I thought so, I was in hospital n WiFi was slow n morphine e was kicking in thats y I referanced wiki.
I in now way mean to detract from teams that ha e won the wcc, especially the games like the brisbane game vand the widnes Canberra game, Bradford when they won there's too these wrre fiercely contested games. I probably mean the more recent wcc series n subsequent games I just feel that the nrl teams are not that bothered about it as It is a hinderance to their pre season and they don't ridk their stars.
I like the format I think that games like this should be on everyone's to watch list irrespective if who you support. I cannot attend due to a recent injury (broke 9 bones in foot yesterday) I remember watching warrington play Australia when I was younger the international game was much stronger. Regular tours. I think this also fed the Australian desire to compete in the wcc in that time now soo nrl n beating nz are their prioritys. Let's get that gb shirt back out there home nations is OK when therss no world up or nz Australia South islander tour.

Have been to all WCC matches played in Aus and that indeed was the match to remember. Brisbane had a great side but Wigan coached by John Dorahy triumphed with Shaun Edwards being man of the match. Goal kicking by Frano Botica proved decisive.
Good luck against Easts.

16304_1526976105.jpg [size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

Hardaker or Isa to centre if Sarginson can't go then.

Wouldn't have made any difference to you either way.
Your team literally only impresses on paper. Otherwise, you're a comedy act.
Just think how many SL titles Scott Taylor would now have if he'd stayed with us (plus at least one WCC).

Because Saints finished 3rd in Superleague. This game is for Champions.
You say-
‘Win a couple of games in an end of season knockout’
We won ten straight
You didn’t mention-
‘Lose a couple of game towards the end of the season’
Hull FC have lost 13 straight and counting.

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 |
