Does anyone know if there is an app to view this forum in? I keep getting an amazon pop up on web browser on my phone that I can’t seem to get rid of

Thank you

This is my first post. It is good to be here!

I am a fanatical Roosters supporter from Australia, but am also a Warriors fan since the mid 1980's. I saw the match between Wigan and Hull in Wollongong in February 2018. I really enjoyed being in the crowd with the travelling Warriors support - I have never experienced an English game atmosphere before. It was great.

Hopefully you guys will be backing the Roosters over your arch enemy in the WCC!

Just one thing - I think we have already beaten St Helens twice. We are confident of winning it.

We play the Nines a week earlier, so I imagine our team will be weakened for that. We should prioritise the WCC.

I hope Wigan brings at least another game over to Australia one day. I certainly would look to attend it.

Go the Warriors (and the mighty Roosters)

Its good to have new contributions to the site, I cant think of any Wigan fans that would want Saints to beat the Roosters. I went to the last game, K Evans looked like a world beater in that game, I thought if he fills out he will be a monster. looking at him in the NRL last year for the Eels he still looks gangly. Robinson is a top coach did some good work at the Catalans. The game against Saints should be a sell out.

I want Saints to beat the roosters. Ive cheered on all British teams involved over the years.

Anything to annoy the Ockers IMO and help the British game

Not certain I could ever cheer for Saints

You'll have to forgive some of the others. Blunt speaking is par for the course on here. Plus, while the NRL is greatly admired (and envied), we've had a few Aussies on here in the past who've been nothing but rude and scornful, so some regulars are always going to be a bit wary.

However, you don't sound like you're going to tick that box. So, welcome to the board and looking forward to chatting. Things will liven up on here as the new season gets closer.

I dunno about cheering for them, but I'll be happy to see a good contest. If Saints can turn them over (very unlikely, surely), then fair play to them. But I won't be massively invested in the result. Much like watching an NRL game, really.

I do understand this view but when Madge brought the Rabbitohs over, I found myself getting happier and happier the more severe the pasting got. I’d be just the same if the Roosters thump them too!

Easy one for me this; did Saints fans cheer us on v Brisbane, Cronulla and Roosters x 2? Absolutely not. Did they celebrate the losses and claim cheating for the win? Bloody right they did.

Will I be cheering them on? Absolutely bloody not. Will I take pleasure in Saints’ pasting? Damn straight. Up the Roosters.

Thanks for the responses everyone. A bit of a mixed bag there! I am not offended, all good. Yes, a lot of Aussies are ockers, I get that, but just note that not all of us are. Some of us are actually articulate and educated (perhaps in contrast to the popular stereotype). I am just a Rugby League fanatic, like no doubt most of you are. Us Easts fans have our rivalries like Wigan does. I would always support an English side against Souths any day of the week, but I get that may not always be reciprocated. Anyway, I am a Rooster through and through, but I always have time and passion for the mighty Warriors. I would love little more than to watch them play in a Challenge Cup final, or WCC against Souths, St George, the Bulldogs or Parramatta. Something to hopefully look forward to in the future.

What the feck is going on with the M6 south of the Orrel junction?! 45 minutes to do 3 miles. Just what I needed after what ended up as a really stressfull game
It would've been quicker to go north then down the M61.

Where's the gin..........
