| Quote ="sally cinnamon"Our rivalry with Wigan and Saints is never really authentic because their priorities are each other. They are basically in a long term relationship and we are trying to be the bit on the side, sometimes like recently when Saints went downhill a bit Wigan became more interested in us but in the end they are always going to get back together. We will only ever be more obsessed with them, than they are with us.'"
Brilliant, nail on head!

| I only ever lived in Warrington for three years of my life and I've only ever met two Widnes fans in my life. I don't really feel anything towards Widnes. No animosity nor hatred. I certainly don't like them and I want to beat them when we play them but only like I do Salford or Huddersfield.
For me it's a pick between Saints and Wigan. I'd probably say Wigan. But they have each other. But teams can have rivalries that aren't just their most local rival and more than one rival. Different fans can have different feelings of hatred towards a rival to someone else. I know fans of United in association football who hate City most but also know some who hate Liverpool most.
I don't know. Do we even have to have a biggest rival? You can't just make one up.
What I will say is that a close rival in the league table for a few years or a collection of finals against teams or even just a few memorable games with a team can spark a rivalry. Look at Chelsea and Leeds in association football again; they don't have a geographical rivalry, but they hate each other.

Ok if you include the Locker / Ward cup etc, but in competitive games you're wrong.

Are they the brother and sister that go to most Widnes games ?

| Quote ="rubber duckie"Here's 2 pieces of trivia.
Warrington have beaten Wigan more times than any other team.
Until sometime around the early 1990s, Warrington had beaten Wigan at Central Park more times than they had beaten us.
I think that tells you who Warrington, over the years, regarded as the biggest rivals.'"
Oh dear and I suppose in this parallel universe Wire won Super League every year for the past 5 years.
Never let the facts get in the way of a good argument.
Firstly Saints have beaten Wigan more than any other team and secondly Wire won about 40% of their games at Central Park. (Check the facts on 'cherryandwhite.co.uk')

Are these the same facts that you used to declare Warrington were definitely signing James graham over the off season?
Using wigans own stats: wigan.rlfans.com/fusion_pages/in ... age_id=472
Warrington have beaten Wigan 89 times, saints have beaten them 92 times ... 92>89 ...

| And you seem unable to grasp what I said.
The stats you refer are incomplete.

| In reference to the stat you supply...I did point out that Warrington had beaten Wigan more times a central park than they had beaten us until a period prior to 1990 not 2012!
Im sure Wigan no longer play at CENTRAL PARK!

I recently chatted with phil kinsella who last interviewed james graham.
he asked the question and he did reveal there was an interest from SL.
The oz papers were also printing about a move.
He wouldn't tell him who it was only adding he was happy to stay in the NRL.
Make of it what you will.

That graham trained with the saints team over the winter break? The aus papers print everyone is on the move. Like with football in this country, it's endless speculation cos nothing is really going on - and of course there was interest! I am sure Warrington even made him an offer ... But that doesn't mean he was ever going to sign!
Anyway, I'm going to trust the internets statistics, until shown otherwise!
