sof a better standard WHOEVER they are.
not even Wigan can claim to be more important than any other team ! |

It's more fun beating Saints when they've got a good side. As for the health of RL we need 10 strong clubs and sides. At the moment we have 3. We need the likes of Saints, Hull, Catalans and Bradford to step up their efforts and for the smaller clubs to decide whether there is any point in the playing in SL and either shape up or ship out. The competition badly needs a strong London club on and off the field and a financially viable and competitive Toulouse. Both I think are more important for the future of the game as a whole than even Wigan and Leeds. |

Ha, Well if they are headed there then they had better change all their avatars about the 75-0 scoreline because this lot we have in our current squad would rack up 100 points on the 2005 team.
Karma isn't it?
Rugby League moves in cycles and we are in the good repetition at the moment whilst Stains are flagging. |
