For everything you have to put up with regarding Eddie and Stevo, us Rhinos fans have to constantly listen to Phil Clarke's constantly biased droolings of all things Wigan
He is the most biased presenter on Sky TV without a doubt,but not to Wigan fans obviously'"
At least you're not denying the Eddie and Stevo thing.
As for Clarkey, you've got the consolation that he only chips in now and then.
We have to listen to Eddie's droning prejudice for 80 minutes non stop.

I actually believe that our trophy record deserves such adulation on TV and if any of you moaning fans don't like this then try to cheer your own club on a bit more and try to emulate the best British RL side ever and deliver something to beat our records.

Wigan bought all their previous trophies and had to sell central park due to their extravagance whilst the Rhinos have won their trophies during a salary cap era whereby each club can spend the same amount on players,almost like winning trophies on a level playing field if you like, funny coincidence that Wigan haven't been as successful under these regulations
Wigans major success' were a long time before most of your ultras were even born

John Gallagher, Allan tait, Ellery Hanley, bobby goulding, Craig innes, John Bentley, kevin iro, Faimalo, Richy Eyers, Gregory, Wane I could carry on and on.....
Leeds were at just as much as Wigan difference being Leeds failed misarably plus Wigan always had a huge chunk of local lads in the squad.

More revisionist history - Wigan sold Central Park due to financial issues caused mainly by the new Whitbread stand built at Central park going way,way over budget not because of over spending on players, true Wigan were in a situation where they had to maintain success to maintain the playing staff but that was manageable - the over run on the stand completely destroyed the club finances and budgets. But lets not let facts get in the way of a rant shall we?

| Lordy, not this silly old chestnut again. i think the game went "Professional" some time ago, and i don't recall any rules to say other clubs could not try to be successful as well.... However, then as now, some clubs are happy to bounce along the bottom with no ambition whatsoever.

| Well, Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber were at it again last night.
How many times during the Stains / Catalans game (Stains lost by the way ), did they mention how well Leeds were doing in the league, AND that they had two games in hand?

| Brian Carney must have been upset that Saints were unable to pull off "the biggest comeback in years" last night against the Dragon's.
Well they were at least 8 points behind
Biggest comeback Brian?
Really?, i mean Really?

| How about World Class Leon Pryce last night (even though he looked like he was running through treacle with seconds left on the clock)!
Only time I think i've ever shouted for him to run the length of the field and score!
