    You don't like RU, great, we get it! You obviously don't watch Super 14 because your term 'yawnion' is completely laughable as regards to that comp!

    The fact you hate RU stems from an experience when you played the game, fair enough, I can appreciate that, but YOU WANTED TO PLAY RU in the first place. Why, if you hate it so much and its so boring?

    The debate has moved on from your original points, can you either keep up and add something to the debate or just leave it alone.
    I just don't get this fan of both codes,it's nothing personal against anybody.You say i wanted to play RU in the first place not exactly,i was asked if i wanted to try it and i thought why not just to see what the game was like and as you know from previous posts i was basically told to f off,that is ONE of many reasons i hate the game.

    So calling people c***s and w*****s isn't personal?

    Forgot to answer your question pal. Can't commit to the 29th, I may be at a conference in London but thanks for asking.

    No need for answers on a postcard,RL over RU every time mate,i think you'll find that most of the Saints fans will agree with me,hence them being RUGBY LEAGUE fans.

    Why even contribute to the thread anymore, you obviously don't watch RU so why comment on how good or bad it is. Its like a life-long vegetarian commenting on how good or bad meat tastes.

    I think you have this impression that we're all 50/50 fans with Union being as big a part of our lives as League. We are League fans, we spend thousands to watch our team and our collective passions and commitment to our game cannot be questioned by you or anyone else. But we like watching a good game of Union. There is no competition between the two codes, League comes first, but why that means we can't watch Union as well is beyond me.

    I watched a super 14 game this morning.

    The defence was so poor that I would have looked good. Little fast bloke runs round fat bloke - and the outcome? He scored!!!

    Manly V St George was a much much better game.

    I like the way CJ has conveniently skipped past one of my comments, I try again to see if it gets absorbed:

    Myself, Beetle, Shakey, Buddy, Grey, Bert and whoever else has stated that they like to watch Union, have stated that they like to watch Union. With regard to League, they are Saints fans. That means they observe one sport in general and follow a specific team in another sport.

    I enjoy watching Formula One but it doesn't mean that I walk around wearing a Jenson Button jacket berating anyone who likes to watch Moto GP.



    To put your entire arguement into another different light:

    Everyone who watches Eastenders should only ever watch the BBC and watchers of ITV should be shot.

    Everyone who listens to Led Zepplin should only ever listen to rock music and listeners of dance music should be shot.

    Everyone who drives a Focus should only ever drive Fords and drivers of Vauxhalls should be shot.

    And so on...

    CJ, if you hate union so much, and presuming you are old enough to remember him, what are your views on Freddy Tuilagi?

    How do you feel about Maurie Fa'asavalu?
