I remember having the same view when watching Melborne v Saints at the JJB in 2000. I went supporting Saints, right up to the point where the Saint's fans started chanting "If you all hate Wigan clap your hands".
It was around then I started cheering for Storm or anyone else that Saints may be playing. |

[quote="dontknowwhyibother"] What do I think to the RL people who continually downplay everything in RL, and influence the stupid sheep to think like them? I think they are one of the reasons that RL will always be a minor sport.[/quote]:12806.jpg |

| The English moan when it’s a French referee and the Aussies moan when it’s a kiwi referee. We just don’t like anything other than our own shocker  |

We just don’t like his interpretation of the game that’s all. Every referee has a different interpretation. Richard Silverwood for example impressed the Australians so much during his world club challenge match between Leeds and Melbourne, he got called up to referee the ANZAC Test.
Not surprisingly the Australians won that game thanks to Silverwood’s style of refereeing. It was a different story come the four nations final when Tony Archer was the referee. Saying that I do hope that Mr Archer never ref’s an England game again. |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

When it comes to refs its not about who is good and who is bad, its about finding the best from a terrible bunch. Lets be honest they are all rubbish.

The question is...would you prefer a competent ref who is biased like all Australian refs when reffing a Test in which Australia play or biased like many English refs who have a history of disliking Wigan or Alibert who is always neutral but not so competent. I prefer Alibert. And, He has improved.

You'll be ok. He's easily influenced Alibert - he tends to make decisions based on the crowd or what his touch judges tell him.
Good luck anyway. Even though I'm a Saints fan I hope you win.

Terry Albert should referee the WCC for sure. It's the only fair choice, as he isn't English and isn't Australian.

I would always want Saints to beat an Australian team...or even a Yorkshire team in a final. |
