I don’t dislike Aussies…league is their number one sport after all. I do loathe St Helens. Couldn’t give a hoot about ridiculous patriotism. Come on Penrith. Saying that Saints will walk Super League again.

I totally agree with you wirecation. I think if we are wishing teams from other country's to turn us over like that, we might as well be anti-English towards our clubs.

I bet you cheered Wigan on in all their WCC games.

They played ok against a pretty weakend St.George team. If they play like that against Penrith they'll be in trouble. But i hope they do beat Penrith as when it comes to us vs the NRL i'm firmly behind any English team. And if Saints do win, watching the Aussies pile on excuse after excuse is always fun

If wigan win, then it's better than an Aussie team winning.

Quite impressed esp their speed at play the bal.Frightening and shoe in for SL.40 degree heat tho at Penrith could be a bridge too far.

The match should be a good comparison between the game and teams in north and south hemispheres. Hope the Saints team wins, however, can we endure the Saints speccies ongoing crowing about their wonder team. Doubt it...

My enemy's enemy is my friend. Who's the biggest enemy, Saints or the Aussies?

Re: Saints v St George / WCC : Sun Feb 12, 2023 4:15 pm  

I'm not bothered who wins.

Pretty much this.

For me, it's a game that we, the English, seem to place much more importance on than the Aussies have ever have, or ever will.

From what we see of the Aussie league, are we really expected to believe, even if they somehow manage a win, that Saints are the best RL club side in the world?
