Rivals round

[lingaro]

Warrington v Catalan lmao doesn't get bigger rivalry than that.

There’s definitely a bit of a competitive rivalry developing between the two over the last few years.

Well observed.

We don’t need make believe rubbish. Rivalries go beyond Geographic locations. For me growing up, Saints v Bradford was a competitive rivalry based upon the success of the two and comfortably our biggest game besides playing Wigan. It was then replaced by Saints v Leeds when Leeds’ successful period took off.

There was someone who wanted to put money into a Manchester team (Rangers).

What's the issue here? Cats v Wire, 1st v 3rd, looks a cracker.

Quite so.

Meanwhile Saints (give it to Walmsley) v Wigan (consistently 'outstanding', but only according to A Lam) is somewhat less appetising, despite being a 'real Derby'.

What is the issue with you.

Its the Rival Round with -

Cas v Wakey

Hull v Hull KR

Leeds v Huddersfield

Wigan v Saints 

Leigh v Salford 

All local rivalries so that leaves two other teams I.e Warrington v Catalans to play each other.  Or should the round be titled ‘Rival Round except for one game’.

Or were you winding us up you little tinker

 

[lingaro]

Penny drops. 

[JM2010]

If it's rivals round then 1st taking on 3rd should have should have some rivalry there. More on the line than Leigh vs Salford or Cas vs Wakey. 

Are Leigh and Salford or Leeds and Huddersfield even rivals?
