Likewise,but it is only for this one game after all they are my natural enemy.
As you say Dunbar all British RL fans should be shouting for Wigan come sunday,anyway good luck to the Goons.

Lima, Hoffman, Richards, Roberts... head coach an Australian...plus god knows how many kiwis in the side.
Almost an insult to call them a British team really.

| It's a game that means nothing so I don't care. And I don't like either teams.

See Cronus?
And thats from a site moderator
He is right too. I'm sure it will be a good game to watch but no neutral really cares who wins.

| Although it is an aspiration of mine to live as long as possible, so that I can one day see Leeds overtake Wigan in the trophy department, I voted for Wigan.

I'm allowed an opinion and as a Rhinos and Bulldogs fan I have every reason not to care
It's not a real match anyway. I have said the same since the 1st one we were in back in 2005. It's just a distraction that messed up part of your season.... In my opinion of course

They are representing the British game and I care for that more than the Aussie game.

| Quote ="PHIPPS"I see your point Vikingsmurf.
It would probably have taken the OP a full 5 seconds to type 'Illawarra Dragons' on the end of 'St George'....and as you say we all lead busy lives.
As I'm sure you know 'St George Dragons' and the 'Illawarra Steelers' merged in 1998 to form what we now know as the St George [uILLAWARRA [/uDragons.
When referring to merged clubs I think it's only fair to mention both the teams.
The OP could even have typed 'SGI' if he was REALLY strapped for time.
Laziness is no excuse, especially on an internet forum.'"
Laziness...or the fact 99.5% of people, when asked who Wigan are playing, would answer 'St George'. Further, I despise the 'Warriors' tag and avoid using it wherever possible, and in the name of symmetry and balance have therefore shortened the name of St George Illawarra Steeler Dragons Rugby League Football Club to a similar length; that being two syllables.
Your anal pedantry knows no limits.

Link to this 'fact'?
I'm sure that more than 0.5 % of the people who were asked would have replied 'The Dragons'

People I've spoken to about Catalans Dragons generally refer to them as 'Catalans' or 'Cats' in my experience.
So how many people did you ask about this 'St George' thing?

| Well if wigan win all you will get from eddie, stevo and of course pie clarke.. I mean phil is world champions this, world champions that.. And always referring back to the game on why Wigan are so good. for the whole of the season, I just don't think I could bare it. Plus think it's a farce anyway because if it was played in aussie they would only be one winner especially if it was in there OWN stadium. So I want dragons to win so the farce of a game can hopefully be forgotten about.

So shall we forget the likes of S. Tomkins, J. Tomkins, Farrell, Hansen, Goulding, O'Loughlin, Mossop, Tuson, Charnley and Prescott, who have come through the Wigan academy and have all played under Maguire's reign. Add them to Deacon and Gleeson, who are local lads also. All of them bar maybe Tuson and Charnley are in the 17 man squad every week for Wigan. Is that british enough for you?
