I do think there was a split camp in Australia but that’s now history and its back on with thre season. Hopefully Tony Smith noticed this and he’ll improve it in the game against France. Personally however I just don’t think players like to travel half way across the world to play rugby.
James Roby spent most of his time missing his young son and wife whilst we all know what was on Keith Seniors mind!
Sad to say that after Leeds (of course) Saints were always my favourite team - primarily because they play the kind of rugby I really like.
Our traditional enemies I think were alway Wigan, Bradford (and to a much lesser extent these days) Warrington.
Still I do hope we get one over on them tonight. I suspect our result against Wigan was somewhat flattering as someone forgot to tell them the game had started until it was 20 minutes too late. Think we may be onto our first loss of the season...

I have to say i dont hate leeds, and as a student went to watch them. I think its due to growing up in the late 80's/early 90's when Leeds and Saints were the only teams with half a chance of beating wigan! If you were'nt our main (only ) real rivals now i would probably still wish you all the success of coming 2nd

Saints are the big rivals at the moment, which is probably what matters to the players. To me Wigan will probably always be the main enemy, althoughh when I lived and worked in Leeds, the Bradford results always mattered because of the large number of Dulls fans I knew.
