Its a funny old world the Yawnion world cup has thrown up a real conundrum for me on who to support......so here's a quick run down......

England - The heartland of bigotry and ignorance towards Rugby League over the last 120 years, the amount of players & clubs they've banned for playing Rugby League and times they've tried to kill Rugby League off at ANY opportunity, Even club rugby union fans dispair at the corporate and high society types that sing the slavery song "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" at twickers. So no chance here.
SEE the book "Rugbys Great Split - Tony Collins".

France - The Nazi collaborators in all their glory, making Rugby League illegal and stealing all their assets, so no chance here. To this day they still lock dressing rooms at stadia when the League boys need to play at them even as recent at last year when the touring Kangaroos had to get changed in the car park due to this - this incidet nad many others have been discussed in the French & European Parliaments this year.
SEE the book "The Forbidden Game - Mike Rylance."

South Africa - One of the last bastions of Racism in sport, the rugby union in South Africa is one of last bastions of white man, and still rife with racism even to this day.
SEE the book "Struggle Rugby, A Sport in Crisis - Frik du Preez and Jannie Engelbrecht"

Argentina - We are still at war over the Falklands with Argentina, they still burn the British flag oevr the dispute on regular occasions, is it right to support a team who you are at war with?

All in all I think that after the Super League Grand Final i'll just go the pub and watch the tiddlywinks instead.

How very dare you! ;)

It maybe the darkside and all that but at the end of the day its England and imo you should always support your country no matter what sport it is.

No contest I think theTwickers rah rah ideology suits you down to the ground, perhaps you should trade in your Saints season ticket for a Sale Sharks one;)

I'm supporting nobody. I couldn't care less who wins as the sport doesn't interest me whatsoever.
