| So there's a thread on who you think will win the WCC, I'm interested to find out who you WANT to win?
There's a lot of Wigan haters out there - perhaps because we dominated the RL world for a decade, but never won anything on merit but only because we went full-time pro in 1942, we bought all the best players in the world (and left half of them in the reserves just so they couldn't play against us), we bought the RFL and all the refs, we've cheated the communist cap by millions in every year of SL, it was our fault Cas went down that year, or perhaps you just didn't like Edwards and now don't like the Tomkins clan.
Alternatively there are plenty of British fans who can see past club rivalry and love nothing more than to stick it up the ockers & send them home with their convict tails between their arrogant in-bred legs.
So who are you supporting on Sunday?

I think you will find that they didn't buy the referee or the RFL. Everything they did was completely legitimate and legal. There was no salary cap then remember!
And perhaps Wigan deserved to be in the league unlike Castleford so that is why they were relegated. You're not blaming Saints for when Castleford were relegated in 2006 so you can't blame Wigan

| I'll probably cry if Wigan lose, or if they win
Should be a fantastic game, and hopefully both teams will come out and give it their all.
Does anyone know what the weather will be like on sunday?

| There is no such club as 'St George' playing in the NRL anymore. They merged with Illawarra in 1998 to form the St George Illawarra Dragons. Therefore your poll is inaccurate and I shall not be voting.
Unless a person supports St George ILLAWARRA Dragons or Wigan Warriors then no one cares who wins.

Why not? Are neutral supporters not allowed to care?

'scuse me while I wipe a tear.

I suspect that's not actually correct.

I'm sure most fans of Rugby will be watching the game if they can. Just because you don't support a club doesn't mean you cant wish them look or cheer them on.
Good luck to both teams on the night but I personally hope Wigan bring the World title to the UK

I'm sure neutral supporters (such as myself) might enjoy watching the game.
But the OP asked the question 'Who do you WANT to win the WCC'
Many neutral supporters like myself really honestly couldn't care less about the score after 80 mins.
Even given the fact there is no such team as 'St George' playing.

Hopefully it will be a good game for both fans of Wigan and the Dragons.

| Phipps, i take your accurate if not pedantic point about the non existence of St George
but how many of us actually bother to say 'St george-Illawarra Dragons'?
some of us have busy lives and there are only 24 hours in a day
and by 'enemy' i of course dont mean in any real sense. i was raised to nurture a healthy good natured rivalry with the people of Wigan, warrington and st helens.
but if i find them on my land, i will capture them and burn them in the Wicker Man

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.
